I still get threats from men I wrote about a decade ago who are angry I covered federal lawsuits against them related to sexual assault allegations. To my personal email, to new work emails. I donāt think readers understand how difficult and laborious it is to get these stories published

Something to remember is that it took more than a year for Ronan Farrow to write the Harvey Weinstein story, and itās not because he was lazy.

even the chat window is an intentional choice. there are other ways to interact with an LLM besides that format. but thats the only format that gives the illusion of human-like cognition

The use of āhallucinateā is a stroke of true evil genius in the AI world. In ANY other context weād just call them errors & the fail rate would be crystal clear. Instead, āhallucinateā implies genuine sentience & the *absence* of real error. Aw, this software isnāt shit! Booās just dreaming!

I understand that the general bluesky view of this stuff is "lol anthropic press release" but finding new exploits is something I actually think is right in the wheelhouse of LLMs because a lot of exploit finding is poking at things with a stick for hours and LLMs never get tired

"If you remove him you get Vance." You're familiar with Donald J Trump's foreign policy where we remove a country's leaders one by one until we get to one we can do business with? No reason impeachment can't work the same way

If the wealthy can get you thinking about who deserves basic needs and who doesn't, they win. They don't care if you think wealthy people are the ones who don't deserve; establishing that it must be earned is the key. With that done, they can just keep expanding the definition of "undeserving."

President Trump threatened to obliterate every power station and bridge in a country of 90 million people on Tuesday night in prime time and basically no one is bothering to even ask him how that is not a āwarā that would require authorization from Congress under Article I of the Constitution.

As November Kelly has pointed out, the weirdest thing about Trumpismo is how the man seethes and rails against a game that is thoroughly rigged in America's favor, because he resents having to pretend to play the game *at all*:

Everyone needs to just keep repeating this, over and over. The politics of a case is NOT JUST ABOUT THAT CASE. There is a meta-game here too. This case is surely going to be used as cover for gutting the VRA. And too many pundits are going to fall for it.

We're a diverse species, cognitively speaking - different ways of thinking come more easily to some than others. I'm good at lots of things, but I have *terrible* spatial sense. I can't parallel park or catch a ball. I get lost so easily it's almost comical (it's a running joke in my family). 1/
