  6. (paywall) The fact that we are asking whether US Tech can undermine a country's democracy should be worrying, even without knowing the answer.

  7. There seems to be a continued backlash agaijst #OpenAI for their begging for the US military comtracts which will allow for automated killing with no human involvement as well as mass surveillance. As a result of #Anthropic rejecting those two points, people are flocking to their service.

    **but they (anthropic) were still happy to accept money for developing technology to assist with murder.**

  10. "Has Britain become an economic colony? | Technology" by Tim Wu
    theguardian.com/books/2025/nov "Two and a half centuries ago, the American colonies launched a violent protest against British rule, triggered by parliament’s imposition of a monopoly on the sale of tea and the antics of a vainglorious king. Today, the tables have turned: it is Great Britain that finds itself at the mercy of major US tech firms..." #digitalsovereignty #TechOligarchy

    #OpenAI and #Nvidia’s $100B AI plan will require power equal to 10 #nuclear reactors

    By Benj Edwards, September 22, 2025

    "On Monday, OpenAI and Nvidia jointly announced a letter of intent for a strategic partnership to deploy at least 10 gigawatts of Nvidia systems for OpenAI's AI infrastructure, with Nvidia planning to invest up to $100 billion as the systems roll out. The companies said the first gigawatt of Nvidia systems will come online in the second half of 2026 using Nvidia's Vera Rubin platform.

    "Everything starts with compute," said Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, in the announcement. "Compute infrastructure will be the basis for the economy of the future, and we will utilize what we're building with NVIDIA to both create new AI breakthroughs and empower people and businesses with them at scale.""

  22. CBS shifts to appease the right under new owner

    September 12, 2025

    Excerpt: "Now, The Wall Street Journal reports that [#Skydance] wants to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery — the owner of #WarnerBros. studios, #HBOMax and cable news giant #CNN. Such grand ambitions would have to pass muster with Trump administration regulators once more. And they would also raise questions about CNN's direction under Skydance, were they to come to pass.

    "#Paramount Global, #CBS and CBS News have declined to comment.

    Skydance is run by its founder, #DavidEllison. He's the producer (along with Paramount Pictures) of Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible movie franchise, among other properties. He is also the son of Oracle founder #LarryEllison, one of the richest people in the world and a vocal backer of President #Trump."
