Just the facts, ma`am...

#OpenAI launched a tool to ID AI-generated text. BUT it will yield a false positives and negatives. "In one example, given the first lines of the Book of Genesis, the software concluded that it was likely to be AI-generated. God, the first AI. "

A #trust tech designed to make another trust tech trustworthy turns out to be untrustworthy crating distrust in both itself & its target. but that's good. anything which make people distrust AI is fundamentally good.

David Kurtz reports that the lazy, biased “Democrats in disarray” meme has now gotten so much ridicule that journalists are shifting to a new meme: “Democrats worry …”

What that vague concept really means is anyone's guess.

And anyone else notice that even when the Republicans actually ARE in disarray, there's never any sneering in the media about that. What's that about, I wonder?

GOP racism against darker-skinned Hispanic people obscures to most Americans how much the GOP platform is designed to make the USA run more like Mexico - poorer, less equal, more corrupt.

RT @gabrielarana
The infrastructure in Texas and operation of the government often remind me of Mexico—basic government services inoperable, rampant corruption in administration and lots of cutting corners that leads to disaster later. 1/3

The US government has a long and sordid history of using "terrorism enhancements" to target #environmental justice protesters, #antifascist activists, #Blackliberation organizers, etc

Every #civilliberties org should condemn this. We @team do, unequivocally.

“Sometimes, politics feels like a reality show. When it does, it’s important to remember that it is, and that on any given day, it’s the dumbest one on TV — by far.”

"Opening up your platform using a free public API, inviting developers to build your platform for free, and then begin shutting down and charging for the API once you have the growth that you need is a pretty proven playbook."

Have to say I'm encouraged how even after Republicans cheering on a year of Putin's systematic raping and pillaging, most Americans still recognize evil.
