And since we're on the topic of Elon, I hadn't realized that there was the Humanoid Robot Games a few weeks back. This makes what Elon is doing look like toys. I mean we know Boston Dynamics already does that, but this is large scale.
The company that dominated this - Unitree - they make a robot, the R1, that sells for $6K and it is produced at scale.
Yeah, FB just wants eyeballs on their screens to push ad revenue. They don’t give a dam about the content, because they don’t have to.
And when the algorithm see that post moves the needles because of
They push it to the front of the line, because that will get someone else’s eye to post how great or fake or whatever they want to post about it.

You cannot have the head of the FBI making statements like "we've got him" when you don't know for sure. This was inexcusable. Leave it to your field offices. Saying nothing there is better that saying you have him when you don't!
Seriously - you want to erode trust in an organization? Run it like this yahoos are doing it.
