NEW: The death shadow cast by Musk.

“When U.S.-supported soup kitchens were forced to close, babies starved quietly, their mothers said, while older siblings died begging for food.”

The world’s richest man did this to the world’s poorest children.

Further re the ICE masked secret police. A thing that rule of law scholars know & the rest of America is discovering is if you create violence-delivery agencies to abuse marginalized populations without an internal legal culture, they tend to expand their scope and lawlessness

Looking out the window admiring the ambient gnarl. The details of natural processes are impossible to predict. Breezes, rocking leaves, flowing water, your bod, your mind—all are chaotic. Chaos isn’t rare. It’s not a disease. It’s the norm. It’s health. And every second of your life is different.

If you have used LLM image generators, you know they are hard to control: LLM had to send a prompt to a separate image generation tool, it did not not make the image.

Gemini is the first public release of a full multimodal LLM that can directly make images. This allows the systems to do detail work
