Google is coming in for sharp criticism after video went viral of the Google Nest assistant refusing to answer basic questions about the Holocaust — but having no problem answer questions about the Nakba.
Google, and its parent company Alphabet, have long come in criticism for developing products pushing social justice absolutism. In February, their AI platform Gemini was mocked for generating comically woke creations including a woman as pope, black Vikings, female NHL players and “diverse” versions of America’s Founding Fathers — not to mention black and Asian Nazi soldiers.
Why do I click on NYPost links? Smh
On a serious note, this is a bad look. Google claims it wasn’t a universal issue and that it’s been fixed, so we’ll probably never know the scope or why it only happened with the word “Jew”. Maybe it didn’t recognize religions and only demonyms.
That’s funny, I made a post like 15 minutes ago that talks about the surge in US asylum requests. There’s no easy solution, politically speaking. You’ll get blowback for almost anything, which is part of the reason the US hasn’t had immigration reform in so long.
Workers for some suppliers of Chinese fast fashion giant Shein are still working 75 hours a week, despite the company promising to improve conditions, a report suggests....
75 hours? What’s with these rookie numbers?! What happened to the good old days of Chinese sweatshops where people worked 14 hours, 7 days per week? What’s next, unions?!

It’s been a tough conversation since the beginning of the war. The west wants to show support (as we should) but there have obviously been long-standing issues with corruption in Ukraine.
I’m certainly not denying Dems have pushed MAGA candidates (although for slightly different reasons, typically they are easier to beat in a general, not because Dems want them in office). However, the magnitude of the cross-party spending for a house primary here is significant.
And this happened during industrialization too. The world keeps evolving and politicians will always use it to fear monger.
If you told someone in 1850 how many people we’d have employed today as automobile mechanics, airplane techs, computer engineers, etc., they would be so lost. Just like we would be if someone from 2150 tried to tell us about their economy.
I comment a lot on stories having to do with state governments and legislation or regions of the country. It got me wondering how many people I'm accidentally disparaging when I don't mean everyone in said state or region is terrible. So… Please be as specific or obtuse as your privacy filter requires. I'll start:...
Reading most media out there, Robert Kennedy sounds even wackier than Trump. But, someone shared this video with me and it's changing my opinion about him. He seems to be a very good candidate for the next election to replace Biden....
I clicked because I thought it’d be a short ad. I’m not watching a 30 minute video of him attempting to debunk claims that he’s a conspiracy theorist. He is a conspiracy theorist.
Philippine Coast Guard spokesperson Commodore Jay Tarriela told a forum there had been "small-scale reclamation" of the Sabina Shoal, which Manila calls Escoda, and that China was "the most probable actor".
Every little bit of pushback helps ig. Regardless of your opinion on the country, China has certainly been a bully in the South China Sea. The shifting of of the Philippines away from China has been the silver lining on the country electing a dictator’s son.
You’re so rude! He also loves whichever human lavished him with the most praise in the past 24 hours (he doesn’t have the memory to recall more than that)
Interesting! Ig I was thinking of 2003-2005 when I thought about the genocide. I did know about the 2023 stuff but ig I didn’t realize they had a legit govt since 2019
