Just had my first encounter with a business using an AI to answer the phone and not only did it make me feel uncomfortable, it wasn’t able to help me, it captured my data incorrectly, and then any time it tried to bounce me to a human it hung up on me.

We took on a powerful incumbent who was expected to coast to reelection.

We faced more corporate PAC money than has ever been spent attacking a candidate in a Seattle election.

We built a people-powered movement rooted in hope for our city’s future.

And we won.

This is YOUR city!

I’m the first congressional candidate to be indicted under the second Trump administration.

But if things keep going the way they are, I won’t be the last.

That’s why I need to fight these charges with everything we’ve got. Help us do that here: katforillinois.com/legal

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

Really, truly amazing that OpenAI wants us to believe that they are worth a trillion dollars but also they are so desperate for revenue that they created an infinite SlopTok app that opens them up to a billion lawsuits just so that they can maybe someday make it even worse by filling it with ads.

AI cannot go through a bad breakup, it can’t recover from an addiction, it can’t fall in love, it can’t be oppressed, it can’t lose a child, it can’t get rich, it can’t feel the sun on its skin, it can’t go on road trips, it can’t have sex, it can’t get drunk, it can’t regret.

It can’t make art.

New rule. A parent may only propose removing a book from the school library only after reading it in its entirety and delivering a book report to the librarian. Until then no discussion shall be entered into.

Seems like ppl might finally be catching up to the idea that the LLM rollout has just been pivot-to-video but for every single facet of society/industry & 1000x worse.

The fact that the thing we're calling artificial intelligence *can't do math* and yet we're jamming it into programs that successfully *have done math* for decades, then warning people against using the AI to do math, seems like an excellent summary of where we are.
Good thing no one uses Microsoft Excel for anything related to legal, regulatory or compliance business functions

The ability of US sports to have a sponsorship for every single thing is simultaneously impressive and cringeworthy. “Stoppage time brought to you by Nationwide”. Seriously?!

He didn't get to the moon but he got his crew home, and that was the more remarkable task.

Yeah so throwing dildos at women athletes on the court is an actual example of gender-based violence against women in sports—one that transphobes and acquiescent Dems will surely make 1000% less noise about
