TRANSPHOBIA IS MISOGYNY
it’s telling fascists are eager to ban transgender women, but nary a peep about transgender men.
and no, it’s not because they prefer the men. they don’t expect them to be competitive. after all, their assigned sex at birth was female.
fascists cannot deal with the fact transgender women not only reject their assigned male indentity. they prove it is not an immutable commodity you get with an appendage.
they prove being a bro is nothing special.
By the way, if "we can always tell" was actually a thing, they wouldn't need to run genetic testing to know who was cis and who was trans.
If you can't tell the difference without genetic testing, the difference isn't meaningful enough to matter.
LLMs are essentially gullible. And many people, even otherwise smart people, are gullible enough to believe that "AI" distillations of facts are trustworthy. It's a problem of gullibility compounded. But there's also an entire industry that's devoted to trying to convince us NOT to be skeptical of AI, not to see it for what it is -- an often-naive statistical model that can and will increasingly be gamed by bad actors.
