One Tuesday night, as my wife and I sat down for dinner, a sheriff’s deputy knocked on the door to serve me a subpoena from OpenAI. I held back on talking about it because I didn't want to distract from SB 53, but Newsom just signed the bill so... here's what happened: 🧵

I try not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I have a REALLY hard time believing in a short text exchange, the alleged shooter: > Makes his confession. > Confirms location of the weapon. > Confirms the type of weapon. > Confirms it was wrapped in a towel. > Confirms his motive. > Exonerates the decoy [George Zinn]. > Admits to the bullet engravings. > Confirms the wardrobe change. > Confirms how long he’s been planning it. > Discloses the existence and location of a [now destroyed] pre-written confession note. > Randomly tells his boyfriend that his dad is die hard MAGA (as if he wouldn’t already know given the nature of their relationship) > And is worried about his Dad/Grandpa being upset if he doesn’t come home with the rifle, not the fact that he just used it to commit a murder. Not to mention a 22-year old terminally online Zoomer using phrases like: “Squad car” “Drop point” “Swept the area” “My vehicle” “Till I died of old age” “My old man” I’m sorry, I just don’t believe it.

Founder mode is a great concept ... that will also be used to justify horrendous leadership.

Biden: We’re the only nation in the history of the world built on an idea. We have never walked away from the idea. And I promise you, I will not let Donald Trump and the Maga Republicans force us to walk away now

OK everyone's asking me for my take on the OpenAI stuff, so here it is. I have a strong feeling about what's going on, but no internal info so this is just me talking. The first point to make is that the Dev Day was (IMO) an absolute embarrassment.

JUST IN: The average asking rent for a house in the US rises again in July to $2,038/month. Less than 3 years ago, the average asking rent in the US was at $1,600/month, 27% below current levels. Meanwhile, the median payment on a mortgage just hit a record $2,800/month. Simply living in the US has never been more expensive.

I did a thing this term where I told my students they were allowed to use ChatGPT. The catch was, they had to tell me about it in a reflection when they handed in their paper. This is a thread about how it all went.
