It's hilarious yet so frustrating at the same time. After all the the allegations and investigations into Trump, the best they can indict him on is paying off some porn whore's lawyer with hush money during the 2016 election. Probably the most common corruption that all politicians take part in when they're running for anything. It's not even that big of a scandal either. I'm pretty certain the news media gets paid off all the time to not to speak about way more damning things like laptops with incriminating evidence on them owned by the son of a nominee.

It's nice to be able to tell he wrote this one due to the caps lock for cruise control.

Personally I'm concerned they're retarded enough to go further than just arresting him. It would most likely lead to an actual repeat of 1861, but these people are short sighted dipshits who think they have a mandate from God. There is no worse combination of attitudes than utter self assurance and utter incompetence.

When I was dating a Journalist, she told me they get stories across their desks occasionally, and the editor gets a call from the State or Local Government and tells them to keep it out of the News. Otherwise they can make things very difficult for the news company.

If I understand the issue it's not even the "hush money" that's the issue, it was a payment to sign a legal NDA which is legal. it's how it was paid and that it could be considered a undeclared campaign donation, as it they claim not being extorted helped his political chances.

If I'm wrong I actually welcome clarification since most articles about this are being really vague and playing up the hUsH mOnEy angle, as if that was the supposed issue, but as far as I can tell it's instead technicalities about how it was paid?

Didn't they said there would be nothing done for a month due to a planned break? Wonder if word came down to push for the indictment so it would dominate headlines or push someone over the edge.

Most likely, especially with how the Nashville shooting turned out.

I'm confused with this Trump indictment, the statute of limitations has passed on his alleged crime, how can they charge him with anything? A reputable judge would look at the charges and have to toss them.

Silly, Hitler. We're living in a two-tier justice system, probably for a long time and Trump just brought it into the light.

So it's even more ridiculous. It's a technicality hes being indicted for. And I'm not surprised then that the media is going hard on the hush money part. If they actually clarified he's getting indicted for technicality of all things, it would paint him in a far better light.

FTC Complaint Targets OpenAI's ChatGPT, Calls For Suspension Of New 'Bias Reinforcing' Chatbot Deployment | ZeroHedge

ZeroHedge - On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero
www.zerohedge.com www.zerohedge.com
Tech ethics organization Center for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Policy filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission on Thursday, asserting that Microsoft-backed startup OpenAI's recently introduced ChatGPT-4 product violates federal consumer protection law. They have urged a halt on all new generations of artificial intelligence chatbots by OpenAI for commercial deployment.

In a complaint to the agency, CAIDP asked the FTC to investigate and suspend further deployment of OpenAI's commercial products until the research firm complies with the FTC Guidance for AI products.

CAIDP stated ChatGPT-4 is "biased, deceptive, and a risk to privacy and public safety." The complaint is led by privacy advocate Marc Rotenberg who said:

"The FTC has a clear responsibility to investigate and prohibit unfair and deceptive trade practices. We believe that the FTC should look closely at OpenAI and GPT-4.

"We are specifically asking the FTC to determine whether the company has complied with the guidance the federal agency has issued."

OpenAI launched ChatGPT-4 in early March. CAIDP pointed out that the technical description of the AI chatbot describes a dozen major risks, including "Disinformation and influence operations." OpenAI even warned that "AI systems will have even greater potential to reinforce entire ideologies, worldviews, truths, and untruths, and to cement them or lock them in, foreclosing future contestation, reflection, and improvement."


CAIDP said in the complaint that ChatGPT-4 fails to meet the FTC's standard of being "transparent, explainable, fair and empirically sound while fostering accountability." They warned the chatbot is a potential risk to society.

The complaint comes days after Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak, AI pioneer Yoshua Bengio and others signed an open letter calling for a six-month pause of new AI chatbots more powerful than ChatGPT-4.

"We've reached the point where these systems are smart enough that they can be used in ways that are dangerous for society," said Bengio, director of the University of Montreal's Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms, adding, "And we don't yet understand."

Their concerns were laid out in a letter titled "Pause Giant AI Experiments: An Open Letter," which was spearheaded by the Future of Life Institute - a nonprofit advised by Musk.

Musk - an early founder and financial backer of OpenAI, and Wozniak, have been outspoken about the dangers of AI for a while. We've outlined some of those dangers, such as political bias:

Tech investor David Sacks recently revealed: "There is mounting evidence OpenAI's safety layer is very biased... If you thought trust and safety were bad under Vijaya or Yoel, wait until the AI does it."
