This is 100% intentionally dumbed down to Trump's level. Would actually be surprised if Macron wrote this himself, rather than a team laboring over how they can dumb it down to a level Trump will comprehend, without stooping so low even he recognizes it as insulting or manipulative.

Nice, I was able to send an email to that.

No-one is forcing you to install Adobe software. Stop crying about other people liking choices.

Mate I'd live in Banks' Culture without a heartbeat's thought if I could.

The problem isn't AI as a concept, it's the underlying societal disregard for ethics in the face of profits.

Die Epstein Files sind mittlerweile die Ablenkung. Egal wie schlimm was auch immer in dem Moment passiert ist, die Hälfte der oppositionell ausgerichteten Leute schreit "Epstein Files"!

Jeder den's interessiert weiß, dass die Files vernichtend für Trump sind / sein werden. Sie zu veröffentlichen ändert daran gar nichts. Seine Basis wird ihn glauben wenn er schreit "Hoax".

Ne, in der Mitte:

Nihongo ga dekimasu ka? / 日本語出来ますか

Aber alles gut. Ich auch nicht. Hab nur die Gelegenheit zum Klugscheißen genutzt. Gomennasai!

Fehlt da nicht ein が?

There might be some people thinking along those lines, but I'd be careful to tread into the territory of conspiracy theories. To me this seems a lot more like a case of "The bad implications are pretty obvious when you think about it - but we can't let that stand in the way of making a profit!".

I'd like to add that this doesn't even necessarily have to be intentional.

I'm certain the current bubble will pop sooner rather than later, but by that point (and today already as well), all the infrastructure, the data centers etc. will already have been built.

And they will not just disappear.

Some might be scavenged for parts to be sold off, but far more likely, I unfortunately think, is that governments will (be lobbied to) step in, and prevent the loss of hardware, of companies, and especially of jobs. They obviously won't start the money-burning, consumer-facing ChatGPTs & Co again, so what else can we do with all that hardware that's sitting there, looking for a purpose?

Exactly the thing the person above me said. Implement the surveillance state at an unprecedented scale and speed, because those GPUs need SOMETHING to do, lest all that capital be wasted.

There will be a bailout, and we'll all suffer for it.

Yeah! Because famously, labor cost is what the high US healthcare costs go towards!

Sorry, unfortunately can't help you there. My matrix server is not federated, I remember back then I created an account on matrix.org specifically to read these. But maybe they got deleted in the meantime?

Anyways, I have been really happy with continuwuity, to the point that up until now, I haven't even looked at tuwunel again. The maintainers of continuwuity seem really nice and engaged, and both from a usage and stability point of view, as well as for the actually surprisingly fast release cycle, I have no complaints. I found and fixed a bug a couple weeks ago, and the dev process was also very friendly and relaxed.

In short: while I don't know how things are on the tuwunel side, I'm very happy to have gone with continuwuity and have high hopes for the future of the project.
