California governor: Generative AI will fix homelessness — based on a 2023 sales pitch
In 2024 , AI still can't answer " how many Rs are there in Strawberry " currectly...
yes u need web3 for that
Huh, well California can't count their homeless properly either. It's a match made in hell.
Sounds like he's confused AI and a replicator, neither of which are going to solve his problem of being a complete moron.
Newsom is a very special fellow
What a blessed world we live in - 2014 a homeless person had to learn to code in order to deserve the things they need to live. Today, they just need to become a prompt engineer. The trajectory of the world bends towards justice, after all!
My trajectory of learning about this Newsom fellow was amazing.
How do you keep producing people like this, America?
Yeah... He's very much a corpo neolib. He's actively sabotaged attempts to hold PG&E accountable for killing people and render the earned corporate death sentence. He's also vehemently against any wealth tax and keeps pulling the pied-piper strategy during elections to limit the influence of left-of-center politicians.
Is he better than the guys whose campaigns he aids? Yes. Is he a dumpster fire of a politician who is unable and unwilling to take on major issues and address root causes of problems facing his constituents? Also yes.
It may help to know about Californian neoliberalism. Newsom is running on a faulty ontology; the world is built out of different building blocks for him than for us. We often contrast it with the more dominant flavor of neoliberalism on the other coast:
"Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft." ~ Mary Schmich, Wear Sunscreen
Newsom is absolutely A Type Of Guy
this one really got to me. very upsetting
Nobody should be surprised that a politician in the west is proposing that we funnel more money into private companies rather than just fixing the root cause.
LLMs aren't going to save the world. Stop it.
Gavin Newsom is America's answer to the question: "What if Keir Starmer, but worse?"
Reads more like a smear piece, especially when there’s just a cherry picked quote or two with no links to the actual speech.
For links to California AI primary sources there was only:
So poorly cited! Mr. Gerard don't you know that if it's not in video form it doesn't exist for people raised on TikTok?? SMH.
Every quote has the source linked following, you bloviating fuckwit
I admit to being conflicted. I try to keep more positive on Lemmy to avoid the psychological traps of social media outage. However, I do enjoy well-phrased and well-deserved insults.
oh how fortunate are we to have you, valorous AnomalousBit of programming dot motherfucking dev, to wander past our village and shine upon us the shining beacon of your intellect
truly, without your timely help we would have been at sea, unable to find veracity in the words of the yon governer gavin newsom, be they branded on the scriptures of office or no! oh woe betide us should your clear insight into this most nebulous matter not have come our way this fair day!
now please get back the fuck on the road where you came from and keep your idiotic opinions to yourself. or, y'know, learn to read. both work
Man, what a shit take this is. Spent two seconds on the press release. This is what they want to accomplish: "Creating housing with more data and accountability by creating clearer insights into local permitting and development decisions and deploying tools to support every community in building enough homes for all its residents, including vulnerable populations. "
And two seconds on the "nonsense generator can't fix homelessness, how do we actually do it?" take: "To improve housing affordability, California needs to streamline and accelerate housing production and reexamine the regulations that have hindered new housing development."
This is bullshit rage bait. I mean, can "GenAI" do this well? IMO no, but the idea of trying to solve the root problems isn't complete dog shit.

the title of the press release:
Governor Newsom seeks to harness the power of GenAI to address homelessness, other challenges
the paragraph right before the bullet points you quoted out of context:
State agencies and departments began analyzing potential uses for GenAI and developed critical challenges within state government, particularly focusing on issues that impact vulnerable populations. Today, the Governor announces the first step in the process to potentially adopt GenAI to address the following issues identified by state agencies:
it’s literally a press release about supposedly using the nonsense generator to fix homelessness and you had to reach fucking hard to make it look like anything else — you quoted the only two fucking paragraphs that don’t mention GenAI, I fucking counted. and for what?
the included fucking summary of the press release!
What you need to know: Governor Gavin Newsom invites developers to help create Generative AI (GenAI) solutions for some of the most challenging issues facing California and its 39 million residents, including housing and homelessness.
they wrote this bit so you didn’t have to read! what the fuck is wrong with you
where the fuck do you shitheads keep coming from
no, the article isn’t clickbait if it accurately paraphrases a source in a tone you disagree with
no, it’s not ragebait if reading it made you angry and you wish it wasn’t true, but it very obviously is
good talk, thanks
