We have reached the singularity
I wonder what the AI came up with this time.

I wonder what the AI came up with this time.
Gartner's 2026 consumer panel finds half of US adults would actively prefer brands that don't use generative AI. Half. A February 2026 NBER paper finds 90% of surveyed firms report zero productivity impact from AI deployments. An MIT GenAI study tracks 95% of corporate projects at zero ROI. Microsoft's own Copilot has lost 39% of its market share in six months, with users citing distrust of outputs as the leading reason.
The platform-level data is sharper. Wikipedia banned AI-generated articles in March. Stack Overflow lost 78% of new-question volume in twelve months. cURL ended its bug bounty program after AI-generated slop submissions overwhelmed its security team. Google AI Overviews have cut click-through rates by 58% on top-ranked pages, with 58% of all searches now ending in zero clicks. Publisher referral traffic is down 25% on average, 33% globally on news.

Hi all, I’d like to get SPY 5 min data for say 5 years , anywhere I could get that data?
Thanks !
Bonjour à tous, je me remets en forme avec mon vélo de route et aimerait aller rouler en route avec des clubs, est-ce que vous en connaissez des sympas? J'en trouve pas bcp sur la région, qui ne sont pas gravelle. Merci!
This piece lays out a pretty dark cycle that goes way beyond "fake videos."
AI companies are running a feedback loop where their tools destroy public trust in reality, and then they use that collapse to sell AI governance as the "objective" replacement for a broken democracy.
Essentially: (OpenAI, Anthropic) make truth impossible to verify.
- The exhaustion makes voters give up on human leaders.
- The pivot is these same companies signing massive military and government contracts to run the state.
The "Singularity" isn't a machine waking up; it’s a tired civilization handing the keys to a black box because we’re too burnt out to govern ourselves.

It just does not use the car’s engine properly. Any setting I missed ?
I put in in dynamic / sport but still seems lazy but using the paddles shows a lively engine when running higher revs.
Any setups I might have missed ?
Thanks
This week: the billionaires who broke the economy want to pay you to shut up about it.
Last week, Elon Musk pinned a post to the top of his X profile: "Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI."
Sam Altman wants to go bigger — "universal extreme wealth", paid in compute tokens. Amodei says UBI may be "part of the answer." Khosla says it's a necessary safety net. All of them, in unison.
These are the guys who spent twenty years arguing that government should stay out of markets, that handouts breed dependency, that the individual should stand on their own. Musk literally ran a federal cost-cutting operation. And now they want the government to mail checks to every citizen.
Why? Because they broke the thing, and they know it. The people building the tools that eat the jobs are pre-emptively offering to pay for the damage — on their terms, through their platforms, using their math.
A universal basic income paid by the people who automated your job is not a safety net. It's a leash.
