They're trying to fix that Q4 earnings report already...
And looking to get some of that sweet AI money President Musk and VP Trump are giving out to I'm sure.
Does Google not know what a "pledge" is?
I pledge, to do the thing, that makes the red line go up. Profits go BRRRRRRR. Human lives go......away when we kill them all. But profits go BRRRRRR!!!!

RIP
Killed by Google [AI]
Maybe they should change their name to "Pacific Bell" something fitting like that. Or AT&T. Or Maybe something a little more adjusted to their near future... "Blockbuster"

I think I want to read more Sabatini the next weekend. No modernity at all - and plenty of such "pledges" always turning out a lie.
Provided I won't learn a person who went offline almost a month ago is fine (other than severe burnout as expected). The only mutual acquaintance (who is supposed to know their real address etc) hasn't yet read what I wrote them. I've went offline for longer periods of time, but it's still scary.
If there's a conflict and I get to choose whether or not the side I'm on has killbots, I'll definitely choose killbots. Especially if the enemy has them.
This is not about kill bots. This is about defining you as a terrorist threat to the US empire because you are friends with someone who criticised them on the internet. And they will wait to bomb you until you are home, so your family is also murdered along side you.
