       @mntmn I'm reading a book called Ancillary Justice that is about an AI ship which invests portions of its consciousness into condemned prisoners, overwriting their personalities. The plot is that one portion / person is cut off from the rest and seeks revenge against the local Emperor.I know that AI will never be able to approximate human feelings and emotions, but it's fun to think about competent thinking machines.

       @dangillmor @SeanCasten America funds Afghanistan to fight a proxy war against the Soviets.American funds Israel to fight proxy wars against Muslim countries.It's not nation building. It's terror-building.
