ChatGPT's web search can search my blog, as I do on Google, but it's way more useful. Here's a screen shot. We're getting there. Really nice.#
I'd like to hear from tech vendors, asap, which ones will help American voters learn what's true independent of whatever "truth" the government wants us to believe? Who will stand with the people? A good question for all of us to ask. Ask news orgs the same question.#
It's worth listening to On The Media, interview with Masha Gassen, saying that the authoritarian government will want to define what's true and not. Since we now understand that most of the information flow now goes around the NYT, CNN etc -- even Fox, and largely through social web and podcasts, if that's where we're all getting our news from, and btw MSNBC are already pretty well limited in what they'll tell us (this was our beef with NYT if you recall) -- the next step is to make it impossible for us to hear what each other are saying. Now is the time to plant seeds for a defense of our speech and communication later. #
I see they have a piece about the "Manosphere." Stop blaming men. Lose that habit now. It's toxic.#
I asked ChatGPT: "Based on what you know about me, draw a picture of what you think my current life looks like."#

Linkblog items for the day.

The Dems stopped campaigning against Trump after winning the 2020 election and Trump never stopped. They failed to even see this. And it costs so little to keep the party on the air on social web. Highest priority now -- getting back on the air. Such a stupid unforced error. Blind. newrepublic.com
Once again the Dems shut down their campaign after the loss. This is the biggest single mistake Democrats keep making. scripting.com
