Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Especially when it is all projection. The current Republican party would indeed try to frivolously prosecute a former president, Dems would send a sternly worded letter

a thing to remember, in all of this horror, is that these are not the actions of a political party that is confident it represents the will of the people, and who is currently out of power and enslaved to a deeply flawed avatar. the struggle is not over and they have not won

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

The thing statements like this are hiding is basically every LLM from the major players has already reached the end of the training data universe. They’ve absorbed everything there is to scrape. They’re in desperate need of new data to build larger models. That data isn’t being created fast enough.

What’s far more likely is, as they’re forced to train models on LLM-generated data, the quality of these models dramatically decreases. Garbage in, garbage out. They’re in a desperate race to squeeze all the value out of this bubble before it bursts.
