"I agree with Mr. Comey that the Attorney General’s attempt to install Ms. Halligan as Interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia was invalid. And because Ms. Halligan had no lawful authority to present the indictment, I will grant Mr. Comey’s motion and dismiss the indictment."

The amorality of tech executives and Silicon Valley including their rampant greed, will ensure that we will have a significant percentage of the internet devoted to deepfakes of violence against women.
I know why women choose the bear. It should be self-evident by now.

unless an AI platform can show they took every action to stop this, executives should go to prison. this behaviour has always been harmful and not treated seriously enough but the ability to make ultra realistic fakes increases the harm dramatically. stop it or go to prison has to be the choice.

But mah followahs!!
If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

The irony of these people complaining about the invented dangers of immigrants and then welcoming brain pollution from overseas hustlers.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
