Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

The beauty of Hinton's recommendation is that it doesn't take the big three's word for anything and it doesn't allow the biggest players in the market to monopolize the regulatory framework to set up a cartel that benefits them while harming the startups and small players.

This same shit happened during trump 1.0, albeit not in court. Trump got mad at a newspaper or something, claiming they made up a source that didn’t exist when actually it was Matt Pottinger on a wh sanctioned call, where the wh asked media to refer to him as a senior administration official iirc.

Reminder: SNAP has an outstanding ROI. Every dollar spent toward SNAP generates $1.54 in economic activity. SNAP cuts didn’t get the attention that Medicaid cuts understandably did, but they were massive and will prove deeply harmful to millions of Americans’ food security — and to local economies.

When pundits or politicians say "vanity projects," it sounds like he's getting a nose job or coloring his hair. He's not just touching up DC. He's demolishing it. Beating cherished monuments and public spaces to a pulp with a kind of cruel glee. He is destroying America's heritage landscapes.

He's the sick grandmother no longer getting healthcare. He's the homeless arrested for sleeping outside. We will be judged by him by how we treat them: Matthew 25:31-46. It's a broken Christianity that threatens people with Jesus' return while refusing to recognize him in the faces of those who are suffering.
