The original large language model. This is not financial advice. It’s not even good advice. I am not an expert on anything. You probably shouldn’t listen to me.

Amazing art, no doubt. The +10 Trump vote in 2024, is more to the “no” I was snarking about: “voters age 45–64 gave Trump a ten-point margin, 54 percent to 44 percent, with Trump carrying forty-somethings 50 percent to 48 percent and 50- to 64-year-olds by a whopping 56 percent to 43 percent.”

I see what you are saying but I don’t think it has to go that far. A robot that looks generally like me could field request for me to do things I need done that a design committee didn’t think of beforehand.

If you want to make the argument that his opponents were uniquely bad, do that, but Mamdani's margin over Cuomo was nearly nine points. If you add Cuomo, Sliwa and Adams together, Mamdani still wins. And the Mandani-Cuomo split was in large parts an internecine struggle (that's what elections are).
