Attorney James Hollis says that over 80% of people in Alligator Alcatraz are sick, many with Covid symptoms. This is eugenics. People have already died in ICE custody. Many will be disabled. The inhumane conditions are ripe for the spread of disease.

Fox News keeps using "socialist" as a slur to appeal to their uneducated crowd, but Mamdani supports strong public services, such as public transit, rent stabilization, and education. That's democratic socialism, not socialism. You want nice things in NYC, like in parts of Europe? Support him.

It is remarkable - and ridiculous - that the head of ChatGPT at OpenAI can still not directly explain why people use ChatGPT
Let’s talk about just the state of ChatGPT itself. It’s the fastest-growing consumer product of all time. Like I mentioned earlier, its user base has nearly quadrupled in the last year, and that’s at a pretty huge scale. I think a lot of people on the outside are wondering where this growth is coming from.
Can you share why ChatGPT is growing, how it’s growing, or anything about its biggest markets and demographics?
The first hire I made after ChatGPT was a data scientist, because I was so confused. I would be talking to every user and they would tell me a different story as to why they were loving ChatGPT, and it was just deeply confusing to me and I had to get to the bottom of it. Over time, I got a sense of what the use cases were. There was writing and there was technical stuff like coding, and there was chit-chat, and there was searchy stuff like informational queries, et cetera.
I think largely those use cases are still here to stay. So if you look at what people are doing, it’s not completely different from a year ago, or before we had all this growth. I do think that a few things have changed. Obviously, we have done a bunch of work on the product. That work you can break down into sort of pure model improvements like the behavior, the personality, its capabilities, its likelihood of refusing a request.
Then sort of hybrid product and research capabilities, like search has been a really big one. Personalization has been a really exciting improvement as well. And then your classic “growth work,” which we do surprisingly little of, but things like not having to log into ChatGPT to use it were a tremendous success. It was, again, super aligned with users. It’s not a growth hack, it’s just actually making the product much more accessible to people who want to use it.
So it’s been a third, a third, a third between those three different categories of things: pre-model improvements, research product hybrid improvements like search, and then your classic removing fr…On the first one, there’s just, I think, a natural effect of watching the people around you starting to use it. There’s so much discovery that happens off product. If you ever go on TikTok, there’s these videos where people are sharing their use cases and there’s tens of thousands of comments and every use case in there. It’s like when you go to the Instant Pot community online, where all these recipes are there. People are sharing their prompts, and I think that just takes time to develop and for people to watch what other people are doing. So I think this empty box problem, we’re starting to see some traction against it just by all the out-of-product discovery that’s happening. And then the other thing, this is a bit more philosophical, but I really do believe it, which is I think that delegation is a very unnatural thing for most people.
I sit here in Silicon Valley and I’m a manager of people and I had to learn how to delegate, but 10 percent of the world is using this product weekly. And for most of them, I don’t think the idea of, “I have a task and I’m going to assign it to someone,” is super natural. It takes actually time to really understand yourself and reflect after you’ve begun to use the product to crack that. That has nothing to do with product, that has nothing to do with marketing or social or anything. That just has to do with, I think, people having a little bit of time to process and try this out and learn. I think that’s a huge part of the growth as well.
