What's going to happen to Wikipedia when people realize that they can just tell an AI "The 2024 election was stolen," plug it into a botnet, and watch it make thousands of small, logical, internally consistent edits to support that statement? How could we ever unravel that?

DON'T WRITE YOUR WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS IN ALL CAPS. IF IT HAS TO BE CONSPICUOUS, JUST MAKE THE FONT BOLD. EVEN UNDERLINE WOULD BE AN IMPROVEMENT.

The rest all sounds good. Expanding the court probably isn't the right political strategy, but I have no problem with it as policy.

Yeah, I don't like that supermajority requirement. It's true that SCOTUS has become much more powerful than Congress, but only because of Congress's apathy. Giving Congress even more power to use arbitrarily wouldn't help.

I misread that as "a replacement for a dead parrot," and I thought, actually, that's a pretty reasonable use case for AI.

I mean... you might need a nuclear power plant, but the point is that it's possible, not that it's a good idea.

But not in that quantity. Quantity is the one thing AI does well.

AI can't time travel, but it could generate a realistic fourteen-year-old message board right now. Eventually someone is going to try that. Hopefully CNN is confident in their forensics.
