Shower Thought: let AI help write school papers. Stop trying to catch them.
TL;DR - they're still responsible for the final product. If it's slop, it'll show.

First thought: if I'm a company that cares about my client base, at minimum I'd be requiring content creators to indicate their AI use, and allowing listeners to filter those out.
Second thought: nobody's going to listen to this, or at least, not enough to make a profit. This bubble will burst.

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵
An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

IMO, Dems should give up trying to "appeal to centrists" and start looking for the most articulate and clear-speaking people within their ranks.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has emerged as one of the Democratic Party’s leading voices. But some worry she will turn off the centrist voters needed to win competitive races.

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

I've heard more than one story of illicit fronts having the BEST food.
Back before Perth had a coffee culture, there was a small cafe in the city. It was a front for illegal gambling and other infelicities, but the guy who ran the place used his mother's recipe to make the best lasagna I've had in my life. I've mourned it for more than 30 years now.
