Chess Legend And Putin Critic Garry Kasparov On Why Russia Will Lose In Ukraine | Forbes

[@lutaayam]

He’s right about democracy being fragile and needing to be protected. Americans are taking it for granted

[@davd1986]

Like the 'democracy' in Ukraine? Oh wait...

[@alter7178]

Americans don't even have a real democracy.

[@FledgedPhoenix]

Problem is just under 50% of Americans support Theocrats. These people would rather support Russia than a Democrat. These fools would sellout their country out of hate for Democrats

[@protosmagnus9267]

democracy is easily manipulated by corporatocracy, by means of manufacturing consent, polarization, propaganda, etc.. with enough grip over media, public opinion can be easily manipulated, therefore as such democracy is an illusion

[@tonyfendex2558]

Many Americans take democracy for granted. But the problem is that many MOST democracies don't want to be part of this war., which might become bigger. All they can do is help Ukraine with some weapons only.

Maybe if he is allowed and will be working with the public he could manage to speak relatable with Russians

[@chetos7807]

​@@l.h.3586 As a Russian, I can say why. There are several reasons but major one is Kasparov doesn't have much recognition even among the anti-Putin side. Reason is that he doesn't use KZbin, which is the main source of information for many Russians. Before big interview with Yuri Dud(7 millions views) and the video about his political activities by Maxim Katz, I and many other Russians in the anti-Putin camp didn't know about his activities outside of chess. Before imprisonment, Navalny was the biggest leader in the opposition that everyone would agree to follow. Now, the FBK (Navalny team that doesn't want to unite or сommunicate), Khodorkovsky, and Maxim Katz.

When we think of AI we shouldn’t imagine Terminator because, not only is Terminator a piece of fiction, but a piece of fiction written by film producers who had no actual expertise in AI when they wrote it. How could they have any expertise? They wrote it back in 1984. The internet was still in its infancy and AI was a far off pipe dream at that point. My point is that very, very, very rarely are Hollywood films ever actually accurate representations of the concepts they are depicting. Real life Great Whites are not monsters like the shark in Jaws. Dinosaurs probably were not the roaring, ultra-aggressive, killing machines of Jurassic Park, and there’s no reason to assume or even suspect that AI will ever resemble anything like Sky Net.

Exactly right. A bunch of spoiled rich kids in the nepotistic clique called "Hollywood" making juvenile movies in California are definitely not the people to learn about things from, especially an emerging science like A.I., and I'd add that someone like Elon Musk, who is certainly not a scientist and didn't do the engineering that made him rich, is not one to learn from, either. When you actually learn about A.I. as I did in graduate school, it's hard to be frightened by what in reality is just another tool to do mathematical things like classification more quickly for whatever purpose. As the very wise Mr. Kasparov said, new technologies can be used for good and bad purposes, but A.I. is nothing like what people imagine.

Kasparov could be a great president of a new Russia

With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher
