    Semafor is a very shady website…

    https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/5/24062229/semafor-signals-miso-ai-microsoft

    The “journalists” that work there just use AI to summarize other articles and “curate” what they want people to see.

    A cynic would say this period is when they’re trying to build up trust and gain users, like Uber operating at a loss until it drove taxis out of business then raising prices.

    Once people start using it, that “ai curation” could be used to edit their blog posts in a way to get people to agree with what they want. Like, two different people go to the same website, and see bespoke headlines engineered to get various users to reach the same desired outcome.

    People worry about all type of AI stuff but this is what’s actual dangerous.

    A tailor made propaganda website.

    It’s not a news organization, it’s an algorithm. They don’t create anything of value on their own, they don’t write anything on their own

    They just rephrase things in a way to trick people into agreeing with the wealthy

      My voting disctrict in Omaha is megablue so it’ll be a tough fight for them to get it back.

        The bill is a state level thing, that would just assign all electoral votes to the winner of the state rather than by district.

    Maine will have no choice but to do the same…

    The majorities in both houses are solid and the Governor should easily come aboard
