Accomplishments of Trump’s war against Iran.
1. Replaced a geriatric hardline leader with a younger hardline leader and gave him good reason to hate and mistrust the US.
2. Demonstrated that a nuclear weapons arsenal is the key to deterring US aggression.
3. Near term global energy crisis.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

I have been trying the Mistral AI chatbot Le Chat. I really like it.

It is more neutral in tone and less sycophantic than ChatGPT.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s)…”

Can the rest of the world select some acceptable leaders for the United States?
