"Anthropic warned Monday that within months, compact AI models could grow powerful enough to spread autonomously across commercial internet-of-things devices — including smart ovens and off-brand Android TV boxes — without any human involvement." qz.com/anthropic-self…

AI researchers taking up smoking because they are certain AI will cure cancer somehow reminds me of the African guerrillas who wear amulets that "make them bulletproof." cbsnews.com/news/shyam-san…
To pay for policies to help workers amidst AI-driven job losses, "the federal government should establish a payroll tax on companies’ equity compensation." foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/red…
I put Belarus on my list of countries to see before they're gone a couple of decades ago. economist.com/interactive/eu…
"For at least the next decade, favorable trends in hypersonic weapons, drone systems, electronic warfare, and cyberwarfare put the United States and its allies and partners in a strong position to deter China from an attack on Taiwan." foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/red…
The path to bioterrorism outlined here is also one of the answers to the question "how would AI kill us acting on its own?" #AI #bioweapons foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/red…
"Night Raiders" was apparently criticized for using standard YA tropes -- but Canadian First Nations endured a YA dystopia for much of the 20th century.
Futurist at the movies microreview: "Night Raiders," which came out 5 years ago today.

Child mortality has declined in all world regions. In 1950, almost one in four children worldwide died before their fifth birthday. In Africa, one in three children died. The chart shows the change since then. In every region, the mortality rate of children has declined. In Africa and Oceania, the child mortality rate declined 5-fold, in Asia 10-fold, and in Europe about 27-fold. Progress was not always steady. The sharp spike in Asia around 1960 was due to the “Great Leap Forward” famine in Mao’s China, the deadliest famine in recorded history. And the progress is far from finished. The global average has declined to 3.5%, but this still means that about 4.7 million children younger than five years died in 2025 — 13,000 children every single day. (written by @MaxCRoser)
@gmail How about doing the star color change going forward, not retroactively -- for me and a lot of us, I bet, those colors meant specific categories, and now I have a couple thousand mis-colored starred emails.

Futurist at the movies microreview: "Seconds," which came out 60 years ago today. Now we can actually swap faces, if somewhat clumsily, and conjure people into apparent existence by modifying electronic records.

"The sad but inescapable truth is that Russia will be an existential threat to its many neighbors, especially Ukraine, as long as its infatuation with greatness persists" foreignpolicy.com/2026/09/18/rus…
This note found in a TSA screening bin suggests some confusion about Greek mythology.
