Osama bin Laden’s one concrete strategic goal was to end the American military presence in the Gulf and on the Arabian Peninsula. A generation later, Donald Trump’s war on Iran has apparently delivered it for him: **(SEMI-)CROSSPOST: RICK PERLSTEIN: Bush’s War Is Finally Over: Al Qaeda Has Won** & U.S. airstrikes are apparently now being launched off of carriers supplied from Diego Garcia 3000 miles away from Tehran, and from Muwaffaq Salti in Jordan 900 miles from Tehran… 1/ America Related

Listen if your model of what has happened is that the EAs have launched a coup I think you have very bad judgement. Here is what actually happened: a very large number of people have slowly grown aware of the potential AI has to radically transform human society. Most people who contemplate this are uncomfortable with this—because they do not like change, because they do not like ceding agency and control to something they do not understand, because they distrust Silicon Valley, because they fear the apocalypse, because they fear the dystopian-lite future many AI futurists advocate as a the “… Related

The Economist estimates that AI has created about 1 million US jobs so far, against roughly 200,000 AI-attributed layoffs since mid-2023. The new roles pay more. Data-center installation and maintenance ads run about 40% above comparable work. Workers with AI skills earn a wage premium of over 60% (PwC). Companies most exposed to AI grew their headcount faster than the least exposed. Aging societies are running out of workers. Median age is already over 40 in Canada and much of Europe.

PISA is a long-standing set of tests that are taken by students all over the world. It can be used to compare countries and to see how countries evolve over time. In Canada, we have results per province. In math, Quebec is usually best, and it is still the case for the latest results (2025). Yet the numbers fell. You see a clear drop starting in 2022, and it continues. The drop is worldwide. It is not wealth. Most countries got slightly richer, or had relatively modest decline.

The technology powering ChatGPT had already launched prior to November 30th, 2022. It was just wrapped in a different interface. Very few people paid attention. Why did ChatGPT explode in popularity? Because of its obvious chat interface, which everyone intuitively already knew how to use it.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
