How trustworthy is AI when people can game the system like this? There's no way Parscale is alone in efforts like this.
David RobertsIsrael is giving Trump's former campaign manager millions of dollars to fill the internet with pro-Israel articles written by AI, not so that anyone will actually read them, but so that *LLMs will train on them* & regurgitate their perspective. This is the future of the information environment.
I cannot imagine that being rich or powerful is fun enough that you're willing to debase yourself to do something like this in order to maintain it.
Aaron RuparHannity: "My President, Lindsey probably has a heavenly version of Mar-a-Lago. It may even be a little bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he added one big beautiful ballroom and an arch somewhere on the property. Because he would want to obviously duplicate his dearest friend in life. You."

Jon of The NorthTurns out that food companies were only checking their food because the government told them to, which is exactly why we need government regulations.
More willing to listen to the autocratic dictator of Russia over the entire US intelligence community, because Putin tells him what he wants to hear. The problem isn't just that the POTUS is an idiot, although that's a problem. The larger problem is that he is a terrible self-centered person.
Ron FilipkowskiTell that to the families of the dead American soldiers.
Saying that Miller doesn't care is, imho, too generous. Miller got what he wanted.
Matt OrtegaStephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body. People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.
