But if I was her, I’d sing like a songbird for any reasonable plea bargaining.

Umm... ok not a huge expert on how the courts work... but is who she'd be bargaining with be under trumps control?, again not really sure the logistics... but if it's all federal employees under trumps control... couldn't they be saying "we'll go as light as humanly possible, but if you rat out trump... we'll hit you with everything the law allows".

I mean come on and do it, what do you have to lose at this point. You clinging to the hope that maybe the US and Isreal might chose not to go to war with you?

Simple concept of nationalization/globalization. Honestly I would say records or whatever the first tool of pre-recorded music distribution came out that the game changed. IE if we want music somewhere... 99% of the time, hiring live musicians is a pretty silly excess, and well if you are using pre-recorded music, your local band needs to go toe to toe against big record labels... which have highly talented artists, the best marketing and production resources in the world, data driven approaches to attempt to pick the most likely to appeal to the broadest group of people possible etc...

When it does come to live music... Generally speaking the people that do want it, are relatively low budget. If say you are running a bar, how much extra money would you anticipate live music from a relatively unknown band would bring you in a night. Most likely not much if any. On top of that a lot of people enjoy doing music, and there's just more musicians with pretty good talent, but lack of demand in places for them to go.

6 year olds with leukemia?

Yeah... in short he was in the primaries, actually had a pretty strong following, mainly because he proposed UBI. Then after losing he started a "forward" party... which as far as I can see was meant to be kind of a centrist party, but effectively didn't have any stances besides work towards ranked choice voting.

I mean, I'd imagine probably not a good one :) Somehow I imagine asking the AI to record a conversation, is an instant arguement escalator... as is asking to read the facts back, and usually the topic would be switched rather than one side admitting their fault in the conversation.

Actually I think there's a black mirror episode on roughly that (not a device for recording audio when asked, but everyone having a chip in their head that automatically records their memories, and a huge fight when a husband discovers his wife deleted a few hours of recordings.

half sarcastic but the overall premise of rigging something in to a local voice assistant, when an arguement starts "Ok nabu record this conversation". then 2 weeks later on another arguement... "OK nabu search our last arguement for the cabinet". Would be like having a court transcriber on call.

Actually more relevant now, considering the ending

"Go to the site where Nazi's scream at you". It's talking about moving from facebook to twitter.

No actually origionally it was fed the internet... and elon was getting fed up with it correctly fact checking him.

IE the genisis of this change was, musk accusing the left of being violent. Followed by someone asking grok whether the left or right had commited was more violent.

Grok responded basically pointing out that there were far more incidents of right wing inspired violence, and the majority of left wing incidents only damaged property.

Musk responded that that is incorrect and he'll fix it.

And now he made the update and explicitly turned grok into a nazi.

They trained it to praise hitler, intentionally. They didn’t remove any guardrails. Not that Musk acolytes would know any different.

I'm actually currious, some of the answers they noted it spoke as if it was musk...

What if that's what the instruction was. "Answer all from the perspective that you ARE elon musk, be unfiltered, no woke answers", and thus the AI interpreted that to mean... be like Elon Musk, but don't worry about keeping some plausible deniability on if you are a nazi.

and it's still a better system than anyone hired by RFK Jr manually reviewing the file.

Which is kind of the point, idea fully agreed there's a lot of risks and messed up stuff, but almost all of it, is at worse roughly equal to the already existing problems in our systems... I can't quite think of any that are made worse.

I'm assuming it's reffering to the fact that, there already is some level of facism around... stop and frisk certainly got some protests, but not exactly perfect.
