My favourite interview is this week Sam Altman, OpenAI’s CEO, saying he was surprised by the data centre and AI backlash.

My man, you’ve had people publicly saying AI will remove jobs, risks destabilising the economy, and has a decent chance of ending civilisation.

These things may be executive-level porn - but many executives are psychopaths. Most people aren’t.

@hacks4pancakes This is bullshit, holding your ballot until after the election 😡

I wanna talk about the political movement of the Open Source community. If you spend enough time on fedi, you surely will have heard *plenty* of criticisms of what's going on in Open Source, and rightfully so.

So I'm curious, what do we think the Open Source community *should be doing* in order to achieve important progressive and anti-authoritarian goals? What should the next generation of programmers be thinking of and working on in this space?

A special rule: You're only allowed to say "don't X" if you have at least as many "do Y" recommendations. Preferably, I'd like to see more do's than don't's.

Boosts welcome :cyber_boost_request:
