And they think AI will take all the engineering jobs 🤣
The Heber City Police Department started using a pair of AI programs, Draft One and Code Four, to automatically generate police reports from body camera footage in December.

Food causes 22-34% of climate change.
But it only gets 4% of the media coverage.
Why? Neglect. Misunderstanding. And a hell of a lot of greenwashing.

Just noting that climate activists — and, indeed, researchers into climate communication, science, and politics — have been saying this about our opponents for years.
So much of the crisis is the fact that liberals are unwilling to describe what's happening, because they're scared to say that their opponents are lying, are operating in bad faith, want evil or harmful policy, and don't share our basic goals about what society should look like
