> Is the same outrage present for your cell-carrier, credit card issuer, email provider, and the dozen other data-collecting orgs you assumably interact with throughout the day? All of these require a search warrant.

This is not the plagiarist political commentator. From the author’s about page: > I'm a software engineer, father and wishful amateur surfer. If you've come seeking my political views, you've found the wrong Fareed.

There’s also no evidence that current AI can think or have thoughts.

Does it? For me shutting out other visual stimuli makes it easier to visualize in my head. I can still do it with my eyes open but it feels less real, like a hologram in my head rather than imagining I’m seeing it in front of me

Have you ever seen a pretzel (or anything) in a dream?

Yes. Your rights do not include entering Greenland illegally. They do include things like being given food and water in prison until you are deported. Protected rights are inalienable, you don’t need to do something to qualify.

Who said criminally negligent? If the whole point is testing its exploitation capabilities and you don’t want it exploiting the environment to gain internet access, that’s why you air gap, to remove the possibility

If you want safety and prosperity, why vote in a convicted felon who pardoned thousands of insurrectionists who went on to reoffend and end up back in jail for violent offenses and crimes against children? Why vote for a moronic tariff plan

The disaster of the Iran war will be the legacy of Trump 2. A war that started because Netanyahu convinced Trump there was an imminent attack and fed us false intel on nuclear capabilities. That sounds like torching it to me. ZOG as a consp

Ok so you probably wouldn’t know that foreign born service members make up 5% of our military, most of those becoming naturalized citizens while serving. They’re not shirking their responsibilities anymore than natural born Americans who do

The US military has been an all volunteer force for half a century. Have you served?

You have no evidence that self improvement can work at generalized tasks. Go is a simple game with a clear win condition, but deep strategy and near infinite permutations of how a game plays out. Winning a game of Go is a task well suited t

It’s commendable that they let people give them training data for free?

Sure. I never said guns were a bad metaphor. I meant a worm was more comparable than an “entity” or “digital slave”. Agentic AI is putting the gun on a robot dog, taking the safety off and handing over fire control to an algorithm. If you e

> Most countries have MUCH higher standards for immigration and their citizens much better off for it. I think your math is off. The US is in the top 10 for GDP per capita, 99% literacy rate when the global average is 87%, the poverty ra

Rights and benefits are two different things, surely you aren’t that dumb. Do you think non-citizens can get Social Security or a US Passport?

Because if that were the case they should have just kept the existing staff that already had the requisite knowledge instead of letting DOGE fire 400 people from DHS who did this kind of thing. You have no backing for your presumption eithe

You can always relinquish citizenship. No one is forcing your child to be a dual citizen if they are born abroad.

Guardrails as security controls are such a joke. They remind me of the Pirates of the Caribbean scene about the Pirate Code… “They’re more like guidelines”

They are more comparable to a computer worm than anything else. Very strange (and disrespectful imo) to make the jump to slavery. A gun can’t be used at all inside it’s safe so I’m not sure that makes sense. A better metaphor would be makin

Don’t forget the corruption and low income locals who won’t be able to provide any meaningful pushback
