this is the dumbest idea I've ever heard and an absolute disservice to the incredible journalists still at The Washington Post
The Washington Post is launching a personalized AI podcast, saying users will be able to "shape their own briefing, select their topics, set their lengths, pick their hosts and soon even ask questions using our Ask The Post AI technology."

I haven't cared about him since his racist rant about driving around looking for a Black person to harm because someone he knew had been sexually assaulted.

THAT should've been career ending.
SCOOP: Academy Award-nominee Liam Neeson narrated a recent anti-vaccine documentary that glorifies RFK Jr.’s rise to power.

In the film, Neeson—a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador—calls the COVID-19 vaccines “dangerous experiments.”

borrowing my mom’s smart car for a bit, and i so wish these were still on the market. a little two seater with room for a couple bags of groceries is all the car most people need. (although whoever decides which roads get repaved when should have to drive every road in the city in one of these)

victim blaming is never ok, whether it’s a financial or physical crime.
One of the reasons these scams persist is because victims feel guilty about falling for them, so I don't want to hear any "lol this is so obvious" stuff. These emails are written in perfect english and something approximating my voice. As far as I know it hasn't worked yet but no shame if it did!

“Today you look very green even for a frog,” said Toad. “Get into my bed and rest.”

Toad made Frog a cup of hot tea. Frog drank the tea, and then he said, “Tell me a story while I am resting.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene horse traded her vote on the NDAA for a floor vote for a felony ban on gender affirming care for trans youth that would criminalize parents and doctors for providing evidence based lifesaving care for their children.

This is one of the many reasons I hate AI: It diminishes our emotional reactions to the REAL interesting/beautiful/horrifying/amusing things all around us. The real world is an amazing place and AI is the opposite of amazing.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies.

This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week.

This is almost everything the government is doing.

And, if you are a non-US citizen who did this work, you and your entire family will be banned from the United States. (I know this is incredible, but read the order—that’s what it says!)
If you were a tech company employee who moderated content overseas — say, trying to prevent a repeat of the Myanmar genocide! or maybe policing CSAM! Or hate speech illegal in your country! — you are a “censor” under the definitions of the Republicans in power.
