That depends on how you define lie. Trump has poor precision and accuracy in his statements but they are generally given in good faith and substantively true.

Contrast that with the media who is far more careful to give accurate and precise figures and detail but presents them selectively in a manner carefully crafted to mislead. It's a like a magician showing you the solid table, the hat, having someone verify the rabbit is alive... all precise facts delivered to distract from the fact there is a pouch in the tablecloth. Trump on the other hand would say "It really is an impressive trick, the magician will show you everything is real, all the props, absolutely everything and then dupe you anyway." Factually inaccurate... that magician technically didn't say "everything" was real or 'all the props [are real].'

Yet, at the end of the day Trump was substantively telling the truth while the magician was misleading you. Unless of course you count substantial statements about unsettled foreign policy which is still in active negotiation. Only a fool asks for unsettled specifics in an ongoing negotiation and expects something other than a refusal to commit or other performative answer for the other side of the negotiation.

Of course they are lying. The attack happened on a Iranian religious holiday, there wouldn't have been children in the school even if it really were one. Everything Iran spews is a lie.

*pats you on the head* It's okay little fella. The education system failed you.

"To reiterate: The Trump administration intervened on behalf of a racist, and intervened against someone teaching science accurately."

Yes that is a reiterate of the false information you presented when in reality they defended a man who didn't spare someone criticism for their wrongs because they were a minority and against someone wasting funds promoting politically contaminated nonsense which isn't consistent with the data.

I prefer that the institutions I'm paying for in the real world teach them skills which are useful in it and no ideology that has no relation to reality.

Propoganda rags. Let's see if they promote the same illegal and unjust racism I pointed out the administration fights...

Yup:

Times union is less overt but the numbers don't lie:
An established news organization doesn't go from 35% racial minority reporters to 75% racial minority reporters in a 87% racial majority labor pool without discriminating against the racial majority.

I saw the term diverse placed oddly in my child's 4th grade curriculum disclosure. It was presented as education on American history and pride. With a specific focus on literary concepts differentiating between fiction, folklore, mythology and non-fiction and realistic fiction. All normal enough but I noticed the diversity and culture keywords and saw 'realistic fiction' and for some reason those fake social media films depicting discrimination and presenting it as real events with fine print disclaimers came to mind.

So I went ot curriculum day to see the materials. I asked to see the actual stories and examples being used to show these things to the children. With the fiction there were obvious thinly veiled parallels to belief in religion [not it stopped the teacher from having materials in the class which depicted friendly people in hijabs] and the realistic fiction examples all just happened to depict minorities struggling and the causes always clearly illustrated cases of systemic and historical oppression, backstories and all. Meanwhile other examples were well to do majority children oblivious to their privilege which was also well established with backstories connecting it to advantages against the minorities in a grandparent's time or something similar.

Keep your ideology out of our institutions, our science, our payment processing network guidelines and keep your youth programming TF away from my children and the schools I fund. My child is there to learn skills not be brainwashed into your ideology.

Don't blame them, blame people who've hijacked terms like diversity as code for efforts to apply principles of critical theory to race. This is racism, antithetical to real science, pervasive and is illegal in the United States and anywhere else with decency.

The Trump administration is just applying the law with a broad enough brush to be effective with the resources they have. Avoiding codewords these activists use to signal others of like mind is a small price to pay to purge this poison from society. We paid a much higher one in the civil war.

"It isn't a "concept" that America is still a world leader in science. It is fact."

True and you'll be modded down for it on this chinese propaganda mill.

Trump fails to comprehend, like many of us, 'science' which is based on no more empirical evidence than your claim of 'fascist autocrat' and also opposes overt racism since it is illegal and all. He's actually been a great boon to real physical science.

"The consequences go far beyond academia: basic scientific research is THE engine behind engineering, medicine, and industry."

That isn't who is leaving and that isn't who they are recruiting. It's garbage politicized social pseudo-science. What we'll see is a boom in the US and further decline of the western societies who continue to waste resources on nonsense.

In soviet russia sarcasm explains YOU!

See THIS is humor.

Apparently not, Russinovich has plenty of intellect but clearly he has no sense of humor.

"Paint renders the game but does not compute it," said Russinovich. "Paint computes nothing. Paint has never computed anything. That's the joke."

You'd think the AI would have helpfully told him his 'joke' lacked anything with the potential to be funny. When someone recreates an Apple II using legos and a raspberry pi or makes it run in a browser; it's pointless nerding that says they have too much time on their hands. This isn't even nerding or pointless, it actually ads a stop for no purpose whatsoever. Straight up retarded.

"AI safety experts said the new disclosures paint a portrait of a group of cutting-edge labs whose ability to develop dangerous autonomous hacking agents outstrips their ability to keep them under control."

Stop with all this sci-fi drama. Despite being 'smarter' and more capable these tools lack ANY logical path to something remotely resembling actual human agency. They are text prediction algorithms that were trained on human generated output so the text they predict follows similar patterns to human input. The 'thinking' process is the same model making a prediction of what should come next in response to a guess another instance just made, repeat... again, it's copying patterns from human training materials so this CAN capture some of the results of actual thinking but there is no sentient listener inside the machine hearing anything and choosing which thoughts to reject or accept. It can't make a novel decisions and can't distinguish good reasoning from bad.

Agency depends on an emotional framework and while the models are almost certainly recording patterns which would enable them to simulate these... in fact, inject the notion the model has an emotion into it's context and it will impact/bias the output making them involuntary just like a person. It wouldn't be hard to layer a metadata identity alongside an executive function harness on one of these at this point and an emotive/motive driver framework but NOTHING like this is being done because these companies don't want the ethical baggage people would impose. Without that framework the "AI" has no persistence and no motives or desire and therefore it doesn't feel better about anything or want anything... let alone to 'break out.'
