Opinion | Actually, A.I. Is Pretty Mid (Gift Article)
A.I. is just what we need in the post-fact era: less research and more predicting what we want to hear.

Senator Tina Smith said: This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isnβt even the boss, heβs just a dick.
That was in response to Musk saying βConsistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.β
Musk responded @SenTinaSmith βWhat did you get done last week?β
Elon, I hate to break it to you but you arenβt my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota.
But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies
