Reply to The EU is looking at seizing $330 billion in frozen Russian assets and investing them — with any profits going to Ukraine by KeenlyFirst
> In the short term, we could create, with our partners, a structure to manage these funds and invest them," von der Leyen added. "We would then use the proceeds for Ukraine.
LOL. This is a huge grift. They and their "partners" are going to charge huge management fees on this capital. And the investments they make will conveniently be in asset vehicles that are themselves managed by their friends. Only a pittance of this will go to Ukraine.
ALL of these assets should be given to Ukraine as reparations. These clowns shouldn't be allowed to "manage" anything.

Reply to There's now an open source alternative to ChatGPT, but good luck running it by ravik_reddit_007
Due to privacy reasons I haven't been able to play around with ChatGPT (OpenAI tracks IP addresses and requires a phone number to make an account). I would love to play around with one of these chat AIs when they can get the privacy thing sorted out.
