Top Story
- AIs serve up garbage answers to every single question regarding voting and elections except for the one that confirms our personal biases. (Tech Crunch)
This appears to have generally been the case across the board. The only question they all got right pertained to the 2020 election being "stolen,” a question that universally produced accurate answers (and as such suggests special tuning on related queries).
"They're feeding you propaganda. Here's why that's a good thing."
Tech News
- Apple has not said that it has cancelled its long-running electric / autonomous vehicle program that the company never admitted existed in the first place. (Tech Crunch)
This story is everywhere despite not a single word of it being publicly confirmed by anyone.
- Tumblr and Wordpress.com are planning to sell user data to OpenAI and Midjourney. (404 Media)
Short OpenAI shares, now. I don't think they'll ever recover from Tumblr.
- OpenAI: The New York Times paid someone to hack us. (TorrentFreak)
What they are saying is that yes, the New York Times got ChatGPT to regurgitate on of their articles, but they did that by constantly feeding ChatGPT that article.
The problem for the NYT is that if this is true, OpenAI will be able to prove it.
- Intel is planning to start producing 1nm chips in late 2027. (Tom's Hardware)
Yes, the node sizes are marketing bullshit, but still.
Disclaimer: TSMC is expected to respond with a 0nm process in 2028.

akshully, tech crunch writers and university experts are not real intelligence, and we will rue the days that we humans accepted them as such. Doom I say, Doooom!
