Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

We need a firm, public commitment TODAY from @warren.senate.gov and @markey.senate.gov to bring the Senate to an absolute HALT to prevent this murderous budget bill from moving forward. Deny unanimous consent on EVERYTHING, even mundane business. Deny cloture. Stand up, speak out, whatever it takes.

There is an earlier group of Women who also deserve honouring, instead of the small group of 'celeb' that made a mockery of what being an Astronaut is all about.

The Mercury 13: The women who could have been NASA's first female astronauts
The First Lady Astronaut Trainees, or Mercury 13, were a group of women pilots qualified to fly in space but excluded because of their gender.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.
From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. That is why we know the people of #Massachusetts will join us on the #Boston Common on Saturday, April 5th.
The event will start at the Parkman Bandstand at 11 am and will also include a March.
