Does anyone even believe these stupid tariff announcements anymore? How much more likely is it that he cancels them last minute, or drops them after less than a week, or delays them for another 90 days? He has less than zero credibility.
Vague hand-waving bullshit either written by an AI or the next writer to lose their job to one.
If and when AI is competent enough to replace 50% of the workforce, do you really think it is going to need an equal or greater number of people working full time at jObS tHaT hAvEn’T bEeN iNvEnTeD yET to manage it?
No. We’re going to feed the migrant workers to the gators and Generation Brainrot is going to spend the rest of their lives working in the fields and meat packing plants. The 0.1% will see line go up, and the rest of us will get Soylent Green before we get UBI.
We could subsidize the farms that grow actual food crops picked by humans at a high enough rate that the food is affordable and the workers are paid reasonably well. And do that instead of subsidizing farms that grow feed corn, ethanol corn, and grain/soy for export.

Amodei is an even bigger grifting fraud than Altman. This is “research” contrived to produce clickbait articles with the goal of making Anthropic’s product seem more impressive than it is. In fact I would argue this exact bullshit is Anthropic’s product at this point. Peddling magic beans to credulous venture capitalists with the promise of the ArTiFiCiAl sUpErInTeLliGeNcE at the top of the beanstalk giving them infinite ROI Real Soon Now. Better not miss out on the hype bubble new paradigm!
Just wait until all the venture capital OpenAi raised on a valuation that assumes they will singlehandedly achieve the singularity in 2027, replace all human workers by 2028, and convert 75% of the Earth’s crust to paperclips by 2030 runs out, they can’t operate at a loss anymore, and have to raises prices to a point where they’re actually making a profit.
Guess he was really leaning into the whole “impersonating a police officer” thing.
I’ll answer your question with two more questions:
What’s the opposite of a rat king? What’s the opposite of an ant mill?
Also I have to question your whole premise of the relationship between religion and cult. Where a cult is the bad kind of something and a religion is the neutral, default kind.
A religion is just the final form of a successful cult that got big enough and old enough that it no longer needs to take the drastic “cult-like” measures to restrict its members and separate them from society- because it has thoroughly infiltrated and colonizied that society to such an extent that being born into that society is enough.
That’s how I read it too at first- and as bad as ‘erotic role play’ with a LLM chatbot sounds, the other one is so much horribly worse.
I would also like to say, fuck Glenn Greenwald.
And here is a better source on why fuck Palantir: Behind The Bastards
Bag of little isopod shaped robots. They are fast moving with nuclear batteries and tungsten carbide shells and lots of sharp edges for chewing and burrowing through flesh. They can also dig into the ground a few inches and hibernate like cicadas to protect an area. Not wireless networked but instead have onboard processing for voice commands, use sense of smell for IFF and echolocation to coordinate their swarming.
Couldn’t stop a gun, but they are a deterrent against using it because if you shoot me we both die but you die in a more horrible way.
Not sufficiently fascist leaning. It’s coming, Palantir’s just waiting for the go-ahead…
Why does this have such strong LinkedIn energy?
Does she know…? Does she know she’s an ad?
Being a lifelong pessimist, I am getting really tired of article headlines telling me that [x] is worse than I think.
