Bill has been a remarkably terrible housing secretary, yet it may be possible he accidentally helps America.

Bessent: "They made me sell my humble soy bean farm!"
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Sunday that he divested from his holdings of thousands of acres of North Dakota soybean farmland last week to comply with his federal ethics agreement.

At the end of a long hard day of surviving on a ruthless Capital planet that puts technology gains against the well-being of humans beings, I like to ask the nearest large language model near me, why being seen as a sexual matador could be interpreted as a mocking metaphor.

I feel like this might be a metaphor for something, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

It's pretty wild that the last third of 2001: A Space Odyssey revolved around pulling the plug on an AI that made one mistake.

I remember thinking during the bush years, department of defense? How often has defence been need for the US. We're a decaying empire that loses just about every fight we've ever been in. I think 'department of battles' would probably be the more appropriate name.

I'm not sure what I was expecting when I pressed play, but even if Tom Homan wasn't a fascist, he is terrible at being interviewed and talking in general. He has the speaking cadence of robot produced in a Fox News factory.

Frankly, this is kind of the reactionary hysteria I've come to expect in the United States. Apparently being terminally online is a global epidemic.

My list is actually fairly long, but for right now this may be the dumbest of the AI bilge I'm currently subjected to on a daily basis.
Stolen art style repackaged as "creativity" spelled incorrectly by AI.

In truth, AI must be destroyed if civilization is ever to recover from our engorgement on technology. But this one's pretty nice!

Is there no advocate proposing a virtual reality simulator for the elderly to simulate going back in time so they can vote for a robust public transportation system for everyone before taking away their license at the end of the program IRL?

While I am wildly disappointed by the election results for president, as a Michigander I am still so pleased with the winner of the 'I voted' sticker they chose. Would love to see it again in the midterms.

I desperately want to believe that there is a floor to how accepting humans are of tools that are going to turn our species into a stimuli responsive animal with little original thought of it's own. I mean more so than now.
