Well, except for one (actually) tiny detail, ALL the "tech" people I follow are strongly and loudly worried about AI's dangers to human society, etc. The people described as "tech" people are just AIdolizers with AIdiotic public stances that may genuinely wreck everything, starting with the poorest and otherwise most vulnerable people.
Also, all the progress that we may have been, or intended to be, doing regarding decreasing energy consumption to save our livable habitat from being eradicated by climate change, is currently being entirely wiped out by the new AI-farm server halls with VASTLY increased electricity consumption that recently have and will soon be built, to the point that they build entirely new power plants dedicated to just a server hall each because the general power grids can't handle their demands.
So yeah, it's not just the killing of art and trust in any remote human-to-human communication, experiences and education, but there's also pure survival as a species. Cool, huh?
The latest from Doctors without Borders (MSF), is a Voices from the Field: ───── In Gaza, “we did not have time to bury them”
On the morning of 8 June, Israeli forces heavily bombed the Middle Area of the Gaza Strip, Palestine, including Al-Nuseirat refugee camp. These deadly Israeli attacks reportedly killed at least 270 Palestinians and left about 700 wounded, according to the local health authorities. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams, along with medical staff at Al-Aqsa and Nasser hospitals, treated hundreds of severely injured patients, many of whom were women and children.
One of our colleagues, who has been working as a medical doctor with MSF since 2013 and lives in Al-Nuseirat camp, recalls that horrific and traumatising day when he lost many of his friends and neighbours. He has asked to remain anonymous. ───── Read the story on their website, here: https://www.msf.org/gaza-we-did-not-have-time-bury-them
The people of Curnê Reş/Hilvan supporting freedom, democracy, equality and environmentalism right now excitedly await the outcome of the local election rerun forced by Turkey's electoral board:
"Women! Life! Freedom!" and fireworks in celebration now as it seems by preliminary results the anti-racist "DEM Party" won also the rerun forced by Turkey's electoral board in Curnê Reş/Hilvan:
Reportedly huge urgent deployment of brutal repression forces into Tehran, to stop the people from celebrating that President Raisi may have died in a helicopter crash:
Video showing conditions when the search and rescue team began searching for President Raisi of Iran after the helicopter crash, plus how it looked about half an hour later. The rescue work is being impeded by there not being Internet generally available, which would be because of government policies.
Heavy rain continues in the area of Varzaqan, East Azerbaijan province of NW Iran, where President Raisi may have been killed in a helicopter crash.
Aryen TV reports that Iranian media has claimed that parts of the helicopter have been found, but that the Red Crescent search and rescue workers have denied that claim citing very poor conditions for searches due to the heavy rain.
Iran's (counter-)Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) are being sent out into the heavy rain to find and rescue oppressor Raisi of Iran after the helicopter crash:
Gorgan, northeastern coast of Iran, also fireworks for the potential death of President Raisi, at now over 6 hours after the crash and Raisi still not having been found.
Reminder that prooobably anyone getting caught celebrating will be sentenced to be State-murdered by the theocracy's courts-system.
In the hometown of President Raisi of Iran, Mashhad in the northeasternmost Razavi Khorasan province, the people celebrate with fireworks the potential death of Raisi in the helicopter crash this evening:
I believe reporting about events as accurately as possible helps move the world in a positive direction.I believe voluntary mutual aid is better than imposed mutual destruction.Resistance to oppression is inherent to all life.Liberation can not be imposed no matter how well intended, as that only changes whose will is imposed on others.Visually impaired.
