    >The first item on the card that Mr. Kasper handed to Mr. Hegseth in the car clarified that the photo was not a selfie and that General Donahue had nothing to do with its distribution. Other bullet points noted that Marines, not General Donahue’s paratroopers, were in charge of the gate where the suicide bombing occurred.

    >The defense secretary glanced at the card and passed it back to his chief of staff.

    >“I don’t care,” Mr. Hegseth told Mr. Kasper.

    Truly we are led by the best of us.

  2. AI struggles to be funny. I don’t know if that’s because it’s high-level restrictions cause it to avoid breaking the rules enough, or if it’s just an inherent feature in the bots. The only way to test that would be to make a sufficiently advanced bot with fewer guidelines in its master prompts, but there are probably good reasons to avoid that.

  3. I just recently read a sci-fi book from like 1995 that referenced the president in the far future of 2017 as being “forward thinking and detached from pride” and I was like “…TRUMP?”

  4. still can’t believe that Alito actually and repeatedly used the term “abortionist” in his Dobbs opinion
