Easily the most annoying #UX flub in Apple News. Whatever you take a user’s intent to be when they block a channel, surely it’s not “Please prominently feature content from this channel every time I open the app”? 🤦🏻‍♂️ It's been like this for at least ~7 years.

Today seems like a “good” day for a re-do of my 2017 nuclear football thread. Jokes about Trump and the nuclear codes are well-worn. But most people don’t realize how it all actually works, so I’m going to explain. Warning: you will find this thread distressing.

With accuracy rates like this (OpenAI’s own research), what could go wrong?

Next time you hear someone cite an #Al model as a source, show them this — research from #openai on the accuracy and hallucination rate of its most popular #chatgpt models. LLMs are powerful tools, but a tool is only helpful if you know what it can — and cannot— do. #gpt #Ilm #chatbot

It's not doing anything you can't do much better! Generative AI models are wrong about facts a very high % of the time because they have no thinking or reasoning abilities. Even OpenAI's own research shows this (attached).

The Vice President of the United States believes the stock market is “inflated”. In a normal world, this would be a headline-grabber by itself.

Completely wild that even OpenAI's own research shows how terrible ChatGPT is at basic factuality.

Regardless of the methods Democrats choose to express their displeasure tonight, you can be sure they will all be abject failures of both optics and messaging. Maybe Al Green will shake his cane again?

Friend just sent this to me - I haven't verified it beyond checking the Maine Lottery site, but it appears the same four-digit number (8803) won in both of yesterday's draws in the Maine State Lottery “Pick 4” game. The odds of that happening are about 100 million to one. 😲

A good man who served his country well. I'll add a small biographical detail I haven't yet seen mentioned: Mr Hill served as a significant inspiration for Clint Eastwood's character (Frank Horrigan) in the excellent 1993 thriller *In the Line of Fire*. RIP sir. 🫡 🇺🇸

Will someone interview Trump using this microphone please? Of all my friends in the media, does at least one of you dare? I promise you beaucoup virality.

I ran a BBS a million years ago on a software package called Telegard. A couple years back I was delighted to get the software running in an emulator. Bring back the ANSI, I say.

I continue to be frustrated and sickened that the big tech companies are cramming this #GenerativeAI shit down our throats. Some of its mistakes, like the attached, are laughable and obvious (I hope). But many more of them are not, which is what makes it so insidious. 1/ 🧵⤵️ #AI

Just a few weeks ago, I stopped by “Winkie's” because I was in the area. A few days before that, I had watched a Mulholland Drive behind-the-scenes video of him coaching Naomi Watts through a scene as they both sat in the booth behind those windows.

The two most destructive fires in Los Angeles history - the #PalisadesFire and #EatonFire - are burning simultaneously. Unprecedented is not a big enough word. We're in the midst of one of the worst disasters this city has ever experienced. [Video by @stuartpalley.bsky.social.]

Welp, thanks to @sundaedivine.bsky.social's reposts going viral yet again, this tweet has graduated to the next level of absurdity and is now a #memecoin. 🤣 $FLOORSKIN pump.fun/coin/GTCqdT9...

Unfortunately it was writing this about Trump and it went so viral that he saw it and, I'm told, was actually upset about it.

Also the fiction is so poorly constructed. He says a "friend was asked" to write a recommendation for "his daughter". Yale does not accept recommendation letters from parents for their own kid, and the letter is obviously a [fake] response to a request to recommend someone else's kid.
