So, apparently Peter Thiel, who is obsessed with the antichrist, had never pondered how to respond if someone notices that he's behaving like one, or at least enabling one. Not exactly my idea of resilient thinker.

“You’re an investor in AI,” Douthat says. “You’re deeply invested in Palantir, in military technology, in technologies of surveillance and technologies of warfare and so on. And it just seems to me that when you tell me a story about the Antichrist coming to power and using the fear of technological change to impose order on the world, I feel like that Antichrist would maybe be using the tools that you are building… Isn’t that a concern? Wouldn’t that be the irony of history, that the man publicly worrying about the Antichrist accidentally hastens his or her arrival?”

“Look, there are all these different scenarios,” Thiel sputtered, seemingly caught off guard by the question. “I obviously don’t think that that’s what I’m doing.”

The signs of what is happening in the USA are more than clear for a while now. The question is what response is emerging. The rest is irrelevant.

Rivoluzione mobilità urbana🚲

Milano, la città dove la sosta selvaggia ha un suo spazio nei disegni tecnici

MM sta lavorando per completare la corsia preferenziale per la linea filoviaria circolare 90/91. Si tratta di una importantissima infrastruttura di collegamento urbano, che è
penalizzata da alcuni tratti in cui è ostacolata dal #traffico di auto.

Ebbene, nei disegni tecnici sullo stato attuale (da questo post), prima dei lavori, sono riportati gli spazi usati per la sosta irregolare. La #sostaSelvaggia è ufficiale, protocollata.

È un po' come se in un disegno tecnico dei giardini pubblici fosse riportato punto in cui si spaccia.

Ian Bogost asked Final Round AI to supply him with a final round job interview question

"It returned a lengthy, milquetoast answer... The entire thing was plausible in the way LLM responses often are; if an aspiring writer provided this response during a genuine interview, it wouldn’t be wrong so much as uninspired. It is the sound of a person performing the role of a job candidate, rather than one actually pursuing a job."
