Some fantastic info about the problems with ChatGPT! Especially good for professors to share with their students. :) I find more than anything that education is the way to help students choose not to use AI. The more they learn, the less likely they are to use it!

The comeback of the Left in Germany is sensational. Almost written off ahead of elections, they won 6 districts and almost 9% of votes + are biggest party in Berlin and among young voters. Also only party to not campaign on anti-immigration but to focus on affordable rent and cost of living

Brexit was literally the same people behind Trump. Musk is just Cummings with a stupid hat on. The UK were the crash test dummies for everything that is happening now. Remember when Jacob Rees-Mogg did something very similar to the British civil service?

The MAGA clout goblins can't BELIEVE we could possibly be offended at all their Nazi salutes, such soft lefty cucks we are, when less than five years ago they were LOSING THEIR MINDS over people taking the knee after the murder of George Floyd.

Gonna be interesting to watch the Big Nonprofits quietly take down all their Big Talk about DEI from their websites. Cause truth be told: they were over it anyway once they realized it was more than a communications strategy. They're going to be quiet about it, but that sigh of relief will be LOUD.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

Yup, exactly. If you're chasing growth without a plan to distribute the benefits of that growth, you're not fixing anything.

Labour's disgusting deportation stunt this week wasn't just morally bankrupt, it was politically stupid. Politicians need to find the backbone to be honest about the real source of our problems: the wealthy elite draining money from our communities metro.co.uk/2025/02/11/l...

The Labour right screamed and broke things for years and this is what it was for: so they could get their photos in the paper looking "seriously" out of frame while they pretended to solve a problem by making everyone's lives worse.

The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.

This January was the hottest on record and people across the globe are feeling the devastating impacts of the climate crisis. But the far-right, bankrolled by the ultra-wealthy, are organising to destroy climate action. Here's how we can stop them: www.independent.co.uk/voices/refor...

I think about this a lot when it comes to the mad amounts of money going to AI. We have a world of HUMAN intelligence finding cures for cancer, solutions to climate change etc. But these get defunded (like WHO, NIH) & billions are poured into apps that make up facts & render hands with 6.5 fingers 🙄
