DOGE Bro’s Grant Review Process Was Literally Just Asking ChatGPT ‘Is This DEI?’
Federal grants that had been approved after a full application and review process were terminated by some random inexperienced DOGE bros based on whether ChatGPT could explain—in under 120 characters—that they were "related to DEI." That's what the newly released proposed amended complaint from the Authors Guild against the US government reveals about how DOGE actually decided which National Endowment for the Humanities grants to kill.

I catch copy errors literally every day in major news outlets — today in CNN, probably multiple times a week in New York Times, on and on. media companies, you already aren’t paying for enough copy editors, and whatever you’re leaving to AI is not catching this stuff! pls get it together!

I got a tip that all over the world, people are using a dead-simple hack to manipulate AI behavior. It turns out changing what AI tells other people can be as easy as writing a blog post *on your own website*
I didn’t believe it, so I decided to test it myself www.bbc.com/future/artic...

I hacked ChatGPT and Google's AI – and it only took 20 minutes
I found a way to make AI tell you lies – and I'm not the only one.

I think you guys are meaning to criticize Adam Wren for taking this quote out of the context of the story, which is flattering and the quote serves a specific purpose in. Wren is the one taking it out of context for a dunk. Also stop screenshotting tweets it sucks and is stupid engagement bait.

What Epstein reveals is the ubiquitous sexual abuse of women & girls as a way for men to cement their friendships and demonstrate their status. It happens among billionaires, it happens among frat boys, it happens among preachers and tech workers and union contractors, because it happens among men.

I think a lot of short-sighted newspaper editors think they can backfill laid-off arts critics + reporters with wire. But what happens when the wire coverage doesn’t exist anymore? WaPo is a big distributor of this type of work and they just decimated their arts dept.
