The good news is, because of this it'll probably go very badly for Trump at the midterms.

He's already laying the groundwork to invalidate or take over control of the midterms to ensure that your vote only counts if it's for his toadies.

Get clowns.

LOL, no you don't. Demonstrably so.

It hasn't been "autocomplete" in a long time. Sure, there's a training step based on a corpus of Human language, and the autoregressive process outputs a single token at a time, but reinforcement learning trains specific behaviors beyond merely completing a sentence.

Besides, the best way to write something indistinguishable from what a Human might write is to, well, "think" like a Human.

Are we, as a sapient species facing an uncertain prospect of continuence in a world full of rapidly-advancing bullshit going to learn from this catastrophic and absurdly predictable failure of information security, personal and professional ethics, civilian government, market economics, basic common sense, and consumer psychology?

Eight-Ball-Based-On-Cursory-Reading-Of-Literally-Any-Slice-of-Human-History says "no".

What do you say, and why is it also "no"?

...they don't still have to deal with those jerks in Pod 6.

I'm not going back to Mr Pepper! I CAN'T DO IT, MAN!

But that's not what happened. They posted the doctored image on Facebook and hundreds of people called them out on it. Then, without investigating, their response was to gaslight people, saying "The packaging is most likely foreign, and it is possible that whoever made the packaging used AI to make a clearly knock-off package" (they denied it in two separate posts). For an organization that supposedly specializes in investigations and relies on the public trust, AT THE VERY LEAST it makes them look wildly incompetent. So, either they fabricated evidence, or they're incompetent. This is not an "oopsie, our bad!"

The issue is not that an office screwed up trying to add a logo. The issue is that the department's response was to gaslight the public about it.

The core of the problem was that they initially denied that they did anything at all. It wasn't until after they were pressured to actually investigate that they finally admitted they doctored the photo. In other words, they straight up lied right from the get-go. Their default position was to lie about.

Meanwhile, my local AMC hasn't invested a single dime in maintenance or upkeep in almost 20 years. The seats are filthy and usually broken, the concession stands look like they haven't been cleaned in a decade, there's always at least one urinal with a trashbag full of piss tied to it for some reason. I guess AMC decided they still have another foot and one more bullet so they might as well shoot themselves in both feet.

Gosh, I wish I could abrogate my due diligence and fiduciary obligations just by saying "I didn't know." That would save so much time and money.

Anyway,

All we have now is Teams, New Teams, Teams (New) , Teams Home, Teams for Business, New Teams for Business, New Home Teams for Home and Business (New), and New Teams (Home Business Edition).

Louis Rossman has made a couple of videos about this already. I can't wait for Part 3.
