    Let's examine one article to see whether or not this site is intellectually honest: ‘You’re the only one I can talk to,’ the girl told an AI chatbot; then she took her own life - b…

    "LLMDeathCount.com" is not trucking with shades of grey.

    Just like SEO ruined search, I expect companies to be running these deep researches, looking carefully at the sources, and ensuring they're poisoned. Hopefully with enough cross-re…

    They're right. Embrace, Extend, Extinguish and Enshittification have been the core experiences of digital life with corporations in charge of platforms. My hope is that LLMs will h…

    Replace 'word generator with no intelligence or understanding based on the contents of the internet' with 'for-profit health care system'. In retrospect, from experience, I'd take …

    There's been a lot of noise about China increasing their influence in the pacific, but now that I follow it up it's more limited than I thought. China has approximately 250 times t…

    Not as corrupt as other countries is true. My rhetoric gets a little passionate, but is rooted in fact. Relative to their extreme wealth and political messaging, will 'very' corrup…

    The Malacca straits will certainly be important, but the US will have to reach past China and Chinese allies to the south to blockade it, and will be sitting ducks for drone and mi…

    Yes, productive capacity can be repurposed to support military goals - with organizations and technicians already in place. Mexico has about 1/17th of the manufacturing capacity of…

    America has very little manufacturing capacity, has lost its edge in batteries and power generation, and is soon to be behind on computing. They're politically fractured, losing al…

    American, please, wake up. The masked border police are on the streets arresting citizens, the military is being paid as a client of the president, corruption is legal, and a mass …

    Significantly easier to detect than create? Not quite NP, but intuitively an AI which can create such an exploit could also detect it. The economics is more about how much the defe…

    I've also thought this for scam perpetration vs mitigation. An AI listening to grandma's call would surely detect most confidence or pig butchering scams (or suggest how to verify)…

    Hilarious. 9/11 was used as a false pretense for invading Iraq, killing millions, for geopolitics and oil. Never let a good crisis go to waste they say

    This post is frankly embarrassing. For civilians, does being warned your life is going to be bombed to ashes soften the explosion?

    Recently scammed out of $800 in fake maintenance claims by a first time host. Support was beyond useless.

    Last month a first time host confabulated $1200 of maintenance charges. Having left the property already, I was in no position to produce evidence that they were fake. Arbitration …

    Serious question: do you expect to have to field questions about buying a car from Musk post-seig heil and DOGE?
