as much as i dislike he bizarro/tit-for-tat dynamic, blue states could probably use regulation as a cudgel to severely limit the reach of these suicide factories, like red states have done with abortion

less of a fan of being a fan of a particular artist these days, if that makes sense

magic the gathering card art for "cast into darkness" of a man holding his head screaming

"we don't use your data for training AI, we just feed it to these other bozos who we don't even even provide any input on for the quality of their model or tuning for our site"

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

CA, OR, CO, NV, NM, and WA should do the same with the western governors association

If the National Governors Association chooses to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.

Lot of dumb discourse is downstream of the marketing decision to label a couple of hundred different computer things as "AI" so that your average goober thinks theyre all one thing

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

It should be very very clear to everyone right now that the Attorney General was asked under oath if she possesses pics of the President with undressed teens and she refused to say “no.”
