    > We are not going back, period. I didn't get this at all from the parent. They're simply stating that LLMs aren't entirely trustworthy, and that the responsibility is ultimately o…

    This article is from Feb 2023. Pretty neat, but not something new.

    I'm not going to show you but I'll tell you, because I'm hoping you're asking in good faith and not just being snarky. With AI, I now have tools to analyze recorded demos from quak…

    Doesn’t the saying go something like “all politics are local” ?

    > This is really what a lot of people need, a return to learning about something 2-3 weeks after it happens and more details are known. I agree. Aside from emergencies or other tru…

    I’m not sure at all why you’re pointing at a rule established in 2024 and promptly rescinded in 2025 as a way to point out govt. waste.

    This is a profoundly dismissive and even circular take...or at least an intentional misrepresentation of what I said. When I say personnel constraints, I mean there are almost not …

    My spouse works in the DOI and while there maybe some inefficiencies, particularly in process, it isn't the people themselves which are the problem. Her group operates on razor-thi…

    We had a significant reduction in government workforce during the Clinton administration. The stark difference is that THAT effort was handled with careful planning and through the…

    I’m not sure it would be legal for them to remove something they actually advertise as a feature to sell the car. Also I’m sure they’d be hit with a class-action lawsuit immediatel…

    Auto manufacturers aren’t likely to provide updates over the long term. Imagine if your ten year old car hasn’t seen an infotainment update in four+ years. Or if you want to buy us…

    I haven't used superpowers yet, but it seems a major focus of this release was to reduce clocktime as well as token spend. From TFA (well, blog): > The long and the short of it it …

    Probably. But it would be at least somewhat thought-out and apply to all the AI providers. Not just the one currently disfavored by Captain Dipshit and the Sycophants. I really don…

    At my core, I do believe it's a good thing, so don't try to frame things as if I'm ethically opposed to the overarching idea here. It's that the powers-that-be have and always will…

    No, this really hasn't always been the case. At least not in the sense it is today. 20 years ago your misinformation came from television, radio, and print. All of those things wer…
