Some of my friends that are convicted felons are 100% innocent of what they were accused and convicted of. Some of my friends that are convicted felons are guilty, and absolutely did what they were accused of. I don't make fun of people for being convicted felons, and I don't ostracize them. Instead, I don't let bad people around me. My definition of bad focuses on the choices that a person made in the past, and the choices that they make now. Some of the worst people, will never be felons.

@mekkaokereke What's going to be interesting in the next few days it's how the "zero tolerance" folks and all the tough on crime politicians and commentators will be talking about Trump and his associates. I suspect it will be a very different and much softer tone, even though we all know that what he's done is orders is magnitude worse than the "three strikes" felons who got 20 years for stealing a pint of milk.

ChatGPT hallucinates fake but plausible scientific citations at a staggering rate, study finds

"MacDonald found that a total of 32.3% of the 300 citations generated by ChatGPT were hallucinated. Despite being fabricated, these hallucinated citations were constructed with elements that appeared legitimate — such as real authors who are recognized in their respective fields, properly formatted DOIs, and references to legitimate peer-reviewed journals."

@arniepix @bibliolater @science @ai the hallucination thing, especially coming from California, just makes it sound more like a cult "yeah man, copyright is an illusion, and reality is whatever you say it is, expand your mind"
