I think it happens often enough when someone rich and/or famous becomes disabled or has a disabled kid. See the whole world of alternative treatments for autism.

With a touch of, and maybe I'm being mean, "this particular bad thing shouldn't happen to someone like me! it must be that no one else tried hard enough to fix it till now"

I thought it was particularly telling that he says someone else in the "metabolic health" world warned him not to be mean about RFK. Take that as a sign that you're in kooksville!

It's very "should RFK Jr become a completely different person to the person he is and has been for years, he could really do some great stuff"

Please sneer at this article. I thought it was pissweak myself.

Edit: "Hear me out: RFK Jr could be a transformational health secretary"

Will a Republican-controlled Congress allow for more government regulation – even if it saves lives?

No. Next question.

We're going to be answering two essay questions in an in-class test instead of writing a paper this year specifically to prevent chat gpt abuse. Which he laughed and joked about because he really believes chat gpt can produce good results !

It was there and gone fairly quickly and I wouldn't say I'm a model student so I didn't say anything. I've talked to him about Chat GPT before though...

He's using it to give examples of exam question answers. The embarrassment

I hope it's just a stunt. If they're serious the US could be in (even more) trouble

I somehow hate these losers more for trying to have their cake and eat it.

From the Small Mercies desk: remember Simone Collins was running for office in Pennsylvania? Well, she lost her campaign. Here's a piece about her from the Inquirer.

 

"Total demand for electricity last year grew by 4.4pc, or 1.3 terawatts (TW), but 80pc of that increase, or 1.1TW, was from data centre growth."

Training data for LLMs = higher energy prices and environmental degradation.

 

A video interview with the artist John Wild about AI, AGI, eugenics and Silicon Valley TESCREAL cultism. Posting without watching.

 

"AI for dummies" interview from Irish radio with Dr Abeba Birhane, who's on a UN advisory board about AI.

 

Sure, why attempt to improve the climate resilience or affordable housing in the cities where millions of people already live, when you can just buy land upstate and get a whole new toy to play with? And why tell local, state or national government anything - they'll only be supplying the land, water, sewerage, utilities & transport links. You pay your taxes, you deserve to get something back.

This is going to be one hell of a planning application. What's the land use code for "feudal stronghold"?
