Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

From the obits I read today he was essentially her carer and turned down at least one role and stayed on the backbenches for her.

Pretty sure he wasn't hey sole carer

There was a clip earlier on the box where he referred to her wheelchair as a sentence and I get that but also know a few people who see their chairs as quite the opposite.

Wonder where his 'on your bike' rhetoric ended? With the able bodied or beyond?

Tebbitt was a man ahead of his time. He was a vicious, cruel bigot at a time when they weren't the norm in the Conservative Party, as they now are.

I saw it from Prof Steve Peers: bsky.app Difficult to attribute that directly to Musk, if I'm being naive and generous. Deeply worrying nonetheless that an AI response spouts this, but given the frequency with which people expect AI to come up with the right answer I wonder whether it is more appropriate to write this off as AI being AI? Musk owns X. And ordered it reprogrammed because it contradicted him and told him he was a racist. He specifically ordered his AI not to use reputable sources of data. So is it directly attribute if Musk has personally ordered it to report racist and antisemitic conspiracy theories? I'd go with yes... I didn't make my thought process clear enough here. My thought was "one response from an AI bot doesn't give cause for it to be accused of being programmed in a certain direction" as that's the only thing I saw. If there was a long stream of similar responses from a variety of different question sources, then I would agree that it appears to have been directed in some way, and I would agree with you that Musk has such a strong personal control over twitter that it would link back to him personally. What I'm missing is the "lots of people" stuff, which I didn't track down. Perhaps my searching is not active enough.


This enough to convince you?

Jeez, seeing people posting screenshots which are showing it now advocating for another holocaust.

Full blown antisemitism

No idea what they've used to train the LLM at the heart of it. Probably Musk's own tweets

If you've not already quit Twitter, now is the time or you are supporting active and loud antisemitism

I'm afraid I'm of the opinion that stream of consciousness apps like Twatter and Bluesky are both damaging to a person's mental health, although in different ways. Best to swerve them all if you want to increase more equilibrium into your day. They are inexhaustible. You are not.
