Exciting if this becomes true. I believe life will become a lot better with a lot of automation. But I still think most people will have to work. There will be new things that we focus our wants on. And those will be fulfilled by humans because it will be things that we don't want machines to do... Or things machines still can't do.

Let's be crystal clear: • Most knowledge work will end in 36 months • Mine and yours • No exceptions This isn't about IF AI replaces human work. It's about WHEN. And that when is now. But here's what everyone misses: This isn't a threat. This is *liberation.* Billions of people finally freed from the hamster wheel of jobs they hate. While others fight to protect jobs that are already gone, I'm preparing for: • Universal abundance • Creative freedom • Human sovereignty Stop defending your chains. Start embracing your liberation. The age of trading life force for survival is ending. The age of human potential is beginning. 🚀

In the EU we need to set our priorities straight. In order to defend ourselves, we need the best technology and we need economic growth. It has always been like that. We need to ensure we have this. Eye on the ball. Not letting ourselves use the best AI tools because of potential future problems will not help us when there's a robot gun pointing at us and we were not allowed to develop it ourselves.

What? It's clear that economic ties to Russia do not incentivize peace but ways to weaponize, abuse and blackmail by Russia. Some people don't wake up?

⚡️ EU debates restarting Russian gas purchases as part of Ukraine peace deal, FT reports. The proposal's advocates, including Hungarian and German officials, argue that the move could give both Russia and Europe incentives to maintain a potential peace deal while stabilizing the continent's energy market, the Financial Times reported.

No, we need a federal union of Europe We can't compete as tiny single nations with big geopolitical forces like US and China The problem is that the pragmatic people in Europe who want to build are now on the right, but they're the same people who are against the EU Meanwhile the left in Europe is pro-EU but they're fully infilitrated by climate change obsessed degrowthers who literally want commit economical suicide You don't have many pro-EU capitalists in Europe which is exactly what you need to compete globally @euaccofficial

2006 teimme tutkimuksen kuntien henkilöstön kasvusta. Tässä pari esimerkkiä. Pori, jossa väkiluku ei ollut kasvanut lainkaan 1972-2004. Hallintohenkilösto kasvoi kuitenkin 31-->161.

Brilliant British engineers at Rolls Royce have pioneered Small Modular Reactors - each of which generate 470MW. That’s enough to power a million homes for at least 60 years. They’re compact, totally safe and emission-free. Why is Britain not doing all it can to accelerate their installation? Energy would be cheap and abundant, helping our economy boom and making British people richer. Instead, our politicians inflict hardship on their people, forcing them to subsidise wind and solar to the tune of £300 per household per year for the last decade and giving them the most expensive electricity in the world. Enough.
