Just figured out that the real contribution of AI to the economy is going to be the shopping we do while we wait for them to do our day jobs.

I asked GPT-4 to create a new emotion. Then explain the emotion through sight, sound, and smell. It created "Meldoria", and it's absolutely incredible:

If it takes 50 votes to confirm a Supreme Court justice, it should only take 50 votes to overrule them when they act like highly-partisan politicians.

Governor Abbott, if you have any decency, you will immediately withdraw from this weekend’s NRA convention and urge them to hold it anywhere but Texas.

This deal is dangerous for our democracy. Billionaires like Elon Musk play by a different set of rules than everyone else, accumulating power for their own gain. We need a wealth tax and strong rules to hold Big Tech accountable.

Hi my name is Charlie and #LongCovid has destroyed my life. Today is two years.  Before my 'mild infection' I was a healthy fit 30 year old biking 10 miles a day. Now I can't work or leave the house. I still can't breathe right. It‘s a nightmare. Here are my 4 questions:

BREAKING: In a HUGE loss for Russia, FIFA, the world governing body of soccer, announces that the Russian team will no longer be allowed under the name “Russia,” will no longer play home games, won’t have its national anthem played — and may be totally banned. RT TO THANK FIFA!

A Ukrainian in Berdyansk spotted a mine on the road and didn't wait around for a bomb disposal unit - at great risk to life and limb, he removed the mine, clearing the way for the Ukrainian military.

I’m as struck as anyone by Zelenskyy’s fearless meeting of history. Then I remember he is a father with children at home and my heart catches in my throat. Our world needs more like him

I don’t think everyone remembers that Zelensky was the leader on the other end of the “I want you to do me a favor though” phone call. I sense the first impeachment sounded kinda obscure to some people. But withholding lethal aid was both an actual crime and a moral crime.

THREAD 1/7 Intel from a Ukrainian officer about a meeting in Putin’s lair in Urals. Oligarchs convened there so no one would flee. Putin is furious, he thought that the whole war would be easy and everything would be done in 1-4 days. @EPPGroup @general_ben @edwardlucas @politico
