At yesterday's US House subcommittee hearing on risks of AI, there was a lot of enthusiasm for privacy enhancing ML technologies. That seems like a valuable direction, but it alone isn't enough. A company training privacy enhanced ML systems over your data ... still has your data, and we don't have to accept that.
Apropos:
@GottaLaff Who wants to go work in Russia? Get some time off, relax in jail, as a political pawn? 😬 That said, I do have sympathy for the journalist. 😔

"I think the big story of the last American decade has been the attack on institutions, and the failure of those institutions to repel the attackers. But that story is driven by a key institutional actor - the Republican Party - injecting people who openly despise those institutions into positions of leadership. Trump is the most obvious example. But every Trump needs his Jim Jordans."
~ Don Moynihan
@realTuckFrumper Two people on MSNBC this morning were pushing basically the argument by inference, that rising anti-semitism around the world should give Israel carte blanch in Gaza.
I stand with Jews right to exist and have happy lives but if you want to live surrounded by people who hate you due to the circumstances of the creation of Israel that’s your choice. And it’s not helped when you wholesale oppress Palestinians for your security and think it’s justified.

@JDS Don’t you know that Democrats are to be blamed for everything screwing up the corrupt #GOzP agenda, outing us, making us look bad, looking like a much better alternative in comparison, looking more intelligent, acting like adults, messing up our break the rules, might makes right, cheat to win agenda, and supporting the Constitution, how old fashioned. 🤡 <-GOP.

My question would be. "So you're saying if Nancy Pelosi had been deposed in the same manner, you ard saying 5 Republicans would come to her rescue?"
It's the democrats fault when guys like him leave a wet spot on their pants after urinating.
@jon This is the sad fact that Capitalist Corporations always in search of max profits and satisfied investors will pass any employee income gains onto the consumer arguably at a greater magnitude than the pay raises themselves. That’s why today I paid $6 for a fast food burger, not a meal for lunch. 🤔
@xankarn Sing him a song: 🎹Luna-tic, Luna-tic, Luna Luna Luna, Luna-tic, Lun-a, a Lunatic, worse than that you’re a big, old, smelly, fat, sociopathic, narcissistic, prickkkk. 🎹

How to talk to #Trump. Free debate tip. The beauty of this one is that it works for basically every statement he makes.
“Part of me thinks you’re pathetic or possibly just sick and unable manage the affairs of our country. But, then again, if I were facing 91 criminal indictments in three jurisdictions, I might be fighting against reality, too. So it makes sense that you’re too weak now to speak honestly to your fellow citizens.“
