“Carney’s official statement deserves to be read in full, slowly, with a beer, because underneath the diplomatic wallpaper it’s the most quietly savage document a G7 leader’s put out in years. It reads like a bank manager foreclosing on a bloke’s entire self-image & the bank manager is enjoying it.”

Yuuuup. Understanding how LLMs and generative "AI" work is not some sort of secret knowledge, nor at its heart an unenduringly complex topic, and it turns out writers, who generally how to do research, are in a good position to get a bead on them.

I worry that most cynical among us, hopped up on 30 years of law and order rhetoric, will say "this is the system working: he didn't do anything wrong and now he's free." As if the terror and wide-scale publicity of an arrest and federal prosecution is not a horrible punishment in and of itself.
