BREAKING NYT: A billionaire wanted a Trump pardon. His family gave Alina Habba a $50 million deal. Julio Herrera Velutini, a prominent Venezuelan, was seeking clemency. He got it not long after his daughter gave Habba, a lawyer close to Trump, an extraordinarily lucrative job.

This is why I say that in the age of AI, it is imperative to be pro-human. Accuracy is not the measure of the value of literature. It is whether your intended audience, other humans, feel seen, recognized, moved by your work. This is what makes work human. This is not something AI can capture.
On the methodology, we should reject this kind of article immediately. Even accepting AI detection on its face, accuracy is not 100%. Without other proofs this is not investigative journalism, this is feeding the program material until you get a positive to smear. A positive that is bound to happen

I think 99% of American citizens look at somebody like Elon Musk and say, 'if that person wants to come in and build something great in the US, we support that.'

A whistleblower alleged DHS officers used Social Security numbers to illegally access voters' registration files ahead of the midterms. Trumpโs DOJ just confirmed part of it in a new court filing โ but still wonโt say what theyโre doing with the data.
