I hate these charts so much because they imply chatgpt is comparable to the internet or phones

You could create the same graphic for full screen pop-up advertising on websites and make them look like ultra-rapid technology adoption when really they were just baked unavoidably into the internet
In 2025, AI became pervasive in American life and the economy, with ChatGPT surging in adoption much faster than any other major technology in memory. @nytopinion.nytimes.com

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Yes, I know NYT played the story prominently on its homepage for a while yesterday. But its print play is a more deliberate sign of what it thinks is important. This is a 5-alarm fire, with a racist criminal running the country. Responsible news orgs need to act like that's a huge problem. 2/🧵

The Trump Administration has turned the NEH into a slush fund for the president’s political agenda — and the communities across this country that rely on fair, competitive grants are the ones paying the price.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.

Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.
