Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Trump just announced tariffs so wide-reaching, they now cover a sub-Antarctic island group populated mostly by penguins and a Norwegian Arctic archipelago best known for its polar bears.

Just a quick hello from beautiful Argentinian Patagonia! I discovered the most beautiful view I have ever seen here, but I can't share it with you, until I get the conditions I am hoping for! In the meantime, here are some images from past adventures in Patagonia. 😊 #photography #landscape #nature
Furious winds transform the turquoise waters of lago Pehoe into a raging sea, blowing crashing waves side ways & literally lifting the water off the surface! Torres del Paine, Chile.There is so much fleeting beauty to the world of mountains, lasting seconds before it's gone forever. Far above, barely visible, the peak of Paine Grande in Chile's Torres del Paine is transformed into a moment of utter beauty!Patagonia truly is wilderness untamed. It is not just the awe inspiring mountains, but also the stormy, dramatic and rapidly changing weather which make it so very special! Torres del Paine, Chile.This is why I love Patagonia! After a 3 am, 12 km hike to mount Cerro Torre, I was surrounded by drizzle & clouds. It was miserable. But just a few minutes later I was graced by the most beautiful light! Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, Argentina.

#MSH45 | March 27, 1980 Mount St. Helens has been quiet for 123 years. At 12:36 p.m., the silence ends. A sonic boom echoes across southwest Washington. KGW Radio's Mike Beard circles the peak 20 min. later. “There is no question at all that the volcanic activity has begun,” he reports live on air.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

• Bluesky is a decentralized social network; it distributes control across servers. • They built Bluesky on top of a decentralized open-source framework called ATProto. • They use a federated architecture for its familiar client-server model, and convenience.

Today's mountain pic. Denali, Alaska. Highest point in North America. Took this snap when I summited in 2018, looking back down the summit ridge. Just don't call it Mt. McKinley.

Having used threads for a few days… it feels like when they bulldoze the fun/sketchy bars and restaurants in your city and build high rise condos. It may be in the same area, but the culture and tone has been completely sanitized of any soul or uniqueness. Bluesky is not perfect — but it’s alive.

maybe i'm just biased (which is possible as i've been accused of such) but i am completely fine if bluesky is a niche site that is actually enjoyable to be on every day as opposed to being The Biggest Slop Machine. i don't think bluesky will stay tiny, but even if it i'd i'm alright with that

BlueSky: Trans person makes a joke replying to Jake Tapper, immediately illustrated by comic artist, liked by AOC. Everything gets nine likes. Threads: Ellen DeGeneres hosts a rap battle between Frito-Lay and Cheez-Its riddled with "chedda," avoiding hard-R. The CIA buys all the data.
