I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

This is happening tonight! Come check it out! www.youtube.com/live/Op5OKOY...

13k comments on one tweet is a massive payout. All of the tweets follow a certain formula, so the content is likely automated using AI technology (e.g., AI generated images and text). Basically running it as a money printing machine. But for those in the US, it translates to low simmering rage.

SCOTUS judges can be impeached too if they commit a crime - like lying to congress during confirmation hearings.

theres probably entire offices in India dedicated to this as a full time business. And I bet it isnt just India

latest newspoll... we still prefer inaction and disappointment to an absolute clusterfuck

Okay, so that lighting photo that I thought was a lightning sprite was actually the lens (fuck you lens). However, enjoy some of these other photos of lightning! (alt text - four photos of night time lightning)

Apparently trump was smitten by Zohran Mamdani. Honestly, can't blame him.

You cannot tell me that cats don't use tools. Because clearly my cat thinks I'm an excellent tool.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

There better be Hell to pay. These white nurses are damned near getting away with murder

I love Bluesky. On my feed: A post about how Grok is lying about the Auschwitz gas chambers, then three separate posts by three separate people featuring EXCEPTIONALLY well made art of beautiful women who just happen to have enormous schlongs. I'm not being sarcastic, I like this dichotomy.

"What's that?" "It's Renewable energy, cheap electricity which could save the Planet." "Ho, hum... too expensive." "What's that? It's AI, a way of stealing art, while sucking the electricity grid dry." "Love it, here's 100 billion!"

As a proud snake owner, I find this offensive. They are extremely honest and simple creatures. They want food, hides and warmth. Even though they would outsmart trump, they absolutely are WAAAY too stupid to betray their allies.

things happening on the other site you wouldn’t believe

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika

you put a rainbow on the sidewalk and they go ballistic but now swastikas are chill

Update on me going to Mastermind. I'm still going. Had a conversation with the person who does the research for the subjects people choose. I told her to go to my YouTube channel if she was told she can't do BID, because it's too controversial. They make and give study sheets!

One of the worst things about these apps is that bank transfers are a thing.

Trump calls for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged

If anyone wants something wholesome, I was making an apple pie last week and one of the pips was sprouting. So I decided to plant it. It's growing!

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

Bill Cassidy should be required to have this shit framed and hung where he can see it every time he sits at his desk this is the bargain you made, asshole you knew better and you did this to the rest of us anyway

The first and last defense for crimes against humanity is that humanity itself was a crime

Charlie Kirk was a tool. I mean that literally. He was useful to the American right for organizing and propaganda, then they thought they could use his death to silence and persecute people they don't like, which worked a bit but fizzled, and then he was no longer of use to them so they moved on.

Good morning from Sydney, where we are getting ready for the #AIMOS2025 conference. Jen Beaudry @drjbeaudry.bsky.social (@aimosinc.bsky.social President and Chair) and Joanna Diong (Co-Chair) are welcoming us into the room. aimos-inc.github.io/aimos.confer...

Riding the high of Trump's latest tax cuts, corporations are seeing record profits and will make over $1.1T in stock buybacks this year — an all-time high. Meanwhile, layoffs have totaled 1.1M so far in 2025 — the highest level since the pandemic. "New Golden Age" for whom?

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year. That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined. It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks. It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks. Billionaire greed is out of control.

AOC: Should this AI bubble pop, we should not be entertaining a bailout of these corporations while healthcare is being denied to Americans and SNAP is being denied to Americans —

‘This is what the Lord says: “Before your very eyes, I will take your wives and give them to your friend, and he will sleep with your wives in public, in every conceivable position, using all kinds of toys, all day and night. And the Lord will make you watch!”’ - 2 Samuel 12:11

Well, that was quick.

an important message to elite society in general: this is an unpopular, weak and failing lame duck president and you can just tell him no

Dinner time! We went grocery shopping and now it’s time to not eat all the food I bought. Lol. We’re at Sushi Jet tonight, ordering off the menu because I have zero self-restraint when it comes to AYCE. Forbidden foods here: soy sauce, wasabi, beef, and pork. Oh and no soup or pop.

People are rising up and teaching each other how to resist and fight back, and it’s working. And yeah, we’re seeing a whole lot of stupid ICE agents stumbling around like they own the place. You cannot occupy a city and expect silence. The people who live there always answer back.
