The Talmud teaches that anyone who sustains one soul, has sustained an entire world. For generations, Jewish New Yorkers have sustained our city. Today, we are launching the first-ever municipal Strategy to Combat Antisemitism.

17/ That is why “AI lies” is too shallow. AI is becoming an intermediary between the information environment and human belief. Ask for sources. Open them. Check the original reporting. Especially during a crisis, never confuse a fluent answer with a verified one. These are the times we are in.

Are you fasting tomorrow? This is your starting gun for water drinking. We are going to do 3L of water over the next 6 hours, OK? It's completely doable. Go and drink 500ml of water right now. Go. We go again in 45 minutes.

Would have been easy to have missed this as it came out with little fanfare on Friday but this is a helpful Select Committee report on the official statistics system, which also rightly makes the case for preserving independence (rather than asserting Ministerial control)

almost every time someone "well actuallys" me about the usefulness of general-purpose AI it is to defend a breakthrough made by a narrow ML system, and this halo of association is so important to both OpenAI and Anthropic, and is presumably why they are now pursuing maths problems

@courtneymilan.com I just pulled this from a post over on Facebook, felt like it might be info worth sharing...

From Laura Resnick:

"Absolutely furious right now.

The Anthropic settlement admin, in the huge AI copyright infringement case, is sending claimants information about claim disputes, disagreements or confusion over allocation of the settlement funds, etc.

Someone using the name "Stephen Edgington" is claiming 100% ownership and 100% of the settlement $ for more than 20 of my copyrighted books. I've never heard of this person, and I'm the sole copyright holder in every instance. So I have to upload my copyright documentation for every damn book to refute his fraudulent claim."

From Laura Resnick (cont'd):

"I'm also writing to the settlement admin, with copyright evidence attached, to report "Stephen Edgington" for fraud and urge them to pursue this matter and hold that "claimant" accountable. I assume "he" is filing a 100% claim to the books of dozens (hundreds?) of writers in hopes of receiving Anthropic settlement money to which he has no right whatsoever, in instances where the actual copyright holders or their heirs have NOT filed a claim and so there is no one to challenge his fraud."

100 arrests without a conviction? I told y'all two things were true: 1) No immigrant has been stopped by ICE more times than I've been stopped by cops for driving/existing while Black. 2) I'm not even in the top 10% of innocent Black men frequently stopped by cops. My experience is not unique.🤷🏿‍♂️

Justice for survivors of sex abuse. And justice served to sexual abusers. Here’s a transcript in which Jes Staley ‘doesn’t recall’ any sex happening, forced or unforced. What an absolute banker, trying to butch it out oversight.house.gov/wp-content/u...

Mr. Epstein is referring to "a big movie, Snow White." quote, "I would love to take photos of you in a Snow White costume. costume store."
And then he says,
You can get it from the
Do you see it?
Mr. Sullivan. I do.
BY :
Q And I can represent to you that Mr. Epstein is sending that email to the same woman
who sent the email to him saying that the Snow White was fucked.
It appears, looking at all of these emails together, that Mr. Epstein told this young woman to
buy a Snow White costume and then instructed her to have sex with you while wearing it.
Your testimony today is that that did not happen, correct?
A Where is he -- where is he instructing her to have sex with me?
Q I said it appears, taking these emails together, that that is what is happening here.
He sends this woman an email on June 20th, which is about 2-1/2 weeks before you send the
email to him saying "say hi to Snow White," which is 1 day before she sends the email to him saying
that the Snow White was fucked twice.
Mr. Sullivan. What is the question?
BY :
Q Taken together, based on these emails, it appears that Mr. Epstein told this young
woman to buy a Snow White costume and then instructed her to have sex with you while wearing it.
A I think that is speculation on your part.
Q Your testimony is that that is not what happened?

🧵 You've heard this tune before: "A Black guy did it!" What happens when White people weaponize their whiteness—especially in criminal matters? Black people get harassed, or worse—until the truth comes out. You might want to bring a 🥃when you pull up your seat🪑. (cont)

Mosaic chicken, New Orleans (Mosaic Chicken is a great band name btw)

Downward POV of a sidewalk section that is your typical gray dirty cracked concrete. Embedded in that concrete is mosaic chicken representation. The towels are mostly white as are the feathers of a chicken with the tail being mainly an assortment of pink tiles with some blue at the tip, the wings primarily half royal blue and half sky blue with the tip being Navy blue, and the head being red tiles with some orange and yellow about the neck.

Too, listening to the attacks on Fauci earlier this week, I suddenly realized how analogous this was to 9/11. A disaster that gave rise to great social solidarity and pro-social behavior is a threat to a regime with authoritarian aspirations.
