🚨Trump: "I won't sign ANY bills until SAVE Act passes" Schumer: "So be it. Senate Democrats will not help pass the SAVE Act under any circumstances." 21M+ Americans lack the documents this bill requires. This isn't about election security — it's about voter suppression.

Wondering: if a quote is falsely attributed to a person, who then quotes the quote, does that make it their quote?

1/6 Remember our thread about AI's episodic memory problems? (Thank you @roon for the amazing signal boost! 🙏) We've got a curious plot twist that challenges what we hypothesized about "thinking" models... 🧵
1/12 We just found something unsettling: Today's most advanced AI models - including the latest powerhouse reasoning models - can't keep track of what actually happened. Even in a simple conversation. Our ICLR'25 paper reveals why this matters 🧵

If Biden had said this, it would be on a 24/7 loop on cable, and all over TikTok.
Trump: They are brics nation, Spain? Do you know what a brics nation is? You will figure it out.

A year and a half later, and the @arrl renewal process is still broken.
Tried to renew @arrl membership yesterday. The new web site is a disaster! Had to end up calling and doing it on the phone…come’on folks I’m trying to give you money!

HMDs should stop marketing weight in grams and start marketing neck torque in newton-meters.
Replying to @DreamStarter_1
Weight is one thing, but I’d argue Center of gravity is more notable for comfort

I've been taking adderall five days a week for about six months. It hasn't had any noticeable effect. I gave myself an OTC drug test this morning, and tested negative. I think I'll switch to something stronger, like coffee.
I take my adderall every single day, every other day once in a while if I forget a dose. Why tf did I just test negative on my routine drug test?? Wtf have I been taking!!??

Oooh, nice. ChatGPT speaks MiniZinc. I wasn't sure there'd be enough training material for that one.

Today we're releasing a /describe command that lets you transform images-into-words. Give it a shot! We think this tool will transform your liguistic-visual process both in terms of creative power and discovery.

This might already exist, but I don't know about it. Y'know how Midjourney has the "Rank Pairs" feature, where it gives you a pair of images, and you rank them? I'd like to see that in Stable Diffusion, for training LoRAs or whatever.

Just found out today that Roger Schank passed away. I took a class from him, once upon a time. I still remember a bit of what I learned. Shame I wasn't a better student.
Roger Schank, a scientist who made influential contributions to the field of AI and then, as an academic and entrepreneur, focused on understanding "the nature of the human mind," died on Jan. 29. He was 76. nyti.ms/41aA4W6
