ICYMI: One in four consumers canceled over AI data - 52% will pay 7% more for trust: Usercentrics surveyed 11,000 consumers in March 2026 across seven markets.

Shout out to all the developers out there resisting the pull to become a project manager of a team of LLMs.

Your ability to accumulate skills and experience will prevent you from "falling behind" all those who are now spending their days writing markdown and managing slop PRs.

Part of the issue with AI is how it can be used to rewrite history or get a version of the truth that is not entirely truthful.

I asked 3 LLMs why Microsoft is called the evil empire. This is the last paragraph of their answers:

Claude : "It's worth noting the company has changed substantially under Satya Nadella, who took over in 2014. Microsoft became one of the largest contributors to open source, acquired GitHub, built strong developer goodwill, and largely shed the "evil empire" reputation. The nickname feels dated today — though some would argue the aggression just moved to subtler forms like cloud lock-in and Teams bundling."

OpenAI : "It's worth noting that Microsoft's reputation has changed significantly since the era of leaders like Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. Under Satya Nadella, the company has generally been viewed as more cooperative with open-source software and competitors, though it still faces scrutiny because of its size and influence."

Mistral : "Over time, Microsoft has worked to shed this image, especially under CEO Satya Nadella, by embracing open source, supporting cross-platform development, and promoting corporate responsibility"

So do you agree that Microsoft is now great and Nadella can walk on water?

Toho says it has no plans to actively introduce AI at this time.

The company acknowledged AI could improve efficiency but said using it in creative work remains "a very troubling and difficult issue."

It also noted ongoing legal concerns, adding:

"There are also various legal challenges that remain. Therefore, at this stage, we do not intend to take the lead and actively introduce AI."

NC Newsline: Police use of artificial intelligence grows as rules lag behind. “As law enforcement agencies increasingly embrace AI, some civil liberties advocates, legal scholars and policing experts warn that the technology could amplify surveillance, introduce hidden biases into investigations and make it harder to challenge evidence in court.

Apparently Hasbro has begun demanding that CHILD ACTORS in their cartoon series like Peppa Pig sign over the rights for the company to use #AI to clone their voices for future commercial use.

CHILD ACTORS are being asked to sign away control of their voices.

I think this should be illegal. Parents should not have the legal right to sign away their child’s voice or likeness to be turned into corporate assets forever.

People think the #Matrix was about robots. It wasn't. It was about operating systems.

#Windows is the blue pill.

You take it, and everything stays comfortable. Pretty icons. Friendly sounds. A setup wizard asking if you want to save your soul to the #cloud. Updates appear at the worst possible moment like a Marvel post-credit scene nobody asked for. Your #PC reboots. You cry. #Microsoft thanks you for improving your experience.

#Linux is the red pill.

You wake up. You see how deep the #RabbitHole goes.

At first, it is terrifying. The #terminal stares at you like Darth Vader asking if you know the power of the #CommandLine. You type one wrong character and feel like you accidentally launched nuclear missiles.

But then something changes. You realize your #computer actually belongs to you.

No ads in the Start Menu. No #AI assistant spying harder than a reality TV producer.

No mysterious background process eating half your #RAM like Pac-Man after three energy drinks.

You choose what gets installed. You choose when #updates happen. You choose what your #desktop looks like.

You are Neo.

Windows #users are still sitting in their pods, downloading the latest mandatory #update called KB-Whatever-Again, wondering why their printer suddenly speaks ancient Sumerian.

Linux is not perfect. Sometimes Wi-Fi drivers behave like a side quest in Dark Souls.

Sometimes you spend two hours fixing a problem just to feel smarter than everyone else.

But that is the point. The red pill was never about comfort. It was about #freedom.

And freedom means occasionally reading a forum post written by a Finnish guy in 2007 who solved your #problem and vanished forever like a #Jedi master.

Welcome to Linux. There is no spoon. Only #sudo.

The WSJ exposes how tech extracts wealth from the masses via fake narratives. This completely demystifies the Western AI myth: it’s not a decentralized productivity engine—working-class wages have been stagnant since the 1980s.
​Instead, it’s a hyper-centralized, multi-decade infrastructure driven by defense sectors and Peter Thiel for biometric tracking, data harvesting, and mass surveillance. An elite panopticon scaling on top of a hollowed-out economy. #AI #Surveillance #Macroeconomics

A faceless hooded figure in a dark chamber manipulates glowing code above an open archaic ledger, symbolizing exclusive access to restricted knowledge. The figure stands at a wooden desk under a single cold beam of light. Surrounding dark shelves hold leather-bound books in chained cages. Below a large branching 'all-seeing eye' symbol on the stone wall, a shadowy mass of figures reaches up. Two masked acolytes adjust gear mechanisms, emphasizing control.

Tweet by OpenAI: Sol is our new flagship and a step function better than GPT-5.5. Terra delivers performance competitive to GPT-5.5 at 2x lower cost. Luna is our most cost-efficient model, delivering strong capability at our lowest cost. Together, the GPT-5.6 family gives people and developers more choice in how they balance intelligence, speed, and cost.
