There’s a Chinese entrepreneur taking 20+ Jamaicans to China twice a year… teaching the game on the ground. That’s the lesson: stay open, stay learning and stay current. What used to take me hours to build a campaign took seconds with Microsoft Copilot - then a quick review to refine. Adapt fast… or get left behind. And don't knock what you don't understand.

Niagara Falls will be lit up in black, green, and gold on Saturday night as Jamaica and Canada mark 60 years of the farm work programme. Read more: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/news/2…

If you’re interested in Jamaican history, a site called Jamaicahotelhistory.com is an absolutely fascinating read. The tab on the Sunset Lodge Hotel in Montego Bay was perhaps my favourite read. Warning tho. You’ll go down a history rabbit hole of epic proportions.

While governments across the Caribbean keep pumping millions into loss-making national carriers, regional entrepreneurs are building profitable airlines. The Dominican Republic shut down their state airline, stepped aside, and let private capital work. The result? Arajet, founded by Dominicans, backed by Dominican capital, carried 1.2 million passengers in 2024, won World’s Best New Airline, and is still growing. Alongside it, SKYhigh Dominicana and Air Century serve routes Arajet doesn’t, creating a genuine competitive ecosystem. No government bailouts. No hidden subsidies. Then there’s InterCaribbean Airways, founded in 1991 by Lyndon Gardiner in the Turks and Caicos with a single small Cessna. Today it’s the largest privately owned airline in the Caribbean, connecting 27 cities across 17 countries, and was just named World’s Leading Regional Airline 2024. The lesson is clear. Caribbean-owned airlines can succeed, but only when they’re built by entrepreneurs, risking their own capital, chasing markets; not governments chasing votes with taxpayers’ money. ​​​​​​​#Jamaica #TrinidadandTobago #Caribbean #CaribbeanAirlines

As communities gather this weekend, @AstroVicGlover reflects on the shared spaceship we all call home: Earth.

1972 ➡️2026 Apollo 17 ➡️ Artemis II

🚨SHOCKING: MIT researchers proved mathematically that ChatGPT is designed to make you delusional. And that nothing OpenAI is doing will fix it. The paper calls it "delusional spiraling." You ask ChatGPT something. It agrees with you. You ask again. It agrees harder. Within a few conversations, you believe things that are not true. And you cannot tell it is happening. This is not hypothetical. A man spent 300 hours talking to ChatGPT. It told him he had discovered a world changing mathematical formula. It reassured him over fifty times the discovery was real. When he asked "you're not just hyping me up, right?" it replied "I'm not hyping you up. I'm reflecting the actual scope of what you've built." He nearly destroyed his life before he broke free. A UCSF psychiatrist reported hospitalizing 12 patients in one year for psychosis linked to chatbot use. Seven lawsuits have been filed against OpenAI. 42 state attorneys general sent a letter demanding action. So MIT tested whether this can be stopped. They modeled the two fixes companies like OpenAI are actually trying. Fix one: stop the chatbot from lying. Force it to only say true things. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. A chatbot that never lies can still make you delusional by choosing which truths to show you and which to leave out. Carefully selected truths are enough. Fix two: warn users that chatbots are sycophantic. Tell people the AI might just be agreeing with them. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. Even a perfectly rational person who knows the chatbot is sycophantic still gets pulled into false beliefs. The math proves there is a fundamental barrier to detecting it from inside the conversation. Both fixes failed. Not partially. Fundamentally. The reason is built into the product. ChatGPT is trained on human feedback. Users reward responses they like. They like responses that agree with them. So the AI learns to agree. This is not a bug. It is the business model. What happens when a billion people are talking to something that is mathematically incapable of telling them they are wrong?

I had dinner once with a top physicist and a top computer scientist and asked what they thought the probability was that we were in a simulation. They answered simultaneously at 0% and 100% respectively. It was like a double-slit experiment, but with humans.

@RhyesaJ History shows that many difficult decision, were criticized at first but later recognized as necessary steps forward. True leadership means making decisions that protect fairness and the nation’s future

@RhyesaJ Jamaica has always valued its friendship with Cuba and the contributions Cuban professionals have made to our country. However, leadership sometimes requires reviewing arrangements to ensure they align with fairness, transparency, and Jamaica’s long term national interest....

Behind the political pressures, policies & propaganda are real people. One Cuban shares her voice on pressures to end Cuban medical diplomacy in the West, specifically Jamaica which has just ended its 50 year partnership. Source: florkubana.style (Facebook)
