Gonna hafta decide: do you want humans who can think or not? If you want thinkers, take the red pill; if not, do nothing. #phronesis https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/mit-warns-ai-undergrad-assignments31 Aug 2026 00:12 +0000at://did:plc:rhl2loethmeapkpumtoforso/app.bsky.feed.post/3mudmnja5lc2khttps://bsky.app/profile/gerrit82.bsky.social/post/3mudgkydkks2tIn Rome, they're looking at the catacombs to help vulnerable citizens recover from the #climate heat.

The 3rd, Troy, arrived recently. I've read the standard translations of the Iliad, but I'm looking forward to this. One reviewer said he's one of the few who wear their profound knowledge lightly. Fry's subject love & humour shine brightly. 🤩30 Aug 2026 19:56 +0000at://did:plc:rhl2loethmeapkpumtoforso/app.bsky.feed.post/3mud6ea6nds2shttps://bsky.app/profile/gerrit82.bsky.social/post/3mud3g74ebs2sI'm rereading #ThichNhatHanh "Being Peace" & came to his famous poem, written after he had heard of a girl of the boat people who threw herself in the water to drown after being raped by pirates.
