A friend perfectly summed up why legacy media is unequipped to adequately report on this moment/era in history:

you have to be fluent in online culture to understand the modern right wing. you have to be extremely online to get it. you need an understanding of what gamergate is. you have to know 4chan. boomers don't get this, no legacy media sources get this, the average trump voter doesn't even get it. these people are on the fringe, but they have infiltrated the government. unfortunately, understanding the grossest underbelly of the internet is now crucial to fully understanding the current moment & the guys at the center of it all. this is literally the stupidest moment in history.

I HATE when people compare AI to the printing press, it's so disingenuous. The printing press was opposed by the elites because it put power in the hands of everyday people, and popularized a vernacular. AI does the opposite, by allowing elites to bypass artists and laborers.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Kennedy’s the fifth dentist in those commercials where it’s like “four out of five dentists say you should brush your teeth” and if they cut to the fifth dentist it’d be RFK Jr, tweaking out on Zyn patches and roadkill, licking his rotten teeth and telling you “toothpaste is how they autism you.”

NPR @npr.org · Sep 4

Democratic lawmakers and more than a thousand current and former HHS staff say Kennedy's actions are endangering America's health. Kennedy says he came to clean house and he's delivering.

you really cannot be surprised that a lot of people are turning into hardcore AI haters when they're subjected to a constant barrage of examples of America's worst people using it in incredibly stupid ways to ruin the world

Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "I'm working every day on using AI to figure out how to cure cancer or launch fusion energy or understand dark matter. Our Defense Department is trying to figure out how to keep America safe. God bless the First Lady. She of course is wiser than all of us."

He has filled the most powerful vaccine advisory board at CDC with sycophants.

He has placed a man who is opposed to COVID19 vaccines in charge of their approvals at FDA

Their hands are tied, and they correctly refuse to “just follow orders”.

He is manipulating data and making absolutely horrific decisions without consulting some of the best experts in the world.

They have no recourse. If you wish to rage at someone, may I suggest any Republican Senator. 2/3

Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have “stayed and fought”,

With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr.

He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3

He probably doesn't need the app to know but then again he has been pretty oblivious to this sort of thing in the past. Well, he won't hear anything from me. 🤐
