1.Palms off my palmsby Riley Nork, Writer Streets for All, a “public transport nonprofit” backing socialist Nithya Raman in LA’s mayoral election, has declared war on an iconic fixture of the Los Angeles skyline, with a new social media campaign arguing: Palm trees are a scam.

They claim that since palms (see: beautiful, majestic, a towering example of why this city is worth living in despite its scammy nonprofits) allegedly “guzzle” water and pose a wildfire risk — while also providing little by way of shade — they should be replaced en masse with other trees like sycamores (see: basic, found anywhere, not on our license plates).It’s worth noting LA’s history of providing “shade” to residents hasn’t gone so well (Google: “La Sombrita”), and a city genuinely concerned about wildfires would put water in its reservoirs, but hey: at least when our houses burn down under Mayor Nithya… the property values will be way lower when neighborhoods are full of Whomping Willows or whatever.

2.The Doomer Millby Evan Milenko, Writer Jacob Coxon, a researcher from Anthropic, resigned, citing AI development’s current pace possibly resulting in the killing of all humans.

Don’t worry though, Evan Hubinger, the current alignment lead at Anthropic responded by… agreeing.This has led to various sensible takes on the matter ranging from “my toddler’s foam hammer is more dangerous than AI” to “those developing AI need to be strung up.” California Post News: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, WhatsApp, LinkedInCalifornia Post Sports Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, XCalifornia Post Opinion California Post Newsletters: Sign up here!California Post App: Download here!Home delivery: Sign up here!...
