A classic of the school funding advocacy genre (that happens to be true): it costs society less to educate a child today than to pay for the consequences of not having educated them tomorrow.
Walz: "You can buy school buses and school meals or you can buy prison buses and prison meals. We'd rather buy the school buses. We'd rather invest on the front end."

I am an Undecided Voter. and I really need help. I have been locked in my bathroom for days even though there is no lock on the door that I remember. Should I try pushing the door instead of pulling it? I don't know. I don't know what to do. I'm very scared and very very mad.

I think the point of this isn't so much to create convincing news footage so much as to cast doubt on actual news footage. It allows anyone to say "well that's probably fake." It degrades the information environment as a whole and I've always felt that is going to be AI's main impact
