A WaPo Poll Found That Significant Majorities Support Pro-Trans Policies, But Reported The Exact Opposite

Putting a giant "Most in U.S. back GOP's anti-trans policies" headline on the front page when describing a poll that found that to be false is journalistic malpractice.

Also: you know the cartoon where the dude turns into a Nazi because people called him a Nazi? Don’t be like that. Some people who hate the bad-faith shitbirds will also hate you. Every movement has assholes, narcissist, and dramatics. Deal with it and focus not not being a bad-faith shitbird.
Never consent to pretend that shitbirds are decent people. You don’t have to spend your time throwing elbows at them, but don’t allow yourself to be bad-faithed into thinking that democracy or civility require you to treat shitty morons like they’re normal and acceptable.

The AI moratorium letter only fuels AI hype. It repeatedly presents speculative, futuristic risks, ignoring the version of the problems that are already harming people. It distracts from the real issues and makes it harder to address them. The letter has a containment mindset analogous to nuclear risk, but that’s a poor fit for AI. It plays right into the hands of the companies it seeks to regulate. By @sayashk and me. https://aisnakeoil.substack.com/p/a-misleading-open-letter-about-sci
A misleading open letter about sci-fi AI dangers ignores the real risks

Misinformation, labor impact, and safety are all risks. But not in the way the letter implies.
