to do so. I always wonder why AARP is still around, given that they have done NOTHING to support their older constituency against the attacks on Social Security and Medicare for decades now against RW assaults. Sadly, a lot of older people are not computer literate nor understanding of the risks AI can render.

It behooves ALL of us to fight back on this. Call Congress.

Musk and their attacks on Medicaid,Medicare and SS. My sub runs out in 2026 and that will be that. Pretty soon they'll start running articles on steps people can take to like on less SS and NO Medicare.

Call it what you like, eugenics, like Hitler's master race, depopulation, genocide, the people behind Project 2025 want to murder millions of people here and around the world.

That Big Ugly Death Bill is going to kill or shorten the lives of unwashed Americans. When the next Covid or other disaster hits, the rich can afford a medical cocktail for treatment, we unwashed Americans will be told to take horse paste or drink bleach, or shove ultraviolet lamps up our asses.

Krasnov has been quoted saying this. I have no doubt that's their goal. Attrition + targeted neglect are the means.

And that started out as a guideline for doctors

AI can tell us.

Making sure that your insurance company-owning friends have precedence for making their AI's even tougher on 'approving' anything, eh?

I can hear them plotting now.

"Since the Feds can do it..."

Saving money by denying care. And then give big tax cuts to billionaires.

Make intelligence real again

As stated above, you can program AI to give you exactly the result you want it to give you.

You can also be assured that it will be perverted by those who control its programming.

CEOs pick decision makers who make shareholders happy then shareholders make CEOs happy. It's a circle jerk that costs lives.

Elderly and need cancer care? Drug costs too high for your autoimmune disease? Cost Benefit Ratio AI's say it's cheaper just to let you die. Brave New World, people.

The government could use AI to improve patient outcomes. But no. It’s all about the $$$ while billionaires get tax cuts.

I’m especially concerned because many chronic conditions seen in older adults cannot be “cured” and have to be managed long term. Will they define tests and treatments that do not “cure” to be wasteful?

Also worried that the high variability in response to treatments seen in groups of older adults means that the “average” response to a treatment may be used for AI decision making despite being accompanied by subgroups of patients that respond very well. Will all older adults, including those individuals who might really benefit, be denied a certain treatment because the average response is not stellar?

Also worried that they’re very aware Medicare would save a lot of money if older people would just die versus needing health care.

my quota for bad news was done for the day ...
