“I met with this [Haitian] guy who has a 1-year-old, and he was apprehended after ICE spotted him at a gas station in Springfield, around late August,” Kersh told me. “I was asking him questions at Butler County [jail], and he talked about how he came here: He got an appointment through a church or something like that [when President Joe Biden was in office]. He met with Border Patrol, and they sat him down and shook his hand. And then his voice broke. Through tears, he said: ‘They shook my hand and they said, ‘Welcome to the United States,’ and yesterday they arrested me.’ He’s just crying. He had to stop for a good solid minute to catch himself. To me, that really encapsulated the confusion and fear for so many people now. They were welcomed into this country and now the same agency is arresting them and throwing them in jail.”

Remember this picture, & others like it, every time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970s. Many of the cities we admire made tough choices regarding cars in the past, and are still making better choices today. Better choices instead of excuses.
Wide Amsterdam Road filled with jammed colourful cars, stuck in traffic congestion.

This isn’t AI guessing texts based on probability. There is still some probabilistic stuff happening here re: ink detection. But it’s not anything like an LLM trained on a corpus of classical texts, and it involves a huge amount of human expertise.

A lot of media coverage of the ‘AI’ reading of the Herculaneum scrolls really fails to understand what’s happened here. There’s no language processing happening, the AI/ML is not trained on a corpus of texts or language. It can detect ink to see shapes. HUMAN EXPERTS are then transcribing the text.
A screenshot from here: https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2025-02-07-inside-herculaneum-scroll-seen-first-time-almost-2000-years

It explains that the machine learning involves only the detection of ink

Honestly, even under George W. Bush or Richard Nixon this would be an entertaining event. Every president but Trump would have understood that the best way to benefit from this would be to be a part of it, but not the whole thing. Trump can't stand not being the whole thing.
