I kinda think the way people use ChatGPT is sort of aspirational because it seems to emulate the way rich people have sycophants lying to them all the time until they lose touch with reality and also their entire minds

I really appreciate educational content like this that I can send to my non-tech savvy family members in the States to keep them thinking critically about the content they consume on the net.

After watching the last Mission Impossible, I wanted a prequel about how Gabriel recruited his goons "we're going to fight to the death serving an AI from Russia that wants to destroy the world" and how they got their nukes and transport them... All the Impossible logistics.

Trump’s border czar earned consulting fees from immigrant detention firm Tom Homan, a top ICE official, earned an undisclosed amount from a division of the GEO Group, one of two companies that operates the majority of the nation’s immigrant detention facilities.

Border czar Tom Homan, captain of the "zero tolerance" policy that split migrant parents from their kids, was paid money by the private-prison company that profits off detaining immigrants. Drain the swamp www.washingtonpost.com/business/202... @douglasmac.bsky.social @aaronschaffer.com
