If you're into audiobooks, I strongly recommend libro.fm instead - it's all DRM free downloads, so you never lose access.

Watching this feels like a masterclass of diplomacy. Zelenskyy is talking directly and respectfully to the Fox audience, while trying to clearly explain why Ukraine can't just bow down to faulty peace deals without question.

Calling on everyone else in the West and the global economy: keep your eyes open for opportunities to support the Canadian and Mexican people.

They are standing up to this corruption and fighting it where it stands. This is going to hit them hardest first, and they deserve our support.

I wrote a comment explaining Tariffs on a Fox News YouTube video a few weeks back, and the entire reply chain was people arguing with eachother about how tariffs work because "Trump said it's a tax on other countries, so that's how they work"

"Democracy dies on live TV" - wow that headline hits hard.

This article is what US propaganda looks like folks. Mashable should be ashamed.

Literally all AI companies do this to run their services. Except you can actually download Deepseek and run it completely securely on your own devices. You know who doesn't allow that security? OpenAI and the other US companies currently being screwed.

and it's open-source!

OpenAI was started to be as open as possible, and to prevent the kinds of capitalism-driven Closed-AI development that they have now themselves become.

My personal opinion is that closed AI systems are only good if the owners are trustworthy. And in the long-run, no single owner can be trusted. There are risks with letting everyone copy and customize AI, however the worse danger is that the power gets too centralized with one single company.

They actually can't. Being open-source, it's already proliferated. Apparently there are already over 500 derivatives of it on HuggingFace. The only thing that could be done is that each country in the West outlaws having a copy of it, like with other illegal materials. Even by that point, it will already be deep within business ecosystems across the globe.

Nup. OpenAI can be shut down, but it is almost impossible for R1 to go away at this point.

This was in the same speech where he said that the Holy Spirit was working through Trump to do all of this, and that Trump should have a third term and beyond.

It's becoming obvious that we should be treating Trumpism as a religious cult, not just a political movement.

This is actually beyond absurd.

Yeah totally agree. He has proven to be one of the slimiest people on the scene. I mean, he is pretty much throwing his colleagues under the bus in this statement too lol

Meanwhile the Trump administration has asked Australian academics to justify that their US-funded research lines up with Conservative values

I would just like to push back and say that the Internet was an open public project, and it has helped countless people across the world. Every single problematic tech that people are pointing to at the moment are closed-source commercial projects.

That is Capitalism at work.

$271,285 raised of $10,000 goal. That's some pretty good odds of success

It's only a proposed bill (thankfully), but definitely one to keep an eye on.

Really hope Jesus makes his comeback via an appearance on RuPaul. The bible does say it will be unexpected.
