this exists it is called thinking
Matthew McConaughey says he wants a private LLM, fed only with his books, notes, journals, and aspirations, so he can ask it questions and get answers based solely on that information, without any outside influence.

EDDINGTON
First half: what if South Park spoofed Lone Star (1996) (complimentary)
Second half: what if someone gave Uwe Boll $25 million and a good DOP (derogatory)

Say it again, and again, and again. They are not "illegal immigrants".

-seeking asylum is legal and has been since 1951.

This legally trumps all arguments of “but they arrived by illegal means”. That’s just a fact. That’s why you don’t see asylum seekers arrested & charged. Our MSM must do better.
Silencing the drumbeat again: seeking asylum is legal
Hundreds protested in Ashington against so-called "illegal immigrants" - though seeking asylum has been legal since 1951

JAMES BOND (Tom Holland): (into smart watch) Alexa, I need your help! I can’t get into the Amazon fulfillment centre to save the Prime Minister! There’s a large group of pro-union protestors blocking the way!
MILF YOUNGLY (Lauren Sanchez): Perhaps I could be of service, Mr. Bond. I am 24 years old.

"Cleaning up" is a trope. It's like calling people rats or octopuses. Absolutely no place for it in public life; this MP should be losing the whip.

Musk has adjusted Grok’s algorithm so it’s now a neo-Nazi.

Pretty cool that almost every progressive commentator, elected official and organization still uses Musk’s X algorithm to communicate with the public! Good job guys.

„Die ersten Schwarzen kamen bereits mit den Römern. Die große Migration setzte zwar nach 1945 ein, schon vorher aber lebte hier eine Diaspora. Schwarze Geschichte beginnt nicht erst mit Wind­rush.“

Eine Nahaufnahme eines Schwarzen Mannes mit Brille und Hut. Er schaut über die Kamera hinweg, sein Ausdruck ist ernst. Text: „Wir Schwarzen haben England nachhaltig verändert.“ Linton Kwesi Johnson schloss sich als Schüler 1969 den Black Panthers in London an und ist heute Dubpoet. Er findet: Schwarze haben das Leben in England lebenswerter gemacht

What a sad fall from grace. From the incredible Incendies to Bezos-Bond slop. Nolan at least did an incomprehensible backwards Bond. Embarrassing
