MMA ADJACENT
Here’s my favorite bout from last night’s aki basho. It’s Daieisho (a pusher/thruster) against Yoshinofuji (a grappler). Show this to people who don’t think there is striking in sumo.
One day I’ll get into Japanese pro wrestling, too. But there’s only so much time in the day. YouTube highlight reels will do for now.
TOTALLY OFF TOPIC
Big AI stakeholders are asking for more regulation and guard rails.
I’ve read and listened to a lot on the subject and the most
sensible voices I’ve heard are saying the risks are real, but the ‘we could all be dead in 10 years’ is hyperbolic. Here’s one of those examples.
And here’s a recent piece from CBS News.
And here is Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon working together to talk about the risks.
My take: If it’s not helping cure cancer or solve the climate crisis, then AI can GTFO.
GAME TIME
Let’s do a quick little geography quiz today.
