France24 (English) covers the #TechBros and #SiliconValley connections to the disgraced convicted #pedophile #JeffreyEpstein - and some prominent CEOs and #Tech legends have a lot to answer for. Turns out the ‘PayPal mafia’ are deeply involved. The principle lapse of judgement here appears to be continuing to interact and correspond with #Epstein long after his conviction for child sex trafficking and abuse. #CSA #PayPal #BillGates #TimCook #ElonMusk #JeffBezos #ReedHoffman #SergeyBrin

Just a reminder amidst all this noise and chaos…Meta, Google, Snap, and TikTok all purposefully designed their social media products to addict children and teens with no regard for known harms to their wellbeing, and how that mass youth addiction was core to the companies’ business models.

Remember Qanon and Pizzagate? You know, that crazy conspiracy that started on 4chan that held that liberal leftists and democrats were actually #pedophiles that feasted on dead babies. Uh-huh, that one. Well…it turns out it was all projection after all. The founder of 4chan is mentioned in the Epstein Files. The real #pedophilia problem is rich, old white #republicans and #TechBros who’ve been shifting the blame and scapegoating for years, decades actually. You know who’s NOT in the Epstein Files? Drag Queens, Trans folk, the Obama’s, Mexicans. There are, however, a couple of immigrants - like #ElonMusk and Peter Theil. #RepublicansOwnThis #EpsteinFiles

Image features a bsky post including the MAGA conspiracy that originated on the 4chan website that claimed the country was secretly run by a satanic, peophilic cult that raped and murdered children. The post then notes that the founder of 4chan was friends with Jeffery Epstein.

The trend since the recent emergence of the #Transformer foundation models is this: as more information accumulates in the hands of the #AI #TechBros, less knowledge is retained in the minds of the ordinary people. And this trend is growing exponentially, alarmingly.

The ability instantly to call up #information using AI to answer trivial, concrete questions in the short term is fundamentally different from the acquisition of #knowledge and the application of the mind to solve substantive, abstract problems in the long term.

My dual color keyboard is visible under one of my videos, in an feedback report to YouTube. I wrote: "how do I deactivate this trash?"Cut out of the AI response "feature" creators now can use inside the YouTube app.

The AI response says thanks for letting me know. I haven't played in a while.

Well… here, in the #Fedi of course. Scarce evidence of it in any other places. All the more reasons to lobby govt and officials to ditch #TechBros and get on the fedi. Just wishing here… Oh, and an clean broom swept in the ABC of course.

"He was an early supporter of Trump,
and before that he was writing the famous essay Against Democracy and suffrage for women as well. It's hard to parse, all of his political connections, because there are so many of them. But I think he has been instrumental in not only Trump's rise, but also this turn that we've seen over the last 24, 36 months of the tech industry turning right."

Wajahat Ali asks Caleb Ecarma,

"How is Peter Thiel such a big node here?"

He replies (lightly edited):

"Well, he's worth a lot of money. The funds and the people who he chooses to invest his money in tend to do fairly well. You know, like the companies that he chooses, obviously, J.D. Vance being someone that he, you know, mentored and brought up and funded."
