Scientists have been using ML in biology and Astronomy for like 40 years. Most use cases for naturalistic language processing and LLMs are turning out to be skinner boxes with positive survivor bias.

In answering discrete questions based on very specific data sets, but require a lot of expert level review or you'll find out things like "there's a 100% chance x-ray negatives labeled 'here's the cancer' contain cancer," when what you wanted was a novel way to detect cancer.

So much of "AI" discourse is hamstrung by marketing garbage double speak. "AI" is like 8 different raccoons in a trench coat. LLM are fun toys! Diffusors are interesting and do seem to have some interesting use cases in machine image processing (not art). Neural nets and ML are actually hella useful

What 6? 7 years ago? Lawfare wrote at length about the 25th amendment. Even with a functional cabinet, which this one is not, the 25th fundamentally doesn't do this. The 25th allows a cabinet with a incapacitated incumbent to invoke succession. What you want is impeachment.

The DNC can't stop anything. I don't understand how a small subset of bernie Bros are of the opinion that the DNC is a secret cabal of earth shaping magicians. It's just a fundraising committee.
