Talking to an LLM is like talking to an actor: it’s trained to give realistic-looking responses. You ask a question thinking you’re talking to Dr House but it’s really Hugh Laurie doing improv, and he’s not going to respond with “I don’t know, I’m not a doctor” because that would be terrible improv.

The modal British voter thinks that pensioners are the group who gets the least good deal from the state! You can't have a serious conversation either about shrinking the state or expanding the tax base from that starting point!

Excellent, as always

Brexit certainly does feel like a Promethean punishment

Ryan Bourne article in Times interesting - first real admission by a Quitter I have seen that admits Brexit has hurt

We Brexiteers must acknowledge the costs of leaving Europe
Breaking free from the EU has undoubtedly deepened the UK’s malaise, and it’s no use denying it
