Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

I’m not saying everyone needs to do *this*.
But @booker.senate.gov figured out the biggest best thing HE could do right now. And then he did it.

Everyone participating in or considering participating in this April Fools' Day bullshit, read the damn room. As if our every waking moment isn't a battle against misinformation.

Even Trump has got to be surprised by how much of the media has defaulted to, "Trump posted a long tweet that is the law now," and reality gets filed under "however, critics say..."
It’s really strange how Trump figured out that Executive Orders are basically “longer tweets that drive giant media attention” and the media hasn’t figured it’s being played each time they report on these as if it’s Moses coming down the Mount with stone tablets.
DC is uniquely vulnerable and we really need all of you with State representation to join us in pushing back against what promises to be a ton of cruel and unnecessary actions: www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

A big part of the problem is stupid people have been convinced by rich people that AI is God, when AI is closer to an automatic dog food dispenser.

If you’re a Visa cardholder you can let them know you won’t be any longer if they do business with fElon. I called and they said they’re taking comments at askvisa@visa.com. Maybe if enough of us complain they’ll pull the deal.
