She replaced it with TAP WATER. If you inject something that’s sterile, at least they won’t DIE. Putting pure nonsterile tap water right into people’s blood stream leads a lot of confusing infections that can easily be traced back.
This lady was a moron and killed multiple people because she apparently doesn’t understand basic medical practice.
I cannot explain how crazy this is. Like medical knowledge 101.
How else are they going to compile kill lists for insurrection day/day of the long knives?
I’m not kidding. I hope the good people of the US make use of the 2nd amendment to defend themselves and their homes. They won’t be able to trust the cops; most of them will side with the insurrectionists.
While I agree, the flip side is records could be changed on a whim and it would be that much harder to prove they were changed.
If you’re worried about party affiliation being used against you then register as independent. That’s the only thing kept in that record that wasn’t always available in the phone books of past times.
not all brains” have the “same abilities” and that AI tools can reduce the financial burden of hiring human writing assistants
The path to equality does not necessarily lie in degrading the value of human creativity.
NaNoWriMo’s annual creative writing event is the organization’s flagship program that challenges participants to create a 50,000-word manuscript every November.
I would prefer to write 1,000 good words slowly than right 50,000 ungood word fastlier.
Worst part is, NaNoWriMo is a good practice tool to help people get past the initial apprehension about writing a novel, because a novel-sized work is a big undertaking. Throwing AI in there defeats that purpose.
I used to have a friend that NaNoWriMo every year and would update her progress on live journal. I always took the exercise to be what you’re describe, just an event to get people to write not even particularly well. Having your foundation saying that people not writing in your writing event is wild.
I would say that it is a good practice tool in a legitimate way. The same way exercising every day in a low-impact way for a few weeks before moving on to a higher impact workout. The original might not help much building muscles, but they get those muscles prepared for the harder work.
I’m not a writer, but my dad wrote a ton of academic books and my mom writes novels. Both say you have to write every day to keep in practice.
I still think the core problem lies with advertising on social media, especially contextual/targeted advertising. What if we prohibited for-profit social media companies?
I was thinking about this recently. Why do people still use social media that has ads or that allows self-promotion? It’s social media, not corporate media. Post stuff because you want to, not because you want to generate a profit.
I can see the benefits of AI in certain fields of work but why would you want it to take over in the creative industry? Isn’t tapping into your own creativity the fun part?
In the UK when you sign up to vote you have the option to be on the “open register” which is a list of voters that companies then buy to find people to spam with letters etc. Safe to say I’ve opted out
If you have Dyslexia then ChatGPT is a better spellcheck than whatever's in your writing software. I won't pretend to know all the applications of AI to help neurodiverse people to write but there are ways to use AI in writing that is very helpful to them. I wouldn't say having AI blurt out 50,000 words of nothing is particularly helpful to any writer though.
If I had any disorder that kept me from interacting with written words effectively, but I had a burning need to tell a particular story, I would either record an audio book, or ask a friend to help me write it down. I sure as hell wouldn't trust an LLM with my work.
