Read up! 22 Theses of Ultrahumanism, by @ROBnotBOB22 These serve as my message to the world on Ultrahumanism. Inspired by the scientist and priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin - ultrahumanism is a middle way between Transhumanism and (Posthumanism) Deep Ecology. It is time to take a deep look at what it means to care for each other as astoundingly human creatures capable of miracles! open.substack.com/pub/cosmopโฆ

The Austin American-Statesman has endorsed Gina Hinojosa over Greg Abbott. Over the last few years Abbott has become a mini me of President Trump. He has used his pulpit to demagogue against Muslims. He spent many billions on border security with no bid contracts. He is using his position to denigrate public schools instead of building them up. He has become a puppet of the Texas Public Policy Foundation.
Before this year very few Texans had heard of Gina Hinojosa. At the start of the year no one gave her a chance against Greg Abbott. She does not flinch when she is slandered by the Abbott campaign. She would be a bright light advocating for quality public schools.

Q: President Trump said that you and Ken Paxton should debate... What are your thoughts on that?
@JamesTalarico: I agree with President Trump. I think Ken Paxton should debate. The president is saying he should debate. Fox News has said he should debate. The people of Texas have said he should debate.
And I think it's mysterious that Ken Paxton hasn't responded to a request for a debate in 85 days. I hear that people are getting really concerned about the Attorney General. Iโve heard rumors that he has a rare medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice.
I know Ken Paxton has asked for proof of life from me. I'm asking for proof of spine from him.

Labor force participation rate never recovered after 2008. Universal basic income was the only way to prevent things from getting this bad, and UBI is the only way to prevent things from getting much worse.

โWisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the nonconceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.โ

Regulations restricting American AIโs rate of improvement donโt โhelp prevent misuse by bad actors,โ they ensure bad actors from other countries have more powerful AI to attack us.
What we need is properly liability laws/enforcement for AI harms, both deliberate and accidental.
Just as we regulate planes, cars, and medicines, we need safeguards that help us realize AI's incredible potential while reducing the risks. They wonโt eliminate every harm, but they can help prevent misuse by bad actors. Weโre not where we need to be yetโand this deserves much more of our attention.
