Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I talked about this piece on the show today but I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to not assume that other people think like you or make decisions for the same reason you do.

As an offshoot of this thread, let’s talk about what happens if federal, state, or local officials text, email, call, or show up at your door wanting to talk to you about what you said about the President.
I have a theme, a thesis, a throughline, a leitmotif, which is SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH.

I saw New Jack City in the theater with my folks at age 10. I thought it was a gangster movie, like The Godfather.

I think @chrislhayes.bsky.social said something recently on how Americans, very broadly, are relatively right-of-center and people got very annoyed with him because they operate under Most Americans Agree With Me Theory
