Kevin Kelly points a new way forward into the Age of AI

Published by skeptic

Sign up for Peter Leyden’s Substack The Great Progression: 2025-2050 roughs out a new grand narrative of our historic opportunity to harness AI and other transformative technologies to drive progress, reinvent America, and make a much better world. Every time I have started a new project over the last 30 years, pretty much the first person I go to for advice is tech guru Kevin Kelly. He is one of the most original thinkers I have ever met in a long career of talking to a lot of remarkable thinkers. I can honestly say that every time I talk with Kevin, I learn something that I had never thought about before. Kevin (no one who personally knows him ever refers to him as Kelly) was the person who got me to San Francisco in the early days of the digital revolution to work with him and the other founders of WIRED. He was the magazine’s founding executive editor, and his instincts on the next big story made it a must-read global brand in that era and …

“I Have Contempt For Such People”: Musk Rages At ‘Virtue-Signaling’ Ukraine Hawks After Spat With ‘Traitor’ Mark Kelly

“I Have Contempt For Such People”: Musk Rages At ‘Virtue-Signaling’ Ukraine Hawks After Spat With ‘Traitor’ Mark Kelly

Published by skeptic

Elon Musk raged against Ukraine war hawks during a Thursday appearance on Fox News, after host Brett Baier asked him to defend calling Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) a “traitor” for pushing to send more US aid and weapons to Ukraine, following a trip to the country.  BAIER: “Democratic Arizona Senator Mark Kelly posted on X about his trip to Ukraine to push for continuing to send US weapons and support there, and you posted that he was a traitor. Why do that?” MUSK: “Well I think somebody should care about the interests of the Untied States above the interests of another country, and if they don’t, they’re a traitor.” Baier then noted that Kelly is a “decorated veteran, a former astronaut, a sitting US senator.” To which Musk replied, “It doesn’t mean it’s ok for him to put the interests of another country above America.” Musk drove the point home, saying “We should have empathy for the thousands of people dying everyday in the trenches. For no movement in the lines. For the past two …

“Go F**k Yourselves”: Megyn Kelly Eviscerates “Faux Journalists” Joe & Mika Over Trump Meeting

Published by skeptic

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news, MSNBC’s Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski have suddenly decided they want to be all diplomatic with president-elect Donald Trump, after openly calling him a nazi days before the election, and it has not gone down well for them at all. The pair announced that they travelled to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with Trump, with Scarborough saying “It was the first time we have seen him in seven years,” adding “We talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit.” You were literally crying and saying Trump was a fascist nazi two weeks ago.
