We always knew all the bullshit about "going green, reducing carbon emissions bla bla" was greenwashing and PR but now we have some quotes to pull and throw on your faces if Trump ever goes, the wind changes direction and you pretend to care about the world again.

Ive actually notice this with gemini vs copilot vs chatgpt. Gemini had the most wierd bias and such and while I take everything with a grain of salt ai wise its more so with gemini. I think I use it the most though as I want to see what it will say about something.

Glad I'm not part of that shit-show anymore

Don't be evil

It’s wild that “we’re cooked” started as straight meme terminology but now literally describes the future of the human race

Political views

Porat supported Hillary Clinton for president in 2008 and 2016, hosting fundraisers for her at the Dakota in New York City.[54]

In 2011, Porat expressed her support for increased taxes on the wealthy and declared on the topic of significant spending decreases that "we cannot cut our way to greatness".[55]

In March 2025, San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie named Porat as co-chair of "The Partnership for San Francisco" alongside Laurene Powell Jobs.[56]

Gotta love liberals being liberals. You can always count on em being complete wastes of space in the face of fascism.

She's a democrat

Potato tomato in that context.

Dems are PR for the oligarchs, Republicans are their secretaries

Please choose nuclear then, you fucktard.

Oh, look, all those "climate pledges" over the past decade or so are in the bin as soon as they think it's socially acceptable to do so.

You no longer live on Earth?

It's almost like corporations don't give AF and will burn society down for a few bucks.

If the wind ever changes I hope that people actually call them out for their bullshit and avoid believing their future BS.

Because I think it is very clear that to realize the potential of AI, you have to have the power to deliver it. And we have underinvested in this country, and to stay ahead, we need to actually address it head-on.”

I understand the ugliness of overall conference message/purpose, but those comments could be interpreted as polite.

Still, next election, as DNC alternative, there needs to be a Humanist America organization. Purpose is to provide UBI to Americans, but to also gain the political power to do so. All weapons, climate terrorist energy, and those who humanize Bergum, including at this conference must have 99%+ of their corporate shares nationalized. Zionist loyalty oaths by policy relevant people invalidate citizenship, and zionist agenda political funding get all wealth confiscated.

Only commensurate recusatory massive donations to Humanist America can prevent the nationalization seizure. Anyone opposing the nationalization as inappropriate, also zeroed out.

The idea that corporations must provide polite loyalty to climate terrorist fascist regime as a calculated politeness, must be significantly recalculated.

I’ve listened to Ruth Porat speak before and nothing about this article matches that. It feels fake or taken wildly out of context. As a general rule she doesn’t say much that isn’t already publicly released, and this doesn’t match any of the statements google’s released recently.

For the uninitiated, she’s the kind of person who would say “you bring up a great point” before then explaining why you’re wrong. So it feels disingenuous to not include the full sentence in the quote, and then to also not link to the source video is sus.

There's a techbro (sis in this instance) idea that the faster we use AI, the faster AI will find a solution for climate change. The stupidity in that is that we already know the solution. We just have to execute on it.

This is one of many examples of a class of problem where the technology is the easy part. There's room to improve the tech certainly, but the technology sufficient to solve the problem is already well understood.

The hard part is how to get people to actually do the necessary changes. To consume less, get fewer gas cars on the road, increase the amount of nuclear, hydro, solar, geothermal, and wind in the grid, and minimize coal and gas use. To reduce land use by cows, and increase land use by trees and native plants.

But maybe AI is the secret here. We have tools that are in the hype moment whose training data already contains several reasonable solutions to climate change. Maybe if AI "finds" the solution to climate change, people will finally listen

How exactly do they "own" it?

They won't. Nuclear has long been thrown in as a "maybe we'll do this". The economics have long run against it.
