There’s a park in my area. Literally every time I have been there, over several years, there is a van in the parking lot. It has a wire mesh bust of Hillary Clinton on top, and is covered with writings about various conspiracy theories about her, and slogans like “Hillary for Jail!”
Possibly the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.
I really hate that people keep treating these LLMs as if they’re actually thinking. They absolutely are not. All they are, under the hood, is really complicated statistical models. They don’t think about or understand anything, they just calculate what the most likely response to a given input is based on their training data.
That becomes really obvious when you look at where they often fall down: math questions and questions about the actual words they’re using.
They do well on standardized math assessments, but if you change the questions just a little, to something outside their training data (often just different numbers or a slightly different phrasing is enough), they fail spectacularly.
They often can’t answer questions about words at all (how many 'R’s in ‘strawberry’, for instance) because they don’t even have a concept of the word, they just have a token that represents that word, and a list of associations that they use to calculate when to use that word.
LLMs are complex, and the way they’re designed means that the specifics of what associations they make and how they’re weighted and things like that are opaque to us, but that doesn’t mean we don’t know how they work (despite that being a big talking point when they first came out). And I really wish people would stop treating them like something they’re not.
"It remains unclear what standards Khelif and Lin Yu Ting of Taiwan failed last year to lead to the disqualifications.
The IOC, which is overseeing the boxing competition in Paris, does not test for gender, and there never has been evidence that either Khelif or Lin had XY chromosomes or elevated levels of testosterone. They have competed for years, including at the Tokyo Olympics and several world championships."
So, none of that is true. She may have high testosterone (which isn’t even confirmed), but none of what you said follows. That isn’t even how that works.
There is no trans woman in this case. A female boxer, born and raised as a woman, is being attacked and called a man. What OP is saying is that it’s basically because they don’t see her as attractive, and that’s definitely a major component of it.
What it comes down to is that they’re so obsessed with the idea of trans women that they start seeing them everywhere, and it usually comes down to someone not being quite feminine enough in some way, though there have been cases of people trying to claim some of the most conventionally attractive women in the world were secretly trans.
Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the GOP still tries to run Trump even after he’s dead.
I was calling out the (mostly conservatives) who repeatedly say that we shouldn’t make any effort to reduce emissions because “China is worse”.
Oh no, who are we going to blame our refusal to lower emissions on now?

What study might that be? All the data I’m finding puts the estimate between 2-10%.
False sexual assault allegations are incredibly rare. The much bigger issue is the fact that only a tiny percentage of real assaults are reported. Often because of exactly the kind of rhetoric you’re showing here.
