    "Norms?" the GOP don't care about norms, they threw them out with their values when they elected DJT. "Laws?" well, first of all, our laws & law enforcement are about 20 years behind cyber criminals–so unethical behavior by AI, which can benefit the GOP, is going to be VERY hard to create new laws around, and even harder to police. Esp when you consider that the GOP controlled House has no interest whatsoever in legislating.

    Abraham Lincoln was reported to have said: "You can fool some of the people some of the time but you can't fool all of the people until about 2023 when AI will be used to generate the media being published and broadcast at large by the MSM."

    The US has a lot of uninformed voters, on both sides. This AI is going to mess with their political perceptions and in some cases their cognitive dissonance. Even if laws are written and enacted pronto, it will be difficult at best to enforce such laws. Good luck going forward.

    Think about the hot buzzword, "AI". Artificial by definition is not real. In the digital world, it is actually automated plagiarism. Sure, there is a similarity of memory and decisions represented by digital AI, but intelligence is essentially an analog process, not digital. The world has become accustomed to confusing popularity (hits) with value (money), which is a collateral problem. Originality is as palpable as sanity. The verification of a hypothesis by statistical means does establish a correlation at a certain threshold of correlation (eg: p<.03), but if you do regressive analysis, that significance is distorted. After all, most analysis can't differentiate causation from convergence due to some mutually foundational relationship. Blending those two issues (AI and sponsorship of content) clarifies the affect that the existing economics of media sponsorship is devoid of retrospection and commitment. Pay attention to the "scope" of issues (that is also an endemic issue with overall software development these days. Middleware shifts responsibility and an "exception" is actually an error.) Control your scope, and control your thoughts. Good focus, Jen, bravely alter scope. Our freedom to be ignorant is in trade for accepting the entitlements of those with expertise. Far more is unknown than is known.

    Scientist have invented magnetic tape that can NOW hold terabytes worth of recordings. (Magnetic tape is what we used to use in VHS and Cassette tapes).
    I can’t wait for cassettes to make a comeback. Imagine the mix tape one can make with terabytes worth of songs.
    Awfully hard to AI generate on old school magnetic tape. Time we stopped trusting digital cameras. Now every clip is going to have to be verified. Which isn’t hard the Ai generated data will show up in the digital data.

Sen. Murphy: Proposed Relief Bill ‘Could Get Us Through What Could Be A Very Hard And Deadly Winter’

Published

on

By



Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss the proposal of a $908 billion COVID relief bill by a bipartisan group of senators as 14 million Americans could lose unemployment aid by the end of December. Sen. Murphy says, “This amount of money could get us through what could be a very hard and deadly winter. This isn’t big enough to be able to get us to the point where the entire country is vaccinated. But it might be enough to make sure that millions of Americans don’t go hungry, don’t starve, don’t die out on the streets this winter when their jobless benefits expire and when protections for evictions expire.” Aired on 12/01/2020.

‘ERODING our democracy’: Morning Joe reacts to SHOCKING NYT Editorial on Trump’s election meddling

Published

on

By



The New York Times editorial board is out with a new series tracking 12 categories of democratic erosion in the United States, highlighting the “worrisome steps” it says President Trump has taken toward undermining American democracy. Measuring on a scale from zero to 10 — with zero representing a strong, though imperfect, democracy and 10 representing a true autocracy — the board has moved one category, “manipulating the law to stay in power,” up to Level 3. The Morning Joe panel breaks down the ominous warnings from the piece as the country heads toward the November midterms and the 2028 election.
