this entire crusade against diversity in hiring and admissions is based on the supposition that all white men are necessarily more qualified than any nonwhite person or woman who might be considered for the job. like, this lawsuit more or less states that outright.

This is almost word for word what I tell students. Even if you’ve been disillusioned by what’s happening at the state and federal level, you need to get out and shore up your local politics.

It’s Sulzberger trying to tip the election for Trump, because he doesn’t think Trump can beat Biden. And he wants Trump to win. It’s why Republicans are leaking they’re more scared of other Democrats running.

One thing that is certainly striking to me is that the rest of the mainstream appears to be relying almost entirely on the NYT to guide the conversation. CNN is leading with a story about an NYT story. NPR "commentary" here is just a recounting of NYT stories.

True Diana doing that was wonderful, but more people need to realize the UK has been a constitutional monarchy since Victoria took the throne. Take that away and things like brexit and increasingly ruining health care would still be there.

It’s so ridiculous because degree levels are about expertise, not intelligence. Besides, LLMs have no architectural mechanism to support intelligence. Their core mechanism is probability analysis, not reasoning. They in fact aren’t capable of reason.

And, conversely, I've known PhD holders who have neither intelligence nor even basic knowledge in their field. They just defended an idiotic dissertation in front of a committee that, impossibly, knew even less about their subject matter than they did. Not supposed to be possible, but it was.

I'm most disturbed by the presumption that a PhD signifies intelligence. I was in Mensa briefly and the other members were imbeciles because they all believed they were too smart for school and thus never refined their intelligence with *education.* Every one was a conspiracy nutter as a result.

Like she’s blatantly full of shit. No one will follow-up on this. The models have already absorbed every publicly available dissertation ever written so what’s stopping it from being this “smart” now? And it still doesn’t address the “hallucination” problem. It’s a nonsense statement.

Desperation doesn't sell. The more desperate your game's marketing appears, the less appealing it will be. You want to find a healthy balance between urgency and appeal.
