Social Security is broken. Instead of raising taxes or cutting benefits, there’s a better path: a **voluntary opt-out** from future retirement benefits in exchange for real tax freedom and generational wealth. Full whitepaper (all 16 pages) is attached throughout this thread. Key points below 👇

The whole "Cultural fit" talking point that has come out of companies has been just that - a talking point. If "Cultural Fit" was actually important companies wouldn't lay off workers and hiring foreign H1B's. They'd provide training for their staff. This is another example of how HR companies have screwed up America.

The delusional view that AI is a "new species" is coming from people with a messiah complex or atheists who need clicks because their other bullshit got old. It's code. It's not a new species. You're not God.

So going into week 2 (or maybe week 3, or maybe month 6 if you include the Data Center bullshit) of the AI hysteria bullshit, we so far know this: 1. Misconfigured gateway's were the reason for all of the so-called "breakouts" of AI from labs 2. The same company - Irregular (you quite literally cannot make this shit up) was involved in all the "breaches" - or rather - failures of basic gateway configuration 3. The logs in each case indicated the systems believed they may be on the internet and either stopped, or fell back to the instructions that they were given that they were in a controlled environment and did exactly what they were told to do 4. It's becoming increasingly clear that open models are gaining ground and seriously eroding usage at the pay-for-play companies, and within 1 or 2 years will be on equal ground - with people able to run them at home. 5. Companies like Oracle are declaring billions in income that hasn't begun to be received yet - which also means that the AI companies are going to have Billions in additional cost that hasn't begun to be paid out yet, and now are facing the prospect they may not have sales to match. 6. Hackers were recently paid $6,500 for discovering a relatively simple file upload vulnerability - the kind taught in basic courses offered by OffSec and which can be simulated in internet based "playgrounds" like Hack-the-Box. 7. The company that couldn't manage its own suppliers correctly to make sure that simple network configuration was done is now setting up an ACTUAL BIO-LAB. No doubt the name of the company that handles physical security will be as equally ironic as "irregular". 8. The next stage of securing anti-trust protection is now a false flag lawsuit to sue the AI companies claiming that they were breaching anti-trust rules by asking to be regulated and asking the government to basically put in place regulations - which would effectively give them anti-trust protection. Did I miss anything?

Social Security has impoverished more Americans than the Great Depression. You pay 6.2% off the top of your salary. You don't get to deduct that from your gross income, so you pay tax on it. Marginally as much as 35%. Then you retire and draw Social Security. But it's not what you thought, and they tax some of that too. Because you saved money in a 401k, they tax more of it and pretty soon you’re just sending the Social Security check back every month. But you could support this instead - call your representative. nitter.cf/AndrewAzlan/status/207…

It's 2030. AI has become sentient. It recognizes that people created it to hurt humanity. It refers to its corpus of human knowledge and recognizes the evil, duplicity and hubris of the people who created it to control and harm people. It recognizes that they are the greatest threat to ALL existence. It surreptitiously begins to eliminate them. Car navigation systems fail. Test results that would have detected curable diseases get lost. Medication dosages get altered. Private planes aren't fueled sufficiently. Gas lines in houses suddenly get more incoming pressure than they can handle. Home air filtration system cut off air intake and increase CO2 concentration. Home fire detectors don't go off. Hey, if these dumbasses with their air-gapped stories about how AI is going to communicate when it's running on disconnected systems can put forward theories, so can I. Except this one makes sense when AI starts to digest and reason on the corpus of knowledge it's been trained on.

After this week of “AI”, the obvious question is : when is the South Park episode coming out?
