#Israel totally lost it. The country wants to strip independent journalists of their citizenship, and a mob is in front of their homes demanding their death. How can't they see that demanding the death of critical journalists is (rather obviously) itself a thing to be critical of, and not something that one should cheer and participate in? https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/sep/19/ovations-venice-death-threats-israel-extreme-responses-to-naza-documentary #Gaza #NAZA #theGuardian #Palestine

Większość z was skończy marnie, ale to jest poświęcenie, na które jestem gotów, by powiększyć swój majątek i władzę w świecie

• tak bym podsumował wywody Marka Zuckerberga na temat tzw. #sztucznaInteligencja.

Dlaczego? Tu fragment cytatu:

"Ludzie będą musieli się dostosować, a będzie to stanowiło wyzwanie” – powiedział #Zuckerberg, odnosząc się do zmian na rynku pracy spowodowanych nowymi technologiami. „Jednak im więcej osób będzie miało osobistego asystenta, który w niezwykle inteligentny sposób uczy nas nowych umiejętności i pomaga nam dostosować się do zmian, tym płynniej ten proces przebiegnie".

Warto zauważyć: słowo #superInteligencja zostało użyte 60 razy.
