"Let us never forget this fundamental truth: the State has no source of money other than money which people earn themselves. If the State wishes to spend more it can do so only by borrowing your savings or by taxing you more. It is no good thinking that someone else will pay—that “someone else” is you. There is no such thing as public money; there is only taxpayers' money."-- Margaret Thatcher

I hate to ask, but we REALLY need some more donations.

The company is offering salaries of up to $252,000, plus a 15 percent bonus.

The listing puts nuclear weapons expertise inside one of the world’s most powerful AI research operations as the industry races to build increasingly capable models.

According to Data Center Dynamics, DeepMind is hiring “highly qualified physicists and nuclear engineers” for its Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and high-yield Explosives team within its Responsible Development and Innovation operation.
