I asked both Siri and Google if it was going to rain today. Both stated no. I asked them throughout the day. They both said no. When I woke up this morning, I could clearly see the dark clouds and rain coming my way. I looked at the weather radar. Precipitation was clearly on its way. We had a microburst and several storms throughout the day. Only at about 1530 did either of them state we had rain approaching. Technology is dumb. Seriously, so dumb.

The cruelty is the point.

Dan GillmorA reminder that less than two weeks ago, it was revealed that Trump solicited a $1 billion bribe from the energy industry, offering in return the gutting of environmental regulations.
A week ago, Big Journalism had already consigned this epic scandal to the memory bin.
Had Biden done anything remotely like that, I guarantee that it would still be among the top stories of the day -- and Congress, including Democrats, would be moving toward impeachment.
Great investigation and video

Why can't we pick our phone then pick our OS like we can finally pick our phone then our carrier? Or like how I can build any PC then throw any OS I want on it? Why is this such a chore to install whatever damn OS I want on my phone hardware. This is just crap.
SO. MUCH. CRAPPY. PROCESS.
Virginia Murr1. The people who purposefully put out false info (or "just asking questions") are adding DISinformation to the mix.
2. Disinformation mongers have gargantuan networks of fake and real accounts to push their fake information. Also DISinformatin.
3. Where the algo pushes this planned crap into regular users' feeds and those regular users fall for it and then they share it ... THAT is misinformation.
Let's not give those purposefully doing this crap a pass. Their intent is to deceive.

One day OpenAI will acknowledge that its entire business is built on misappropriation of intellectual property. Today is not that day.
Part of OpenAI's schtick is blurring the line: They handwave past copyright concerns over their training data, mounting a plausible but contestable claim of fair use. But then they pull shit like this.
