I dislike AI (LLM) generated output for a myriad of reasons, but there has been one use case I’ve found useful, as much as I hate to admit it, and that is digesting large volumes of text and summarising it or identifying passages in that text that match my description of what I want to find - generally a better outcome than simple keyword searching.
And this makes me wonder why Google photos has such a terrible search function.

Journalists don’t verify anything these days, because their bosses are focused on being the first to publish. Doesn’t matter if it’s right or wrong, the article only exists to get the advertising to load.

- Comment on YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to choose their own voters. In many countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States 4 months ago:
You jest, but it was named after a person:
The term “gerrymander” originated in 1812 from the redrawing of Massachusetts state senate election districts under Governor Elbridge Gerry. The newly shaped districts, particularly one in Essex County, were said to resemble a mythological salamander. Federalist party members, critical of the practice, coined the term “Gerry-mander” (later shortened to gerrymander) by combining Gerry’s name with “salamander”

For the same freedom of speech reasons that we’re applying to Colbert. That jerkwad is just as entitled to lie as they are to tell the truth, and it’s up to everyone else to call them out on it.
