Proud of the CDCers who fought to get this vital info out! 30% of our workforce is gone. Heartbroken by the loss of brilliant scientists, institutional knowledge, & frankly my friends, colleagues, & mentors. An understaffed CDC harms the public & leaves the US vulnerable. Rebuilding will take years

The US Senate hearing with Jack Smith today sure outed the GOP senators who were seditious conspirators from any senator who was not.

This is even likelier than history suggests because, after its own experience, the U.S. should be less willing to play footsie with fascist regimes elsewhere in the future. At least as long as Democrats are in charge.

To be fair, the single most publicly-accessed example of "AI" in the world can't find its ass with a flashlight and it's right on top of the search listings, where the most accurate search result used to be. Every LLM suffers from token drift over time so it's only a question of WHEN they're wrong.

A thing I learned not too long ago is that when an LLM selects a token that leads it down an incorrect path (factually), it has no way to back up, or even know that it should back up, it's just on to the next likely bit. Literally every LLM is just posting their way through it. What an image.
