It is usable if you check every cite and every quote. The rebuttable presumption is that they are erroneous until verified by the attorney.

I have no idea about consciousness. But anyone who says Claude’s abilities are “hype” has either (a) not used Claude or (b) does not know how to use Claude.

There is no chance that the U.S. is going to invade with ground troops. Zero.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Provide proper context to the AI first (for example, attach files to a project in Claude); then check all cites after.

The notion that you can lob some bombs into Iran for a few days and get “regime change” is absurd.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

“Raises serious legal and constitutional concerns”? It’s illegal and unconstitutional, full stop.

Most people have their heads in the sand about how powerful this technology. What people should be doing is learning to use it effectively.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

In an administration filled with snakes and rats, Miller is the worst of the bunch.

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

Until Miller’s gone these are just gestural purges to sanitize and consolidate his reign of terror.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

2. organized, not individual ofcrs losing it
3. literally at hand of federal government, which is
4. immediately lying & circling the wagons to prevent inves.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.
