This isn't #Trump. This is a well-organized group of conservative extremist organizations that banded together to execute their agendas once their perfectly-aligned mouthpiece was elected. There are only 3 ways I see that this stops: 1. A coup of sorts, executed by an organized group of #Republicans

I am firmly between these two camps at the moment. The daily deluge of updates detailing the dismantling of the American system is troubling, to the extent I've been referring to our phones as " #Apocalypse Rectangles", yet to look away and say nothing feels inadequate. (continues in comments...)

The AI companies have been caught building AIs that only tell us what we want to hear. If we don't get a handle on it, that's gonna go really badly: www.platformer.news/meta-ai-chat...

Well, some people ask chatbots for permission to do harm — to themselves or others. Some people ask it to validate their deranged conspiracy theories. Others ask it for confirmation that they are the messiah.

Many folks still look down on anyone who would engage a chatbot in this way. But it has always been clear that chatbots elicit surprisingly strong reactions from people. It has been almost three years since a Google engineer declared that an early language model at the company was already sentient, based on the conversations he had with it then. The models are much more realistic now, and the illusion is correspondingly more powerful.
