Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

The persistently excellent @gustavoarellano.bsky.social knocks this one out of the ballpark. Kristi Noem has been doing political theatre for Donald Trump and couldn’t stand Alex Padilla upstaging her. Americans demonizing people who don’t look and speak like you. 📰 www.latimes.com/california/s...

Outstanding writing and reporting here. Takeaway is what you might expect: The Dept. of Defense is a shitshow under Hegseth. But the hows are articulated in such impressive and absorbing detail.
