Quote from: TSmith34, Inc. on Today at 11:05:38 AMI'm not sure that AI has to be smart to be dangerous, but I'd argue Palantir is both smart and exceptionally dangerous.

This is already almost 8 years old. https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2018-palantir-peter-thiel/?terminal=true

I'd place very, very large bets that the data the DOGE boys stole all ended up not only being fed into Grok, but handed to Palantir, too.

They've privatized the deep state, but didn't bother to let congress know.

Found something new that no one was making a buck on, greased the right palms, and now they have all the information they need on everyone.

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 09:56:16 AMThis is giving some UDPride vibes.  Like I said, this is just going to continue going in circles.  If you can't see what's been going on in college athletics, I'm not sure what to tell you.  Even the school you think you're going to be is jumping to a different conference.

There's a reason your senators (I think?  but honestly don't care enough to keep this going) are writing letters to the Big East trying to get into it.

Congrats on all the money and this year's success.  I look forward to SLU's 26 straight NCAA Tournament appearances, 9 straight Sweet 16 appearances, and two Final Four appearances.

???

I am confused. None of this has anything to do with the questions I asked.

I think many would say their Senator is self serving and opportunistic to try to deflect from their NFL team relocating to Kansas. Schertz is smart enough to smile. shake hands, and take the free publicity.

You said you aren't sure what to tell me. Answer specific questions is all that I asked for you ti do. Not doing that is why this is circular.

Why does it matter if Schertz is doing this in the A10, WCC, Mountain West, Big East, football four etc? He's doing it. 6 of 11 Big East programs have struggled since MUBB joined 21 years ago.

No one mentioned 26 straight NCAA Tourneys. 9 Sweet 16's, or 2 Final Fours. This year, next year, year by year. Why don't you think he can do it again next year? It's not a trick question.

I'm not sure why it bothers you so much.

Happy to move on.

Not to mention what Thiel said he wanted to accomplish in the Epstein files

Quote from: Hards Alumni on Today at 08:28:40 AMTake out the Mag7 and check your charts.  And then remember they're all sitting on an enormous ticking time bomb of "AI".

Buckle up everyone, its going to be a bumpy ride. 

No matter what is done based on social issues, I continue to believe the actual downfall of our republic will be the result of short term profit seeking + commodification/financialization of everything + corruption.

Mandy was great unless he was guarding David Rivers. I thought Michael Wilson was a better defender. I actually thought Wes and Dominic were better defenders than McNeal. I have not seen many players as effective as James at staying in front of someone full court. Wes could cover a lot of positions—almost like OMax. McNeal was great in the passing lanes. Tony Miller was a very good defender even though not nearly as athletic as some mentioned. Mitchell was awfully good too. Too hard for me to choose. MU has been blessed with lots of great players.

Quote from: rocky_warrior on Today at 02:12:00 AMSeveral of my coworkers are convinced Palantir is the devil too.  I'm still convinced AI is too dumb to spell.  Convince me otherwise.

Butch Lee was an outstanding defender. Quickest hands on the planet.
Marcus Washington, when his knee wasn't flaring up, was an excellent defender.
Mandy Johnson, Dominic James, West Matthews, Jerel McNeal, Michael Wilson, Dean Meminger.
