Eventually AI wastes everybody's time. Now it's archivists and librarians.
Folks might not know a lot of people are getting *very* upset that the materials they request are not available in the libraries/archives they're requesting from.
We're getting lots here at the Library of Virginia: requests of documents likely surfaced by large language models that *do not exist*.

I wish a notice like this wasn't necessary.

Since the dumbest people's ignorance of food translates to them thinking food is 3D printed which is very bizarre because 3D printed food is amazing. Literally can surpass anything natural in theory and current tests

11 officers present to arrest Luigi Mangione "for taking 40 minutes to eat his McDonald's meal" including NYPD officers who were far outside jurisdiction and had invited themselves. They can be heard interrupting Altoona police radio to announce they'll be arriving despite being ignored by local PD.

Bourgeois leaders since the beginning of time: the issue isn't all our murder and it's you complained about it so rudely
❗️"When Zelenskyy first met with Putin (in 2019), he said: 'I want two things. I want Crimea back, and we will become a member of NATO.' That wasn't said very nicely either," – Trump.

“…Goodyear’s police department appears to be one of the first to substitute hand-drawn sketches of suspects with lifelike images generated by AI.”
Have you seen this (AI-generated) man? Police swap suspect sketches for AI.
Police in a Phoenix suburb appear to be the first department in the nation to use AI for suspect sketches, a practice that raises concerns among some experts.

If I told you hey there's a guy at the airport raving about the Nourishment of a Mother's Breast, who would you think it is. Wrong it's the U.S. secretary of health and human services
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

“look at them trying to rip away healthcare from this tiny population while your bills go up” would be a good message but instead politicians say we’re a “distraction” which is just transphobia in another tongue
Now that Democrats are out of office, it just doesn't have as much resonance. Now, you could easily flip it to say "President Trump cares more about his ballroom than bringing down costs." It's hard to make anti-trans messages stick when coffee and bananas cost more.

under capitalism, concessions given to quell the working class can be revoked on the whim of the ruling class
As a Finn I'm sorry to tell you this isn't true (anymore). We used to have good programs to end homelessness but now we have a rightwing government and homelessness is 📈, even among families with children.
Also the shorter work weeks and days are only ideas of some people, not an official plan.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
