AI sackings reach New Zealand, which will use it to eject 14 percent of government staff

Mitoo Bobsworth

Savings?

And when they have to spend millions on consultants to fix all the fuck ups & miseries AI will inevitably generate, notwithstanding the almost guaranteed blowout of costs in implementing this flight of ideological fancy, I predict New Zealand will, at the very least, wind up with zero savings and even less efficiency. If the Interisland ferry debacle is anything to go by, then expect more fiscal bungling and feeble rationales from Willis

Re: Big bet, indeed

I, for one, wish her the worst of luck for re-election, if only because gambling with public welfare using a technology she is largely ignorant about will almost certainly guarantee bad odds.

Trump admin pays wind developers to quit, back fossil fuel projects

Mitoo Bobsworth

"The answer, my friend..."

"... is grifting on the wind."

On the subject of songs, is the national anthem "Star Spangled Banner" or "Shit Spackled Bummer" - It's hard to know for sure these days.

WARNING: Oracle's AI obsession could mean higher prices and worse support

Mitoo Bobsworth

A.k.a -

How to dig your own grave. Anyone still buying the A.I. sideshow is flushing their money down the drain, not to mention any ethical or humanitarian pretence they had left. As usual, what started as a halfway well intentioned notion has been hijacked by naked greed & unbridled self interest.

Trump wants to take a battle axe to CISA again and slash $707M from budget

Mitoo Bobsworth

Veni Vidi Deliqui (I came, I saw, I failed)

This is just like the fable about Nero & Rome, only Trump is burning the World, and the rest of the USA is fiddling.

Immaturity in action

Tech bros are like 5 year old getting fireworks - they love to play around with them without considering the consequences.

Apple signs meaningless deal to make some less-important parts in America

Mitoo Bobsworth

Damage control for Apple's extortionate brand identity margins.

Getting Trump to understand tech profit margins, especially when it comes to a brand like Apple, is like explaining card tricks to a dog. Pretty sure they would be better off in the long term by just paying him off now.

Trump administration spoiling for a fight over global satellite regulations

Aaaaww

The USA STIIL doesn't know its made itself 'persona non grata' to the rest of the World.

AI slop hits new high as fake country artist goes to #1 on Billboard digital songs chart

Mitoo Bobsworth

George wasn't out by much...

"The tune had been haunting London for weeks past. It was one of countless similar songs published for the benefit of the proles by a sub-section of the Music Department. The words of these songs were composed without any human intervention whatever on an instrument known as a versificator."

Mitoo Bobsworth

The joke isn't funny any more

It's gone from sublime to ridiculous to downright f***ing idiotic. Icarus was a pragmatist compared to these people.

Tesla board wants to grant Musk $1T in stock, Norway wealth fund says nope

Mitoo Bobsworth

A scam by any other name...

... is still a scam. 'Grant' Musk $1 trillion for his only talent of being the second biggest attention sucking black hole on this planet? F**k off.

AI layoffs to backfire: Half quietly rehired at lower pay

Typical corporate idiocy

They know the price of everything & the value of nothing.

Trump's workforce cuts blamed as America's cyber edge dulls

Mitoo Bobsworth

Re: The hand wringing continues

"... crossing their minds..."

You're being very generous!

Mitoo Bobsworth

The hand wringing continues

All the media I see reinforces the notion of how weak America has become in the face of a stupid bully - Trump keeps slapping the USA around, & it keeps on taking it.

Apple's ultra-thin iPhone flops as foldable iPad hits a crease

Mitoo Bobsworth

iMissed

Apple have been missing the mark with their iThings for a while now - they no longer have Mr Jobs' knack for nicking good ideas & applying his 'reality distortion field' to them. Now they're mostly a reiteration of past glories.

Mitoo Bobsworth

Say what you like about Artificial Intelligence -

but from my observations, the natural stupidity that surrounds it it still has the edge

Trump admin says tech companies are abusing H-1B visas, slaps $100k a year to allow entry

Mitoo Bobsworth

Shut up & eat your broccoli

AI web crawlers are destroying websites in their never-ending hunger for any and all content

Mitoo Bobsworth

It ain't the fault of AI

The only real factor at work here is good old short sighted, self interested, undiscerning human stupidity - as per usual.

FTC chair accuses Google of treating GOP's emails as spam

Mitoo Bobsworth

It's what they do best

When America sinks, Trumptards will accuse the rest of the World of pulling the plug - nothing will ever be their fault or their problem, and every critique of their flagrant grifting & self entitled idiocy is always met with the same generic sound - "WAAAaaaauuuuugggghhh!".

Intel’s deal with Trump includes a penalty clause against selling off its fabs

Mitoo Bobsworth

The Trump regime reminds me of a joke

A man jumps off the top of a skyscraper - as he plummets past the 10th floor he says "Well - so far, so good."
