Twitter undoubtedly affected the 2024 election with AI. We don’t need to look outside the U.S. for election interference, though it sure leaves to door open to anyone with money and bad intentions.

Right after the 2024 election I wondered aloud if this were possible. One expert certainly agreed.

9/ This is reckless climate and economic policy. And magical thinking. Net zero doesn’t happen without reducing fossil fuel supply. At least the US has the cojones to say it doesn’t give a shit about climate. @mark-carney.bsky.social is still pretending that Canada does. FIN
