The real rulers are the Elon Musks and #Trump is just on stage for the smear theater. Unfortunately, the leftists who want to redistribute #wealth no longer exist in American politics. The right has stepped into this gap and taken over the problems of poor people for their politics.

What Shafer does exceptionally powerfully is to demonstrate, step-by-step, how the application of new technologies and commercial surrogacy processes to reproduction is already radically redefining both family and human personhood within the liberal managerial worldview, not only in theory but in law. And he then shows how this redefinition must logically lead to a truly totalitarian social and political dynamic, in which children become not persons but assembled products, and parents (if they can be identified as such at all) merely โ€œprovisionally accredited custodiansโ€ of this property on behalf of various stakeholders, and ultimately the state.

If you believe Mark Zuckerberg, Meta's AI large language model (LLM) Llama 3 is open source.

It's not, despite what he says. The Open Source Initiative (OSI) spells it out in the Open Source Definition, and Llama 3's license โ€“ with clauses on litigation and branding โ€“ flunks it on several grounds.
