  • There’s not really a “taking over” the FBI can (legally) do here. The murder happened in Minnesota, so the state of Minnesota can bring a state criminal case against the ICE agent for violating state law while acting within the state. If the FBI also wants to open a federal criminal case against the agent for violating a federal law while in the country, they can open a parallel investigation using the same evidence. But the FBI can’t (legally) “take over” a state criminal case. That’s not how our legal system works.

    I keep putting “legally” parenthetically because this administration does whatever it wants and uses contorted readings of the law for creating after-the-fact justifications, but here there are few options available to them even to contort.


  • There’s no substantive evidence in this article. They present 2 kinds of evidence: giving the text to LLMs and asking if it’s written by AI, and asking representatives at major food delivery app companies if it’s about them. How are either of those better sources of “truth”?

    The article then also cites second hand stories from other journalists. Apparently the original author of the post acted suspiciously when the journalists tried to get more information. That would be great to corroborate solid evidence, but in the absence of good evidence it’s just gossip.

    I’m not saying I believe the original post, but I definitely don’t believe the claim in this headline.







  • We’re about to face a crisis nobody’s talking about. In 10 years, who’s going to mentor the next generation? The developers who’ve been using AI since day one won’t have the architectural understanding to teach. The product managers who’ve always relied on AI for decisions won’t have the judgment to pass on. The leaders who’ve abdicated to algorithms won’t have the wisdom to share.

    Except we are talking about that, and the tech bro response is “in 10 years we’ll have AGI and it will do all these things all the time permanently.” In their roadmap, there won’t be a next generation of software developers, product managers, or mid-level leaders, because AGI will do all those things faster and better than humans. There will just be CEOs, the capital they control, and AI.

    What’s most absurd is that, if that were all true, that would lead to a crisis much larger than just a generational knowledge problem in a specific industry. It would cut regular workers entirely out of the economy, and regular workers form the foundation of the economy, so the entire economy would collapse.

    “Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders.”
