People talking about "LLMs can't make new information" is so fucking funny. Ah yeah, AlphaZero hasn't found new chess strategies. Protein folding models don't make information.

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.
Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.
