Is Meta really closing in on superintelligence?

What’s better than artificial intelligence? Why, Personal Superintelligence, of course. Meaning, technology that’s more intelligent than a human, but also serving humans. That’s what Meta (the company behind Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp) has announced it’s working on.

Mark Zuckerberg is serious about Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL). In recent months, he has hired some of the biggest AI guns, poaching top talent from most of his rival AI giants with huge salary offers. He also has the advantage of vast troves of data that Meta already has on individuals, collected whenever we interact with their services, or even with apparently unrelated online activities. The files of data it holds on most of the world’s population — even those without Facebook accounts — underlie the personalised advertising which is Meta’s main source of income. And this is key to the “personal” bit of Personal Superintelligence.

NYT Op-Ed: Take Organs From Coma Patients

A New York Times op-ed advocates for taking organs from people who are in comas to improve transplant rates.

In a July 30, 2025, op-ed, the authors say that we should broaden the definition of death “to include irreversibly comatose patients on life support. Using this definition, these patients would be legally dead regardless of whether a machine restored the beating of their heart.”

Open Disdain for Jews and Israel Is the Status Quo in Carney’s Liberal Party

Carney speaks at a Muslim Brotherhood function

On July 30th 2025, Canada’s Prime Minister, Mark Carney, declared that “the peaceful co-existence of Israeli and Palestinian states [is] the only roadmap for a secure and prosperous future” and confirmed that “Canada will recognize a Palestinian state” at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that his decision is unequivocally appalling to any defenders of democracy, human rights, and The Good, Carney’s recent comments are not at all surprising or even unexpected.

The Race Against China for Fusion Power: Whoever Controls It, Controls the Century

Fusion energy is not only cheap, clean and limitless, it is also the “engine” that will drive the enormous increases in artificial intelligence (AI) that will be the ultimate super-weapon of this century. AI requires power — enormous amounts of it — that only fusion energy can provide.

If there were a formula for who will dominate the 21st century, it would be: Fusion Energy + AI = World Supremacy.

Our nation, however, is now faced with a new and dangerous 21st century threat.

With final sentencing, ‘extraordinary’ case against eight feral monsters in swarming death of Kenneth Lee comes to a close

Kenneth Lee did not know his heart was pumping blood freely into his chest cavity as he sat on the steps near the concrete parkette.

If he felt it, he did not complain about a stab wound, superficial, to his armpit or draw attention to the one to his left chest that was killing him.

Instead, he apologized to the two attending paramedics for being a burden as they came to check him over.

ABC, CBS, NBC Hit the Mute Button on Declassification of Durham Annex

Pure evil.

On Thursday, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) made headlines by declassifying the appendix to Special Counsel John Durham’s probe into the Russia Collusion Hoax, a document loaded with bombshells. But contrary to their years of pushing the hoax, the flagship morning (Friday) and evening (Thursday) newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC, tapped the mute button on their remotes and pretended like it wasn’t something that required national media attention.

Victims of killer self-driving Tesla on autopilot get a huge payout after four-year legal battle

A Miami jury has found Tesla was partly responsible for the 2019 crash of a self-driving vehicle that killed a woman and left her boyfriend badly injured to the tune of $240million in damages.

Naibel Benavides Leon, 22, died after a Tesla Model S slammed in to her and boyfriend Dillon Angulo, then 27, in 2019.

The couple had pulled over to look at the stars at the side of a road near Key Largo, Florida, when they were struck by the vehicle after driver George McGee took his eye off the road to reach for his phone.

Is the tradition of giving party leaders a free pass to the House dead?

Political parties won’t be giving Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre a free ride back into the House of Commons — seemingly ignoring a parliamentary tradition that dates back decades.

But the convention of political parties standing aside to allow seatless party leaders an easy path to the House — known as “leadership courtesy” — hasn’t been consistently applied.

Former Alberta MP Damien Kurek vacated his seat in Battle River-Crowfoot to give Poilievre a chance to rejoin the House of Commons after the Conservative leader lost his longtime Carleton riding in April’s general election.

What did we get for 100,000 new federal civil servants?

The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA) released an analysis this week of just what the Liberal government’s pursuit of government savings might mean for the federal public service — i.e., first and foremost, significant job cuts. The left-wing think tank estimates 57,000 total jobs might be shed by 2028, and focuses in particular on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), Employment and Social Development, and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship

Trump to deploy two nuclear submarines after Russian ‘provocations’

President Trump has ordered the deployment of two American nuclear submarines in response to “foolish and inflammatory” threats from a former president of Russia.

The US president accused Dmitry Medvedev, who is now deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, of making “highly provocative statements”.

“I have ordered two nuclear submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those instances.”

Five things now pricier in Canada due to tariffs

The trade war between the US and Canada has escalated sharply with President Donald Trump increasing the tariff rate on Canadian imports from 25% to 35%.

Most goods will avoid the increased costs entering the US market because they are currently exempted under an existing North American trade treaty. But some key products are being hit hard.

Earlier this year Canada responded with counter-tariffs of its own on tens of billions of dollars worth of American products, ranging from tomato ketchup to washing machines
