Here is an AI trained just using text from 1931 or earlier, which leads to a lot of interesting experiments: can the model independently develop later inventions? Can it learn to code from examples alone? You can talk to the model here:

Update: the Tennessee House passed HB 754, which will create a public list of trans residents, by a party-line vote of 70-21 this morning. Shortly before its passage, Republicans, again on party lines, rejected Democrats' attempt to remove the provisions that collect and publish trans people's data.

4. Finally, this sensitive data will be released to the public as part of a ācomprehensive annual statistical report,ā posing a risk to the privacy and safety of trans Tennesseans. HB 754 is quite possibly the most dangerous anti-trans bill proposed so far. It must be defeated before itās too late.

3. All four of these things are considered to be āindividually identifiableā information under HIPAA, as they are specific enough to allow a a personās identity to be discerned. As such, it will essentially allow the state to create a list of trans Tennesseans, exposing them to state surveillance.

2. The information HB 754 would collect includes the date of a trans personās gender-affirming care appointment, the personās county of residence, the name and contact information of their healthcare provider, and a list of all the mental health diagnoses they have ever received.

1. Yesterday, Tennessee Republicans advanced a bill that will create a public list of the stateās trans people. HB 754 forces medical providers to hand trans peopleās medical information over to the state government, allowing the state to identify them.

The UK just proposed new school guidance that effectively bans even social transition for trans students (using a different name, pronoun or haircut). It implements a full bathroom ban while requiring mandatory outing of trans youth if a teacher suspects they are trans.

Gelernter endorsed Trump 3 times. He's an evolution and climate change skeptic who thinks women should stay home. He was a member of the "race science" Human Biodiversity Inst. After an unflattering profile in the WP, The Atlantic published an indignant piece calling him a "pioneering polymath."
