Why is it called the Department of War and not the Department of Ultimate War-Man Warring? Are we losing our edge? Can we get truck nuts on the tanks, perhaps?

So sorry for all the art thief posts, but this is really really annoying me and I want to do everything I can so I can move on.

This person literally stole my artwork, posted it on TikTok claiming it as their own, removed my comments calling them out, blocked me, and then posted another one of my art pieces right afterward.

I'm sure this was always the case, but the whiplash in political expression by major corporations during roughly the last 3 years has been the ultimate proof that they are completely amoral, and so their support shouldn't be celebrated unless it's instrumentally useful.

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

Whoa.
New RCT shows a familiar result on LLMs & medicine:
Doctors given clinical vignettes produce significantly more accurate diagnoses when they also consult with a custom GPT built with the (obsolete) GPT-4 than doctors with Google/Pubmed but not AI.
Yet AI alone is as accurate as doctors + AI.

Imagine being an ad person for facebook, teaching beauty and weightloss companies how to target teen girls who had deleted selfies seconds before with ads, and then going home and thinking you're a good person. Probably thinking you're better than others
