#OpEd Inna Bondarenko takes you inside Russia's famous school for diplomats, where Moscow's negotiators of the future are taught to break the rules of international relations while appearing to play by the book. Here's what she learned and how she got out.

”This is a warning.” The West should listen. "If the West wants to deal effectively with 🇷🇺, it needs to understand how its diplomacy works," says researcher Inna Bondarenko, who studied at 🇷🇺 (MGIMO), an elite Russian Diplomatic Academy often referred to in the West as the "Russian Harvard." 1/9🧵

At least that person is not delusional. Maybe even reachable. Tho, I thought I was getting thru to my own cousin last year and he couldn’t wait to brag that “Uncle tRump is back baby!” the morning of 11/6 (and had the nerve to ask to borrow money at the same time!). Y’all already know my response 😏

Any other election cycle I’d say “oh well, we’ll get ‘em next time.” This one just feels wayyy different and unfortunately it requires removing the kid gloves. We thought swing voters got it after last midterms but those lessons did not hold two more years. We were dead wrong. So a change is needed.

I know your approach because it was my approach for years and what I learned is that it doesn’t work because these people aren’t connecting their choices to consequences. We can not convince them with logic or empathy. They only understand self-interest. And theirs are coming to a head with reality.

If “SaaS is dead” because #AI is eating the world, doesn’t this imply that proprietary software is dead as well? GenAI is necessarily a race to the bottom, so soon enough a model would be capable of generating not only FLOSS clones of any proprietary software, but entire operating systems as well.

So 50 shades of AGI? Sounds like you’re saying it was smart enough to mimic a toddler. If we’re grading its potential for AGI there should probably be some rough equivalence to human assessments.
