City Council president says decision is 'extremely short-sighted' 4:28 p.m. - Minneapolis City Council President Elliott Payne, who supports Omar Fateh for mayor, called the news "deeply troubling" and said it will have "reverberations beyond the city election this year." "When the donors don't get the outcome that they want through the party process, they go to a super party process outside of the norm to try to reverse the decision of the delegates," Payne said. "It's an extremely short-sighted thing to do, not just tactically but philosophically," he added. "It basically is turning their backs on the entire concept of this being an inclusive party that is multi generational, multiracial and based on values. Apparently, it's based on money, and you can just buy the outcome you want." - Susan Du

"When the donors don't get the outcome that they want through the party process, they go to a super party process outside of the norm to try to reverse the decision of the delegates," Payne said. "It's an extremely short-sighted thing to do, not just tactically but philosophically," he added.

Just make it exist first. You can make it worse with each new pass while getting increasingly frustrated later.

Is AI really trying to escape human control and blackmail people? Opinion: Theatrical testing scenarios explain why AI models produce alarming outputs—and why we fall for it.

When AI acts up, it doesn't indicate some kind of awakening or rebellion—it's showing symptoms of a poorly understood system, as well as engineering failures we'd recognize as premature deployment in any other context.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

A brown and dog with white nose, neck, paws, and curly tail is wearing a yellow raincoat. They're walking through some puddles on a blue leash, looking a bit concerned. Their brow is creased. Bg is a flat white with blue raindrops.

Day 2: Basenji. I love how concerned these dogs look.
