Already unacceptable to use LLMs to draft filings and even worse, if you do, not to have checked the citations. But if you ARE going to do that, why of all LLMs out there would you use *GROK*?
An attorney couldn't stop using Grok (?!) to help draft filings, producing "a flood of tainted filings" & apparently triggering the implosion of a law firm & 3 lawyers' careers 🤖😵 The court called her misconduct "particularly egregious & prolific"

This scorching obit of James Watson features a narrative & cast still referenced by modern eugenicists—quite eerie

His obsession with challenging “the establishment” meant he couldn’t stop blowing up his own legacy

What a warning it should be to all today’s goons

I'm not a Nobel winning economist, but it seems to me the world's largest retailer and the worlds largest delivery services laying off hundreds of thousands right before the busiest retail and delivery season of the year is perhaps not an optimistic indicator of Trump's promised "Golden Age"

Just to recap, the actual president found an AI-generated video of a fake news report depicting a fake announcement about an imaginary healthcare system based on a technology that doesn’t exist and posted it on his official social media account
This was always the funniest conspiracy theory to me — that there are MRI machine-like devices that can cure all known illnesses in seconds, but the government has been hiding them — and Trump just posted an AI generated video of himself announcing they're real. We're cooked!
Trump tonight appears to have pushed the false "medbed" conspiracy theory, which has spread in the far-right internet over the years. www.yahoo.com/news/qanon-c...

Beautiful. I still remember a friend coming over to our place when we were about 5 or 6 and my parents giving us ice cream. “Oh, have you just been to France?” she asked. Much confusion ensued, until it became clear that her parents had told her you could only get ice cream in France 🍦
parents tell their kids the funniest lies. i was on a flight into miami the other day and heard the kid next to me ask their dad if they can get sushi when they land. he says no, there's no sushi in town. IN MIAMI lmao

Det som sker nu är en illustration av Jesus ord i bergspredikan: Forsell och den svenska regeringen mäts just nu med samma mått som den använt för att bedöma andra.

Den retorik som svenska politiker använt mot utsatta nu kommer i retur, för att slå mot dem själva.

We just got a new piece of office equipment delivered from Germany and my colleague, from the depths of the instruction manual, suddenly pipes up:

"They always make machines too complicated."

I mean, look, if Mamdani actually had invented time travel, went back in time and invented Twitter so it existed six years before it was created, to tweet about something that happened when he was 9 yeas old, with a picture of him at age 33, well... then maybe it's something to talk about...

To make a broader point, as of now, everyone needs to readjust their priors and be inherently skeptical about any video under 10 seconds long without cuts. That is where we are on the current state of AI video and audio.
Hadn’t realized AI ICE raid videos would be a thing but yikes, here we are.

This is not a real video.
