Michael Cohen, the former lawyer for Donald Trump, admitted to citing fake, AI-generated court cases in a legal document that wound up in front of a federal judge, as reported earlier by The New York Times. A filing unsealed on Friday says Cohen used Google’s Bard to perform research after mistaking it for “a super-charged search engine” rather than an AI chatbot.
I… don’t even. I lack the words.
That’s the thing. I look around and have no reason to think fascism is impending. It’s here.
Women are getting jailed for miscarriage, cops are hanging out lackadaisically outside a school shooting on their phones with zero consequences, homeless jumped 12% in one year, and the big issue is sending hundreds of billions more off to other countries’ wars.
The only plus is that things have gotten so bad it’s forced unions to become more aggressive and unyielding, which has effected more positive change for workers than the ruling parties have achieved in decades.
I don’t know if you’re into podcasts, but Adam conover’s podcast Factually is really great. They have an episode called " what’s the left gets wrong about the right" and it dives into how the right is primarily a reactionary movement to social and economic progress to try to maintain power for the owning and ruling class. It’s a really great episode and it hits a lot on some of the similar points that you were mentioning with the unions. It’s definitely worth checking it out If you’ve got like an hour to kill, It’s super dope.
Conover’s rant about the Patagonia founder’s billion dollar donation to avoid taxes and set his kids up is really good too.
Are you talking about the Ohio woman, because she wasn’t arrested for a miscarriage?
Sure, you can argue she got arrested for “abuse of a corpse”, but
You’re leaving out the part where she tried to shove it down the toilet, then left it there for an extended period of time when that didn’t work.
Yes, people afraid of going to jail for their bodily function will behave in unpredictable manners.
