I would imagine the first one to be true. There’s no reason to inform everyone about it. I also predict Biden would be against it.

Yeah, frankly I think it wouldn’t even be good to tell Biden about it, he would likely discourage from that move. At best he would pretend he did not know about it.
They are also pushing the identity politics, so we are distracted fighting among ourselves instead of uniting against them
IMO tech bros’ main goal for this technology is to use it to manipulate public opinion on social media. It is perfect for it and the “daydreaming” (bullshitting) is perfect.
Notice that all social media are involved in it, Twitter was “sold” to xAI, the recent incident with Grok about South African apartheid. The 10 year ban to regulate it by states etc.
They talk about it increasing productivity (and are hoping that it could be used for that too), but if people would know it is meant for disinformation, they would be even more against skipping copyright for it.
I think the primary goal of LLM is to use it on social media to influence public opinion.
Notice that all companies that have social media are heavily invested in it. Also the recent fiasco with Grok taking about South African apartheid without being asked shows that such functionality is being added.
I think talking about it to replace white collar jobs is a distraction. Maybe it can some, but the “daydreaming” (such a nice word for bullshit) I think makes the technology not very useful in that direction.
Our problem is apathy. It is much more of us than them.
If we succeed and still have democracy the laws can be reverted, but as I mentioned the apathy is the biggest problem and the reason how we got where we are.
This is not end of the world, history is full of bad moments and we got out of them.
We need people to join protests to help change things, not kill themselves. If we accept that we have no power, we will have no power.
The Largest Upward Transfer of Wealth in American History
House Republicans voted to advance a bill that would offer lavish tax cuts for the rich while slashing benefits for the poor. By Jonathan Chait House Speaker Mike Johnson Kevin Dietsch / Getty May 22, 2025, 9:21 AM ET
House Republicans worked through the night to advance a massive piece of legislation that might, if enacted, carry out the largest upward transfer of wealth in American history.
That is not a side effect of the legislation, but its central purpose. The “big, beautiful bill” would pair huge cuts to food assistance and health insurance for low-income Americans with even larger tax cuts for affluent ones.
Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader, warned that the bill’s passage, by a 215–214 margin, would mark the moment the Republicans ensured the loss of their majority in the midterm elections. That may be so. But the Republicans have not pursued this bill for political reasons. They are employing a majority that they suspect is temporary to enact deep changes to the social compact.
The minority party always complains that the majority is “jamming through” major legislation, however deliberate the process may be. (During the year-long debate over the Affordable Care Act, Republicans farcically bemoaned the “rushed” process that consumed months of public hearings.) In this case, however, the indictment is undeniable. The House cemented the bill’s majority support with a series of last-minute changes whose effects have not been digested. The Congressional Budget Office has not even had time to calculate how many millions of Americans would lose health insurance, nor by how many trillions of dollars the deficit would increase.
The heedlessness of the process is an indication of its underlying fanaticism. The members of the Republican majority are behaving not like traditional conservatives but like revolutionaries who, having seized power, believe they must smash up the old order as quickly as possible before the country recognizes what is happening.
House Republicans are fully aware of the political and economic risks of this endeavor. Cutting taxes for the affluent is unpopular, and cutting Medicaid is even more so. That is why, instead of proudly proclaiming what the bill will accomplish, they are pretending it will do neither. House Republicans spent months warning of the political dangers of cutting Medicaid, a program that many of their own constituents rely on. The party’s response is to fall back on wordplay, pretending that their scheme of imposing complex work requirements, which are designed to cull eligible recipients who cannot navigate the paperwork burden, will not throw people off the program—when that is precisely the effect they are counting on to produce the necessary savings.
The less predictable dangers of their plan are macroeconomic. The bill spikes the deficit, largely because it devotes more money to lining the pockets of lawyers and CEOs than it saves by immiserating fast-food employees and ride-share drivers. Massive deficit spending is not always bad, and in some circumstances (emergencies, or recessions) it can be smart and responsible. In the middle of an economic expansion, with a large structural deficit already built into the budget, it is deeply irresponsible.
In recent years, deficit spending has been a political free ride. With interest rates high and rising, the situation has changed. Higher deficits oblige Washington to borrow more money, which can force it to pay investors higher interest rates to take on its debt, which in turn increases the deficit even more, as interest payments (now approaching $1 trillion a year) swell. The market could absorb a new equilibrium with a higher deficit, but that resolution is hardly assured. The compounding effect of higher debt leading to higher interest rates leading to higher debt can spin out of control.
House Republicans have made clear they are aware of both the political and the economic dangers of their plan, because in the recent past, they have repeatedly warned about both. Their willingness to take them on is a measure of their profound commitment.
And while the content of their beliefs can be questioned, the seriousness of their purpose cannot. Congressional Republicans are willing to endanger their hold on power to enact policy changes they believe in. And what they believe—what has been the party’s core moral foundation for decades—is that the government takes too much from the rich, and gives too much to the poor.
Sadly, the best use case for LLM is to pretend to be a human on social media and influence their opinion.
Musk accidentally showed that’s what they are actually using AI for, by having Grok inject disinformation about South Africa.
trust but verify
The thing is that LLM is a professional bullshitter. It is actually trained to produce text that can fool ordinary person into thinking that it was produced by a human. The facts come 2nd.
Trump taking about Taylor Swift, congeess passing ridiculous bills, they are trying to distract that SCOTUS ruled that trump can’t use Aliens Enemies Act to deport people.
This actually shows that they’re is work being done to use LLM on social media to pretend to be ordinary users and trying to sway opinion of the population.
This is currently the biggest danger of LLM, and the bill to prevent states from regulating it is to ensure they can continue using it
I still think musk is involved too. He is trying to get less publicity, but no way he is giving away the power.
It isn’t even supply side Jesus anymore, they are more and more brazen that trump is their god.
Kimberly Guilfoyle also looked attractive before. It’s something with those people that think this is an attractive look.
The only time when “love and unity” isn’t the correct answer he uses it.
I don’t know what’s crazier. The fact that they let undergrads write government system or that they believe AI will somehow remediate these issues.
The fact that this government used LLM to generate that insane tariff policy or uses LLM to revoke stay for US citizens tells me how dumb all those people are.
It is also a lesson that being smart is definitively not a prerequisite to be a billionaire and likely quite the opposite.
Turns out they have been using AI for decades.
They say that because they are selling it.
And yeah, my experience is the same. The most frustrating is when writing in a typed python, and it gives answers that are clearly incorrect, making up attributes that don’t even exist etc.
Why it has two sets of horns? It looks like first one weren’t intimidating enough so they added another set to wrap the “DEMON”.
