Fascinating in the way the very best information is; one of the exceedingly rare gems that make the doomscrolling addiction worthwhile.

@markhburton@mstdn.social"Iran sends experienced and skilled negotiators to the talks, at some personal risk to their safety given Israel’s addiction to assassination, the US is represented by a pair of clowns — Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and real estate partner Steve Witkoff.
They are, to put it mildly, well out of their depth and their presence would be suitable for comedy were the issues at stake not so serious."

@cdarwin@c.imMeta is facing $1.4 trillion in damages in a social media addiction case brought by four states.
Thirty-three states have banded together to sue Meta,
alleging that the company was exploiting its young users on Instagram and Facebook for profit,
including by collecting data from children without parental consent.
Four of those states—California, New Jersey, Colorado and Kentucky—also claim that the company misled consumers about the addictive design features on the pla…

@inthehands@hachyderm.ioWe should take seriously the possibility that the dependence and psychological spiral in the QP are not just an accident, but the result of conscious product design on the part of AI vendors.
Capitalism’s two favorite business models are (1) systemic capture and (2) addiction. We know AI corps are aiming for (1); that’s their explicit investor pitch. Consider the possibility that they’re aiming for (2) as well. Cigarette companies worked hard to make their products •more• addictive. Do we really think these companies with trillions of dollars of investor pressure on them aren’t doing the same?
There’s a lot of ways machine learning could create a different psychological experience for product users — and right now, vendors are pointedly not choosing those alternatives.
