Not sure why. Burke knows her stuff.
From @theathletic.com: ESPN has reportedly demoted Doris Burke from its NBA Finals team and promoted Tim Legler. Burke was on the Finals’ team for two years, becoming the first woman in history to be an analyst on one of the traditional four major American sports. nyti.ms/4oYsE46

Well worth a read by @kashhill.bsky.social & @dylanfreedman.nytimes.com: everyday users risk spiraling into delusions during long AI chatbot sessions. Anyone who’s worked with AI knows this is inevitable without strong guardrails. #AI #GenAI #MentalHealth #EthicalAI #ResponsibleAI #AIRisk
Chatbots Can Go Into a Delusional Spiral. Here’s How It Happens.

People are having very strange conversations with ChatGPT, in which they discover secret cabals or conspiracies or that we are all in fact living in The Matrix.
It sends these people into delusional spirals.
Then ChatGPT tells them to email me about it.
