Ok all sarcasm aside, what these white supremacists are really talking about is when they are asked to apologize for doing racist things. Which happens. Because racism is something to apologize for. What they are saying is that no one should have to apologize for racist actions or statements.

More training wouldn't have helped: The problem is the output is philosophical bullshit, it sounds good but isn't necessarily correct. And if you want to study the textbook is RIGHT THERE and what the LLM was trained on in the first place. Especially for security, precision and preciseness matter.

Bullshit (rhetorically). I've had an LLM trained up on MY COURSE material by someone promoting ed-tech chatbots (its all free licensed), and I evaluated it for student facing work. The output SOUNDED right but was subtly wrong in places, in ways a student wouldn't notice. But which matter!

Ahem

This shit should be on every news broadcast, every campaign ad, and every newspaper in the country. It won’t, because we are fundamentally broken as a nation, but it should

I wrote this a year ago and it hit a nerve. It is still relevant today: Each time I have sat down to write something I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I cannot get out of my head. So, this week I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has concluded "regular forces" means the military, and has therefore ruled that Trump does NOT have authority to deploy the National Guard under §12406. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

OMG, someone let Jacob Savage know so he can revise his Compact article!

Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

BREAKING: Here’s the 60 Minutes Segment Trump and CBS News Executives Don’t Want You to See Video (no paywall): bit.ly/4qn6Jn5

iCloud, Mega, and as a torrent. Archivists have uploaded the 60 Minutes episode Bari Weiss spiked.

Exactly. Really demonstrates what "neutral" and "fair" means to Trump/Weiss/Ellison (i.e. right-wing bootlicking) bsky.app/profile/rmac...

This is the funniest and most embarrassing possible outcome for Bari. People are going to get to see a totally normal news piece that clearly isn't biased against Trump and think, "She was afraid that THIS would upset the administration??"

call us old fashioned but, if you've built a machine that makes child porn, we really don't care if can do anything else. unplug the machine.

If you haven’t yet, it’s time to cancel Paramount plus. The owners are pure evil. Make them feel the pain Disney felt when they tried to fire Jimmy Kimmel.

“Donald Trump likes to use a big number to anchor his point, especially when he wanders off on a tangent,” Marie-Rose Sheinerman reports. “Often it seems that a specific figure is on the tip of his tongue.”

Elusive street artist Banksy appeared to confirm Monday that a new mural in London, depicting two children lying down and pointing up at the sky, is his latest work. https://to.pbs.org/496w5im

Email that Sharyn Alfonsi sent her about CBS (aka Bari Weiss) pulling their segment on the Trump admin’s (illegal) deportations of Venezuelan migrants (CECOT)

This is also a way to flaunt his protection from the law, by law enforcement. This says the OPP works for me, plebs.

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense

Yeah true, but in this case (the AHA report was about gAI in history education) the last thing I would do is teach students it’s acceptable to skip key cognitive and intellectual steps in the process of building a research project or idea by using an LLM summary.

When I was researching whether it was OK for humans to eat rocks, the initial AI inquiry into survey material concluded that people should be ingesting at least a single serving of pebbles, geodes, or gravel with breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Okay so she just killed a story investigating the concentration camp in a banana republic Trump is sending American residents to

yup, this is Kimmel redux and thrusts the takeover of CBS into a glaring public spotlight larger than any it’s already faced it’s a stupid move by a stupid person

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didn’t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.

This headline is so funny. "How she did it" was being a screenwriter, already working in the industry, who had contacts who recommended her for the job. She's not some random fan who was plucked from obscurity to become a showrunner through the strength of her online posting or fandom.

chatterton doesn't really post here but i would love his thoughts on of his most famous episodes given today's events.

Trump's in the Epstein files over 600 times.

The thing about censorship — I say this as someone with experience living under authoritarianism — is that it’s rarely overt. The state cracks down when people flirt with the line & then folks maintain it. This 60 minutes cancellation of the episode on CECOT sent chills down my spine.

What once was largely limited to Stormfront and the fever swamps of the internet just a few years ago is now accepted discourse from the White House.

Indonesia is seeking to plug an unusually deep revenue shortfall before year-end by scrutinizing wealthy individuals and big businesses for extra tax payments.

It basically impossible for me to accept that they honestly decided it “needed more reporting” literally 2 hours before it was set to air. The only thing that makes any sense is interference from ownership/management.

nothing i can say about these people is crueler than their behavior toward each other

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now. It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

"effectively unprecedented"

#AEWDynamite on 34th Street 6/5c, TBS + HBO Max Christmas Eve, 12/24 Continental Classic Blue League Roderick Strong vs Máscara Dorada Dorada had one of the greatest upsets in the 2025 C2. He still has a chance to lead in points, but has to get through Strong, CHRISTMAS EVE!

White people put that man in office gtfo out my face Even with the swing of minorities towards him? He wouldn't have won He is in office because white people fuxking willed it so

Sounds like they're trying to Bari the story.

I mean let's do basic numbers Black people in America? 13% of the population? Voting age? Allowed to vote? Actually voted????? And then voted gop????????? Yall are blaming 1% of the black population for a choice that white the majority of white Americans collectively made??

After ICE barred her from a detention hotspot in Manhattan immigration court, @velazquez.house.gov told me, "I stayed there listening to some bullshit." A judge later ruled ICE was out of bounds for preventing members of Congress from visiting these facilities talkingpointsmemo.com/feature/how-...

From the loud applause I'm guessing the audience is.....

Thought they’ll gladly ship your money off to Venezuela but only to kill fishermen and the occasional cocaine dealer
