Google employees are making memes and sharing them internally about how bad its AI sucks and how much they hate using it. The memes are going viral within the company. Is that good www.404media.co/google-emplo...
The SpaceX IPO is going to mint thousands of new millionaires. Elon Musk alone is going to make hundreds of billions of dollars. Who'd not getting rich? Anyone who lives near the pollution-spewing turbines that power the company's AI ambitions. from @mollytaft.com
S&P 500 rejects SpaceX, also blocking entry for OpenAI and Anthropic arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Yeesh. 👀 “.. we find limited evidence that data center development improves fiscal balances, employment, or business formation.” (via @talsmith.bsky.social) download.ssrn.com/2026/9/1/738...
Oh hell yeah @amnesty.org comes out swinging: "Amnesty International finds that standalone generative AI systems... are fundamentally incompatible with IHRL. As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems." www.amnesty.org/en/documents...
The growing number of AI devices aimed at seniors make surveillance seem like a condition of care, @claraberridge.bsky.social tells @wired.com: "“There might be consent, but it doesn’t necessarily make it an ethical process where choices are so constrained." www.wired.com/stor…
Google DeepMind continues to treat their employees' profound moral concerns, which the company once pledged to honor, as an HR problem to be swept aside rather than a crisis for its future.
An excellent interview with @heidykhlaaf.bsky.social on safety engineering (in contrast to the clown show of "AI safety"). This discussed abdication of standards and safety revisionism is paralleled in computational science & engineering with abandonment of verification and va…
Public ownership as bailout and moat. They are definitely getting the Trump administration they paid for. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
You can find our analysis of how AI is infiltrating humanitarian tech stacks at various level (and what to do about it) in this @accessnow.org report www.accessnow.org/ai-infiltrat...
Why are robots making kill lists, and how the hell do we stop them? I spoke with @docmattmoudi.bsky.social from @amnesty.org and @marwasf.bsky.social from @accessnow.org about the demands in their joint statement on AI and warfare, and the path towards a better future. Listen …

I'm sorry but publishing a report that "loss-of-control" incidents of LLMs "doubled" in a month and then sharing that your methodology is counting X posts where people say that happened is just hilarious. And then you have an X-axis that reaches 12 tweets?! Also hilarious.
I think so much about @abeba.blacksky.app framing AI as potential benefits alongside actual harms. But with this round of discourse it's so disorienting that it is all now actual harms in exchange for...potential harms?
I keep hearing an argument that the closer someone is to the development of AI the more likely they are to think AGI is close. Two observations:
Warning: using AI to summarize the Encyclical is in fact a mortal sin.
At Google IO. I gotta say I'm not sure what I expected, but watching a monopoly fashion itself as a consumer company is wild. They played "I Just Can't Get Enough" unironically to announce a set of new financial transaction "agentic" protocols. Cheery, next gen rent seeking.
It's funny to me that the AI guys thinking about the paperclip hypothetical, are actually acting it out in pursuit of AGI.
For Y2K, the Chinese government made the heads of airlines be in the air on the turn of the millenium. Wondering what the equivalent is for AI bosses. Should Dario be made to live in Boxtown?
So, uh. Will @hf.co sue OpenAI for negligence?
Typoed "shock market value" when writing about the Anthropic IPO and actually yeah that should be a thing.
Was curious what the pod bros would say about the AI discourse. It's amazing how obsessed center left analysts are with polls UNTIL we talk about AI and then they turn into 17 year old boys talking about accelerating acceleration and superintelligent AI.
Center = Alix Dunn. Left = members they follow (green edges). Right = members who follow them (blue edges). Top = mutual follows (orange edges, slightly larger). Drag any node to reposition; click to open that profile.
