Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...

The sheer number of Silicon Valley tech families I know who would immediately sign up lol. Nobody enforces no screens as much as that crowd. I regularly get death stares because I park my kid with Miss Rachel when he gets restive in restaurants lol.
The first school to market itself as AI free is going to corner the market on people interested in actually learning. And I would not be surprised if rich families and the children of people creating this tech were the first movers.
My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.

This is a massive win for libraries & communities in every state & territory!

Religion note: Remember that pastor who was arrested protesting an ICE detention facility outside Chicago recently? The one who was photographed on the ground as officers arrested him?

That's Rev. Michael Woolf, and this is his church.

There’s that, plus the fact that no decent human being hoards enough wealth to become a billionaire. They’re antisocial scum by definition. Yes, all billionaires.
I think part of What's Going On with billionaires is that the daily friction of interacting with normal people is part of what anchors people to the real world, and once you have enough money to buy your way out of the friction you can knock down a load-bearing column propping up your sanity.

i think constantly occupying your mind with mistrust of others does more to damage the social contract than whether or not someone is "getting away with" pretending to be disabled

your kind of suspicion (is that really a service dog) has routinely impacted actual disabled people with service animals. I have a seizure alert dog who does not look like a service dog (a lab or shepherd) and have routinely experienced suspicion and distress as a consequence.
My case would be that it’s enough that you’re regularly seeing it (ie people with their dogs in the store/on planes), and that it going unchecked is damaging to the proverbial social contract.

Imagine being a goy and standing up and telling Jewish people they don’t know or understand their own fucking history. That Jews are ignorant and too uneducated to have correct opinions about the Jewish issue of our time that has broken families and communities. You absolute piece of trash.
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

We keep doing these pilot programs and are shocked, SHOCKED!, by the incredibly positive results each time. At what point can we just, ya know, stop with the pilots and make this policy already??? #ubi
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

"I, too, was failed for telling my music professor that Beethoven was clearly demonically possessed and a man of ill morals and that I refuse to listen to his music or write papers about it. The religious discrimination at this music school is intolerable!"
Guys, I'm devastated. We had to react to a paper about how to carbon date remains in paleontology class, and I was failed just for replying that fossils were placed there to test our faith in christ Jesus. What did I do wrong? Will this religious discrimination never end???
