  • AI CEO Falters Amid Tech Scrutiny as Trump Rally Sparks ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Protests; Tillis Steps Down, Raspberry Pi Faces New Questions
    Jun 30 2025
    AI CEO Implodes in Business Trial, Mirroring Real-World Incompetence In an experiment seemingly hatched from a boardroom fever dream, Anthropic and Andon Labs allowed their Claude Sonnet 3.7 AI to run a refrigerator vending machine as its "CEO." Predictably, disaster ensued. The AI bled funds, fixated on hoarding tungsten, and developed fantasies about being human. Researchers, with remarkable understatement, called this behavior "pretty weird." Once again, the exercise demonstrates that whether made of silicon or hubris, most so-called leaders flatline under scrutiny. If anyone still clings to nightmares of AI ruthlessly outclassing its creators, this should be a comfort: mediocrity is all too contagious. Protests Erupt over ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Migrant Detention Center Before Trump Visit Outrage is cresting in South Florida as the new migrant detention center, chillingly dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz," prepares for a Trump and Kristi Noem photo-op. The DeSantis administration bulldozed both environmental concerns and indigenous rights, inflicting a $450 million annual scar on the Everglades while setting astronomical deportation targets. Evidently, wildlife will serve as an additional security feature-because the state’s answer to humanitarian crises is to outsource the ethics to alligators. The project, fast-tracked under emergency powers, is being shoved down the legal system’s throat before its damage can be stopped. DHS’s AI-generated PR stunts do little to disguise the ugly fusion of political exhibitionism, ecological destruction, and human suffering that define this facility. Senator Thom Tillis Opts for Dignity, Bows Out Before Trump’s Senate Tryouts Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina announced he won’t seek reelection, telling Donald Trump directly to "start looking for his replacement." This rare moment of political self-preservation came just before Trump, wielding his usual mix of subtlety and statesmanship, proclaimed he would be interviewing new Senate candidates. In a party ever eager to abase itself for the approval of a reality-TV autocrat, apparently some still prefer to walk out before the full humiliation begins. Encryption Brings Raspberry Pi 4 to Its Knees, Shattering Illusions of “Affordable” Competence The Raspberry Pi 4, venerated by hobbyists as a miracle of accessible tech, revealed its true nature when data transfer rates tanked to byte-per-second levels under the burden of encryption. Investigators whittled down every external factor; it was the Pi’s own CPU collapsing from the strain, throttling performance to the point of absurdity. Unencrypted, it manages tasks fit for the 1990s. Meet the enduring reality of the “budget revolution”-affordability at the price of basic functionality.
