remember when qanon was a niche conspiracy
SCOOP — Gregg Phillips, a conspiracy theorist with no emergency management experience who helped produce the election-denying documentary ‘2000 Mules’ with Dinesh D’Souza and has faced numerous legal inquiries, has been named head of FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery.

being in any way impressed by hanania or seeing him as a voice worth hearing is definitive evidence that your brain is a perfect sphere
it’s been pretty funny to see Polis’ addiction to posting completely end any discussion of him as a potential 2028 candidate

this fucking study is haunting me like a ghost. eeg is not a BRAIN SCAN and ai use isnt causing BRAIN ATTOPHY. different brain regions are being used bc "using ai to write" and "writing" are different tasks that result in diggerent patterns of behaviour/memory.
“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.
Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

Trump: "They had restrictions on water. It comes down from heaven. You want to wash your hands, or like me, you wash your hair. I lather up. There's no water. I won't mention the 3rd item in the bc I always get criticized. If you don't know what I'm talking about you shouldn't be owning a McDonalds"

interesting that these guys always see other humans as just collections of empty gestures. there's no way for an ai to know what your mom did while she was pregnant. a magic 8-ball wearing your mother's skin.

ah the ol researcher-practioner gap. this is like 70% because of publishers btw. cant get new ciricula without pissing off the publishing company.

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

Look. It would be great if there was one simple trick for winning elections. But 'just be more moderate' isn't it.
In fact, you can use the NYT's exact method to 'prove' a 'Progressive Advantage' of +1.4 pts.
This piece shows what's really going on: funded candidates do better than unfunded ones.

this is quite interesting to me. gen ai is very very good at getting the "gist" information, but completely fails at individual details. it is plausible to me that a lot of people perceive media the same way (relying on gist perception, not individual items) (like global vs. local processing)
