The thing is, if a wealth tax did lead to an exodus of the uber wealthy, that would be *feature* not a *flaw*. Australia would be wholly improved if Gina or Clive left. Corporations would still extract our mineral, but these toxic individuals would no longer be driving our politics

That's a pseudolaw case. A classic troupe.

Clotted Cream 35gm
Our clotted cream is back!  My favourite way to serve it is with scones and jam. You can serve it with any dessert, from sweet to tart; or use it in savoury dishes like mushrooms, tarts, soups risotto...

It the type of policy that makes me soooo angry. Do better. Like even if you have this as a starting point, find a way to protect the innocent. Otherwise you are throwing Ukrainian kids under the tracks of your principles

I mean its a shit decision on its face. Also, is it going to change the 12% upwards. Nope. It might lose some. So bad decision. Will lose votes. Detached from reality. But makes true believers feel righteous. --> Ie the perfect greens policy

Ai succeeds when what matters is FORM not SUBSTANCE. If you find ai helpful for your job, it is an admission that your job is principally about form. Marking is only about form if you are fundamentally doing it wrong

See my pinned thread for some work in this area. More recently I have started talking about the 'hybridisation' of pseudolaw and genAI where the two phenomena are merging together

I think this is probably a case of convergence: both llms and srls produce outputs that mirror the *form* of legal reasoning without the underlying substance. LLMs are fundamentally incapable of the genuine generative synthesis of true legal reasoning & instead produces something that sounds lawish

Its pareidolia. Pure and simple

This is so bad. This tech has *no* legitimate role in actual decision making. It can play a role in other parts of process, but is imo unlawful for any administrative or judicial decision

I refuse to endorse this very sensible reading...

I am not sure what this says about how the ABC views farmers, but its headline here is effectively "Farmer says she can count to five!!!!"

He wants panic? Ultimately this is people doing stupid shit. Let's not pretend otherwise- it both disempowers us, and allows others to avoid responsibility

Dr Joe McIntyre @drjoemcintyre.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
How odd. I mean he is 💯 falling for the pareidolia problem here. There is no agency in 'agentic' models, but there is the illusion of it. It continues to shock me how many people struggle with this. Enjoyed your article btw

I had one of these where I was credited as 'author' on a regional paper story that was a genAI sloppification of a media release i was involved in

Sure. But there has been an extraordinary acceleration under Trump. High sea murderporn is a new twist

Yes. But art 2(4) of UN charter and jus cogens prohibitions were ignored in Iran. The US is not feeling particularly bound by any international law (or even maintaining a veneer of compliance) atm

Its conceptual pareidolia. Zealots largely lack the knowledge necessary to pierce the illusion

I predict he will go spectacularly broke within 10 years. He is leveraged to the sky with financially suspect overvalued companies

I was presenting on this just this week. GenAI doesn't increase access to law. It increases access to pseudolaw.

Oh the US is going to funnel 100s of billions into this. And actually end up missing the point. Cheap and disposable is the future for warfare. But less profit that way. Better to send a $5m patriot at a $20k drone...
