This remains a razor I use when evaluating the administration's approach to healthcare policy. There are a few direct ways it can put money directly in his pocket, and as such, it should remain a lower priority. However, the "punish enemies" push still drives negative revenue dynamics
A five-byline alert from NYT:
“.. Over the past few months, Mr. Witkoff and Sheikh Tahnoon had become both diplomatic allies and business partners, testing the limits of ethics rules while enriching the president ..”

Hard to imagine a more aggressively backward view than this
I hope everyone working on LLMs has reckoned with their role in building a technology that, so far, has offered little to no benefit to humanity — while causing real harm by degrading art, undermining labor in creative industries, and straight up automating political propaganda

The Boeing deal was a proud accomplishment of the first term
