I wondered the same thing. It's relevant that she's a DO as opposed to MD. Not that DO automatically equals quack, but there does seem to be a higher degree of quackery among osteopathic physicians compared to MDs.

Yeah, I took a look at the code they used in the article that might help someone generate functional attacks. A rando experimenting without permission would likely get banned from the service.
I know, she was claiming people had metal objects sticking to their bodies as an adverse vaccine reaction. This is a common magic trick any of us could do using a combination of sticky/clammy skin and an altered center of gravity. I was just pointing out that magnetic fields are used therapeutically and don't have a high degree of associated risk, making her claims that much more absurd.
What's funny is that magnetizing people is actually a good thing and can help cure mental illnesses like depression.
I just tried this on ChatGPT, it doesn't work.
Most people seem to be trying to pass off AI creations as their own judging by the exponential flood of AI trash websites, videos, books, news, etc. I've encountered people delusional enough to believe it really is their own artwork because they supplied the text prompt to Stable Diffusion. There's a long way to go before we see transparency.
I wouldn't even know how to begin holding people to transparency here. It's nice that it tends to be obvious when something is AI generated, but I'm sure the clock is ticking to the day no one can tell the difference.
but there's guys out there
Guys, you say? Don't worry, it's just major publications like National Geographic firing off all their writers, tech companies downsizing in the hopes that ChatGPT will code for free, a plague of nonsensical AI written books flooding the market under legitimate authors' names, and all of Hollywood hoping their writers will work for pennies out of desperation for food and shelter.
It doesn't matter that ChatGPT constantly gives wrong answers and has about as much personality as a bran muffin. With the dawn of AI, us humans don't need humans anymore.
I hadn't heard this so I did a search to see what you were talking about. One of the first things that comes up is a quote from this guy whining that he doesn't trust Wikipedia anymore because they don't allow Daily Mail or Fox News as sources of reliable information. You know, the gossip rag Daily Mail that posts anything "sources say" for clicks, and the same Fox News that was found to be flat out lying to its viewers on a number of sociopolitical issues. What a putz.
It's so ironic because we even have an inferno planet next door with a runaway greenhouse effect that everyone can use as an example. With an average surface temperature of 464 degrees, Venus got through to me as a small child. But knowing the type of ignorant person we're talking about, Venus would just be held as further "proof" that Earth's climate change isn't caused by human activity.
I agree there were so many screw-ups in the response, especially in the early days. China insisting upon secrecy until it spread across the globe, the WHO's confusing statements on the efficacy of masks in order to preserve supplies for the front lines, the ridiculous pro-masker vs anti-masker mentality, the Trump fiasco where he suggested doctors use lemon fresh Lysol or whatever the hell he was on about to disinfect people's lungs as if he has a goddamed clue, the alt-right losing their minds over a dangerous vaccine with Bill Gates computer chips in it, etc.
But remember CFCs and the hole in the ozone layer? Scientists were like "Hey, guys. There's a hole here. We need to stop using this crap or we dead." And everyone banded together and stopped using CFCs, and the hole in the ozone layer closed happily ever after. Sometimes we can actually do it right. I don't know, maybe it'll take a crisis like losing Florida to the ocean for Americans to collectively give a shit again and start doing things right. Or maybe we'll all die before we get a chance to see that happen.
Not the one with the complaint, but I can see their point. Decapitations during birth happen around the world several times a year, with only some of those cases ever going to the news. When they do hit the news, they spread quickly because of the shock factor. Yet the general public may come away from this not realizing it's is far from the first time and won't be the last.
I'd say this would make a great world news article if some of the prior cases from across the world were also mentioned, and the bigger issue of women being dismissed by their doctors was prominently referenced with supporting studies.
