Bij de vorige verkiezingen heb ik ook op je gestemd vanwege je kennis op het gebied van Digitale Zaken. Maar toen stond je op een verkiesbare plaats. Goed te zien dat de nerdvote campagne deze keer heeft geholpen. Gefeliciteerd.

"I’m not looking so bad now, huh? Absolute best case, the LLM-generated legal advice you get is merely plagiarizing, probably from me. But more likely, it’s a mish-mash of Reddit posts filtered through an algorithm coded by a Belarusian teen on the run from Interpol."

DOGE Is Working on Software That Automates the Firing of Government Workers Operatives working for Elon Musk’s DOGE appear to be editing the code of AutoRIF—software designed by the Defense Department that could assist in mass firings of federal workers, sources tell WIRED.

Thousands of potential layoffs *apparently* still isn't efficient enough for Elon Musk. Now, operatives linked to DOGE are reportedly modifying AutoRIF, a Defense Department program that could enable mass firings of federal workers.

Elon Musk tweet: Just a reminder that the algorithm is trying to maximize unregretted user-seconds. If far more credible, verified subscriber accounts (not bots) mute/block your account compared to those who like your posts, your reach will ...

It's a shitty user experience. It also should incentivize reporters/outlets to move elsewhere
