That's oligarchy apologetics bullshit to keep us from changing the system. No need to make things more democratic if we're blaming the majority of people.

*Won the popular vote but still a minority (<50%) voted for this.
It was a system of checks and balances, but the Democrats went along with consolidating power. So while yes, they aren't the direct cause, they were the adults in the room and they failed in that responsibility.
Every empire's days are numbered, but I don't think I can count that high
Don't even need trials apparently.

First, Microsoft isn't using this yet but even if they were it doesn't work in this context. What Google did was they wrote a fitness function to tune the Generative process. Why not have some rubric that scores the code as our fitness function? Because the function needs to be continuous for this to work well, no sudden cliffs. But also they didn't address how this would work in a multi-objective space, this technique doesn't let the LLM make reasonable trade offs between complexity and speed.
The point is to get open source maintainers to further train their program because they already scraped all our code. I wonder if this will become a larger trend among corporate owned open source projects.
How do they expect to reign in AI's "unchecked power and autonomy" when we hardly do that for corporations or billionaires?
And by extension, your opinion is not my problem to fix.
My city of Fresno does not have enough beds, so maybe that is true for wealthier cities with lower unhoused rates. The beds offered are sometimes less safe than the street: https://calmatters.org/housing/2025/02/california-homeless-shelters-purgatory/
At this point it can't be worse than what is happening now.

How exactly does blaming your neighbors create meaningful change? I don't care whether you think it's right or wrong, I am asking how it actually helps improve the system.
