Ted Said the Oceans would be Gone by now: Isn't it a Crime?


On LinkedIn of all places, a post went on about making 'climate deniers' criminal based an article written by, Steven Day at commondreams.org: 

"If you’re a reasonably young person who is opposing measures to address climate change for reasons of financial or political gain, be afraid. Be very afraid.

Largely out of public view, there is a growing advocacy for treating certain forms of climate change denial as a crime."

Is the author threatening?  a Criminal act?  Like purchasing a gas burning car, or the wrong type of lightbulbs?  Or how about saying out loud, "I'm not convinced that climate change is my fault.  Why don't these climate crimes apply in China, India or Africa?"  

State of Fear?  

We should fear the enforcing body that would inflict these laws.  It would be a
"centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition..."
And then there is this, also from  the article:

"No one would argue that every MAGA loudmouth shouting in a tavern that climate change is a hoax should be hauled to The Hague for trial."

REALLY? Political, much?

"...climate change denial as a crime..." wow.  

Bill of Rights?  Constitution?  This could be one of the most dangerous opinions to ever hit the press in the last decade.

So of course, I asked the Ai in the Sky to write an essay on making climate deniers criminals utilizing the sourced article as research.

Enjoy.

How AI, Remote Work, and Covid Reshape the Workplace


"We are moving away from the "normal" industrial economy where labor, equipment, and capital produced reliable outputs; a handful of media gatekeepers provided reliable access to people's attention, and it was relatively easy to keep winners and make plans." - Dror Poleg

The adage, "If somebody else says it, it must be true..." works here.

I've been going on about how the convergence of the fear of Covid, the work from anywhere movement and now Ai/LLMs annihilates current social, and business models.
