I’ve been noting that one of the main use cases that everyday users had already been putting LLMs and agents to use is the compilation of dossiers for peer-on-peer surveillance and automated gang-stalking (swarm-stalking) of other citizens, so of course Meta is copying that as a feature.

What's fun about this whole contretemps and why it's worth watching again is how smirky Schmitt starts out - this is going to be his big moment – and how honest a puzzled Smith comes off, and how sharp Klobuchar was to quickly figure out the basic mistake. And then how pissy Schmitt gets at her.

How the RAF Fairford incident went from 'suspected bomb plot' to police bail. Basically you can't hold people on suspicion of explosives offences in the absence of evidence of explosives and it shouldn't need saying but you really shouldn't believe a word Trump says about anything.
