Time to dump ChatGPT!

The latest model of ChatGPT has begun to cite Elon Musk’s Grokipedia as a source on a wide range of queries, including on Iranian conglomerates and Holocaust deniers, raising concerns about misinformation on the platform.

Today’s Vision Card is the Nine of Wands.
You’ve been through a lot, and the weariness is real. Pause if you need to — but don’t give up the ground you’ve earned. Resilience isn’t loud; it’s choosing to stay.

This is important to us because what’s happening right now in Congress could permanently change protections for a beloved wilderness area. With everything else going on, this quietly moved forward while most people weren’t paying attention and it should concern all of us.

This chart by @nathanielbullard.com is one reason data centers are driving up our electricity prices. Tech companies usually build data centers close to cities, where accommodating their GW-scale power demand entails costly reinforcement of wires or transformers. Utilities pass those costs on to us.

Important work here from the NYT. Ross wasn’t run over. He dropped his cell phone, which he had shifted to his left hand to draw his weapon. And then he shot and killed a person with the gun in his right hand.

During the Cold War the United States military had 15,000 soldiers stationed in Greenland. That presence has been reduced by 99% to just 150 soldiers today.

Denmark has given the US exclusive and full military access to Greenland but the US does not use it. This has nothing to do with security.

Where are all the good guys with guns? The people who have spent the last 50 years telling us that we had to make sure every American has a gun in case we needed them to protect ourselves from tyranny?

And where are the stories to point this out (they may be there; I just don't know)?

Maybe AI non-adaptors aren’t falling behind, but are just realistically weighing the technology’s potential benefits and they’re… not much. It’s time people move past the tech world’s PR and begin to examine AI without the presumption that it exists to do good.

That Trump contacted major oil companies and his political donors about the attack on Venezuela and has not met with Congress is a matter of fact.

This is Trump's world of pure corruption for personal gain, and screw the people of the United States, much less the people of Venezuela on display.
