Yes, the reason I don’t want to take a train downtown to stand in a crowd and buy things for 30% more than I could get them somewhere else is because of all the murder.
Call in the troops to solve the commercial real estate crisis in our swanky downtown cores

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

So,
1) The Kirk tweet I was criticizing was about Mamdani, not me. But sure, we Muslims look all the same, right?
2) He spells my name wrong.
3) Kirk's murder was bad, that doesn't make his Islamophobia good.
4) Does the VP really have nothing to do all day except... quote-tweet at people like me?

This is an especially stupid argument when the president is a product of the electoral college and not a direct vote of the people.
in vought's view, the president is a living embodiment of the "will of the people" and congress has no legitimate power to limit him

I mean if this shit just flies, if the democrats have any spine they could just take the military budget and pay off student loans.
Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine
