robrorcroptrer··on Google fires engineer who called its AI sentient

I am a Swede and I think most of my peers are delusional fans of our institutions and leaders. The leaders tries to cover up everything, and holds no accountability.

They go hand in hand with the politicians on this part.

robrorcroptrer··on What the Omicron wave is revealing about human immunity
