suggesting the developers who instruct agents would be the ones liable ‌for harm.

But, of course, not the top of the chain. They’re too powerful to be held liable.

I go for hour-long walks around my neighborhood every day. The number of people who walk staring at their phones is surprising to me.

So, why… oh, forget it.

Market capitalization of Apple: $4.977 Trillion USD As of September 2026

No, they DO know that.

The only way to communicate anonymously across the internet is Tor.

300 searches a month isn’t nearly enough and $10/mo. for unlimited is too much. Especially since they’ll probably raise it in a couple of years, and it will keep going up.

the [62] “tractor-trailer-size” generators were “impossible to miss” and certainly were not there when inspectors last visited in December 2025.

Each one of the generators cost roughly $1 million. With shipping, installation, etc. the total was probably north of $100 million for these generators.

So, they were fined less than 2% of what it cost them to have these installed. Pocket change, indeed.

It’s probably the one thing AI can do, considering how much they all fuck up.

We’ve all heard about breaches in security by hackers affecting so many millions of people, but I never hear about that data leak being used against the innocents. Like, it has no effect on we the poors.

They seem to hold our data for ransom, and steal crypto directly from the rich, because of course they do, that’s where the most profit is. And, that is why they’re so dangerous… to the rich.

If you dig into this a little you’ll see plenty of accounts of The Com associates doing awful things against children, but I suspect that’s a very small part of what a few of them do, it’s just hyped and pushed forward to make us hate them all. In fact it’s quite possible that within the larger community, those few players are themselves, shunned, the same way Christians shun but don’t condemn the more radical members of their cult. But, the only way to hear that side of the story is to be in The Com. We’ve all seen this happen in online communities--outsiders condemning an entire large group for the actions of a few, who are shunned within the group.

Remember, we’ll never get the whole story from one side, and the story we do get will be biased in favor of the side that tells it--there will always be distortions, lies of omission, and outright fabrications and lies. The same way we’re wary of content now because of AI, we should be skeptical of any claims made, and the more powerful the claimant, the more skeptical we should be that we’re getting the whole story.

Instead, they hire the people who do it.

In wandering around the entrance to the rabbit hole, I came across the Wikipedia article about The Com, which is a lose umbrella organization that includes many hacker communities, including the one accused of hacking the FBI.

There’s this:

The Com is connected to a group of skinheads active in Russia and Ukraine responsible for random attacks on people and acts of murder.[14] Edward Coristine, a high-ranking employee of the DOGE, US government organization, was a former member of The Com.[15]

It’s still Gulf of Mexico, it’s still Lake Ontario, it’s still Department of Defense, and it’s still slop.

“Ah, I see, so it’s one of those reversible designs!”

Super intelligence indeed!

My pin is eleven digits, a number I’ll never forget, and I enter it every time. No face ID for me.

Also, don’t call the cops unless getting arrested is better than whatever is happening. Because, they’ll use any excuse to arrest you no matter how innocent you think you are.

He said AI is helping workers produce more output, but the quality of it is so bad that their colleagues have to spend more time fixing it

Everyone predicted this. Why the fuck didn’t the billionaires? What is their major malfunction?

I suppose I should quote a part, since no one else will read the dreaded wAlL Of tEXt.

Is this short enough for you?

AI helps people find more vulnerabilities in existing code. To address those vulnerabilities, people use AI to generate patches. The resulting pull requests are then “reviewed” by AI. That is, the more AI is in the loop, the less we understand the code base. The mystical “human in the loop” often is nothing more than a rubber stamp.

So what happens when things go bump? Complex systems fail in complex ways, and debugging code is an order of magnitude harder than writing code. Debugging somebody else’s code is harder still. Trying to debug large, complex, distributed systems consisting of components that are effectively opaque to your entire organization is going to be impossible.

And, there it is.
