NEW: GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx told backers on a Zoom call last night that he doesn't regret slamming his wife into a door to teach her a lesson about self-defense. "I'd do it again," Marx said. Marx says she fake cried and physicality is just the nature of their relationship.

Honestly, calling yourself an "AI influencer" should immediately signal that your opinion doesn't matter.

ICE just kidnapped a woman at LAX airport Saturday Oct 3, 12:50AM. A community member was able to record when several ICE goons who refused to identify themselves grabbed the woman, put her into a van and then drove off.

Everyone is caught up on the hubris and they should be, but I want to point out the boneheaded stupidity of thinking that you could convince the most prominent Christian in the world that man could create imago dei on his own

The fact is Trump not only lost his war but it's the biggest L the US has taken at least since Vietnam. Our bases are destroyed & abandoned, Iran is emboldened, China is toying w/ us. Hegseth & co want to move on to culture war slop, but they got routed & we'll be dealing w/repercussions for decades

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."

Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

The difficulty we face is calls for more evidence can be used as a tactic to move forward and then once the thing is built, it becomes impossible to unbuild.

If that's how he's using the word understand, then that's fine. There are plenty of definitions, some of which require consciousness.

Most sci-fi has AI gaining consciousness and destroying everything. Here's a reminder that the more likely scenario is AI destroys everything because humans asked it to.

I'm not downplaying how incredible this technology is, I'm just not sure why "understanding" is something we need to ascribe to it. It can accomplish great and terrible things without consciousness or understanding.

Your brain is processing massive amounts of sensory data right now. Much of which is informed by "memory", also without your awareness or understanding. Insight is your brain solving a problem before you understand why.
