I heard the phrase "pretty unanimously" used to summarize "7 for, 2 against" and I hate it. You're either unanimous or you're not.

I spent a year watching school administrators do their jobs—and interviewing the students most impacted. I spoke to @thecut.com in a long-form Q&A about what I saw. Mainly, a system designed to protect perpetrators and punish victims in each and every case.

The Reason Why Colleges Still Fail to Address Sexual Violence

The “Cornell Seven” case highlights what’s wrong with Trump’s Title IX rules — and how the system was always designed to fail.

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.

, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.

As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Most would still chuckle. Then I'd ask if they'd be willing to use those terms about their loved ones. Awkward silence. Then we'd go through the data on how many men committed violent acts. And they would get looks of panic that they might be implicated.

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

This is a good example of how you need quite a lot of detail of how these systems *actually* work to understand what the risks are, and how over-indexing on sci-fi can lead you a bit astray on what the future looks like

the commercial LLM guys believe that infinitely layering more agents on top of each other is how you get to the promised future. Any single LLM can't actually be Her from Her, and progress was made by having agents work together on loops, so to get Star Trek Lt. Data you keep doing that forever

There's a post that compares "legitimate use of AI" to arson and baking, but I think it's more appropriate to say that this is like responding "but bricks are used to build houses" when everyone's saying we should stop giving bricks of cocaine to children.

I keep reading that the models are nebulously good but this article is special because the improvement mathematicians are seeing could only come from training on all of their published material and a bunch of their unpublished stuff. LLMs being able to regurgitate average text makes sense.
