we should not be letting any company get away with blaming AI for their failures. I'm not even sure how we got to this point. people are like "it's just a tool" okay so is a forklift and we still hold somebody responsible when it goes wrong and hurts someone. this is YOUR AI!

SEVERE CW: self-harm, suicide

If anyone ever tries to tell you LLMs and chatbots should be abided because they're "inevitable" or "what people want", consider sending them this. They cannot be "fixed", and even if they could the companies that make them won't do it.

IRS Direct File dies a sad, quick death after only a brief time among the living.

Why? It's not because it's a bad idea or that it didn't work.

It's because TurboTax's parent company spent decades trying to make sure they controlled the e-filing market:

I am so upset.

Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/
To be asked to write about racism only to be racially aggressed in the editing process is a new level unlocked I have to say.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."

We finally have the listing from the police for Malaya, so I'm resharing with their juvenile unit number if you have any information or have seen her. She's been missing for 10 days.
