To put it in terms these bros will have AI explain to them, it involves fallacies such as appeal to authority and argument from incredulity. You’re assuming that the people who created the algorithms were competent to do so and refuse to accept a reality in which this isn’t needed or wanted

This is a good illustration of how so much of AI theft isn't indirect (ie, data sucked into a model to train the chatbot) - it's actually **direct** copying, but *enabled* by GenAI. Of course it is: chatbots absolutely suck at creating good, new stuff.

And where’s all the talk and outrage for this woman? Kendall was raped and a university found her rapist guilty, but he’s still playing sports because we know how people are about sports. Tbh, it’s one reason I don’t like them. Being an athletic man often means you aren’t held accountable because

As Indigenous People’s Day approaches I want to lovingly offer the practice that those of us who are salaried & get holidays off donate at least a portion of that paid day of day’s wages to the communities & causes we’re meant to be centering on i.e. Indigenous People’s Day and Juneteenth.

Seriously, please don't be too shy or polite to ask for ICE whistles if you need them, especially in SoCal. A bunch of us have stockpiles all ready to go in case of surges, if you have the ability to pass them out, we have the whistles!

People in California who are facing a terrible ICE surge: remember that if you need whistles, we are still sending them out for free. In fact, we just passed 1.7 million whistles sent out. linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

Friends. Today was a great day in terms of playing soccer, giving a kicking lesson, and doing a campaign event with Robert Garcia, but I have to tell you the cherry on top was seeing this Republican text ad whimpering about our campaign’s efforts to shine a light on my extremist opponent.

Women trying to succeed in Silicon Valley AI and effective altruist spaces are reporting feeling serious social pressure to attend sex parties - where people have reported being sexually assaulted, like below. Events like Aella’s “Slutcon,” which is happening again this weekend.

We need to start framing this as “how many men and boys do I know who have done this” rather than “how may people do I know who’ve had this happen to them”

It's a sad fucking reality that almost every woman you know has been inappropriately touched assaulted

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

Exactly. Oh well!! Wish in one hand and sh*t in the other, hateful dinguses. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

A Kash Patel theory I’ve had for awhile is that he’s actually experiencing the same thing as Tom Hanks’ character in Big. He is a 12 yr old boy trapped in the FBI director’s body. He talks about everything like it’s a book report on a book he didn’t read.
