Retweet if you, as someone who works in tech, have ever considered quitting, buying a house away from people in the country (of whatever size), moving there, and never working in tech again.

Last year @CSETGeorgetown approached @OpenAI with a question: could we see whether GPT-3, their prized AI writing system, would generate disinformation? To my great surprise, they said yes. Our report today shows how GPT-3 can spin, distort, and deceive. cset.georgetown.edu/publicat…

This is absolutely extraordinary. Take three minutes to watch this man be incredibly vulnerable and humble in acknowledging what he didn't know about trans children and what changed his mind. THIS is an honorable human being. THIS is an ally.

While Donald Trump paid just $750 in U.S. federal income taxes during the first year of his presidency, he paid over $317,000 in taxes to India, Panama and the Philippines. How's that for America first?

In case anyone is unclear on the concept, in the United States of America, we do not “get rid of” ballots. We count them. Counting the ballots – *all* the ballots – is the way we determine who leads our country after our elections. The only way.

"Get rid of the ballots and we'll have a very peaceful -- there won't be a transfer, frankly. There will be a continuation. The ballots are out of control." Trump says as he refuses to commit to peaceful transition of power.

I’m one of the pilots that got shot down. Our Commander-in-Chief thinks that makes me a loser. He thinks the many friends I lost & soldiers I medevac'd were suckers. This is disgraceful. @realDonaldTrump is unfit to be Commander-in-Chief. theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

The president has repeatedly disparaged the intelligence of service members, and asked that wounded veterans be kept out of military parades, multiple sources tell The Atlantic.

One of my reporting projects has been to get to the bottom of the strategy with the Post Office. The president just says it out loud, though.

Trump this morning why he won’t fund US Postal Service. “Now they need that money in order to make the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots ... But if they don’t get those two items that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting.”

Qualities of a magnificent leader I see exemplified by this email: 1. Perpetual-learner 2. Desire for collaboration based on IDEAS, not status 3. Cites sources 4. Proud to mentor and be mentored 5. Seeks solutions, not credit for those solutions
