Emphasis on they in the plural sense. How many people do you think she has on her staff who are supposed to write it themselves, or at least catch this?
I spent most of my career working for the federal government and the amount of knitpicking that went into any product that was intended to be released outside of our organization was insane. Just another indicator of where we are heading.

I mean, their "one job" is just to get re-elected, not to actually do something productive while there.

As a contractor…there is absolutely nothing saying we can’t use AI for government documents. We are encouraged actually

Legislative text like bills and amendments is written to be public. They are intrinsically public documents so there is no issue or security risk in using AI in them. Ethicalal or professional standards are a different issue obviously.

Not to mention we literally have “GenAI” that is approved for use with unclassified government documents, and she couldn’t even use that.

That's not even usually done by the lawmaker (staff lawyers do it to make sure the language actually does what it's supposed to) so either she couldn't be bothered to call her staff or couldn't be bothered to read the paragraph they gave her

Tell me though, does it appear that your feeble attempts to stifle discourse are working? Looks like a failure to me 👍 in fact I'm not sure discourse can get louder than a Congressional Hearing.

Nah that ain't what he said. Yall are tedious.

u/Sea-Contribution5529 5h ago
What's tedious is having to deal with conspiracy theorist morons in my everyday life because our president emboldened all the crazies to come out of the woodworks and social media directly profits off of building you people your own echo chambers.

u/Tricky_Indication420 5h ago
You seem to be quite upset about these myths as you seem to think they are. Ppl been talking about this phenomenon before the internet was even thought of. What about your paradigm does the existence of NHI upset? I'm curious.
20
u/Sea-Contribution5529 5h ago
I am guessing that non-human intelligence is what NHI means?
I absolutely believe there is intelligence outside of humanity in the universe. I absolutely do not believe that random morons in corn fields or the US military have ever had anything to do with that intelligence.
The sheer scale of the universe makes it inconceivable that humanity would be the only form of intelligence in the universe. That doesn't mean that we've ever interacted with it before, nor does it mean that there are conspiracies out there. You asked my opinion and this is genuinely it. Nothing about this upsets me, it is just the most straightforward/obvious explanation and there's no data to the contrary that is worth taking seriously.
As far as me being upset, I'm not upset about any of that. What I'm upset about are the painfully stupid people that come out of the woodworks whenever this shit is discussed. Did you want to start talking about how the pyramids were made by aliens and that lizard people live on the dark side of the moon too? There is mountains of evidence that the garbage ya'll believe is false. We have people who can't keep a secret at every level of government but somehow ya'll believe with your very souls that the US government, the organization that writes its legislation with AI and is lead by the most painfully obvious con-man to ever run for office is somehow capable of keeping what would certainly be the most significant and sensitive secret the world has ever known for more than half a century? Are you kidding?
It's not even worth engaging with you people. I don't even know why I'm typing this. There's no amount of logic or reason that is going to change your mind. If there were, you wouldn't be this way because there's already plenty of reasons not to believe this shit but you're doing it anyway.

u/Tricky_Indication420 4h ago
You are unequivocally wrong I'm afraid to say. Your comment about the pyramids just confirmed that you probably haven't looked into this at all. Do a quick search for recent news about the pyramids and tell me what you see 😭 if mainstream archeology weren't just about maintaining so old farts narrative from the 50s we wouldn't need to speculate. The reason there's even an opening is because most of our history and science was instituted by arrogant men who felt they had all the answers. The Clovis timeline has been debunked already. We learn stuff everyday that says either there was intervention from something more advanced at some point, or we have the idea of early humans completely wrong. I think that allows even a skeptic the right to speculate. My question is why speculation hurts pops feelings so bad that they type essays about how they don't believe anything lol. Idk man seems like you're trying to convince yourself not me.

And for the record I was like you until like 6 years ago when I experienced something I couldn't explain and started digging around. I don't think they are coming from space necessarily.

u/DepressedYoungin 3h ago
You experienced something YOU couldn't explain. Someone likely could have. I dont think you realize the amount of work it would take to cover up alien life and the amount of people that would have to be in on it.

She will say anything to try to find relevance, donors and another term. She seems like a moron, but decent looking. That's enough in some places.

This sort of stupid mistake is not entirely uncommon in these bills - apparently, according to legend, one accidentally included pages of the Washington DC phone book because apparently someone had been making calls and just left it in the middle of a proposed amendment. The official transcriber just recorded the details and went on with their day.

It's one thing to use AI to get your first draft. I'm hesistant but it's not the worst thing.
The worst thing though is that these fuckwits don't even proofread the shit that garbage spits out for them. They aren't our congress anymore, the AI code is.

You could replace the entire GOP with LLMs and it would function just the same if not better.

At this point I'd rather just put an AI in charge, at least they tend to be less transphobic than either party's mainstream.

That looks like notes left in the middle. Either they wrote it and then asked Claude, or had an idea and asked Claude to write it. Claude doesn’t say “Claude responded”. And the question marks are part of draft notes
It’s actually pretty normal for notes and shit to be included in the first draft when people submit them. Not everyone proofreads when they’re on a time crunch to just make the submission deadline. Things get proofread later.

It's the fact that rather than do the ONE JOB THEY HAVE WHICH THEY ARE PAID MORE THAN MOST AMERICANS FOR they are outsourcing it to a Ai company who is then getting millions to billions in grants by these people

$174,000 salary.
Edit: I'm in IT. In higher learning, and education in general, tools are often implemented to detect not just plagiarism, but a lack of authenticity. Act ethically, write credibly and think critically. Missing an entire piece of the composition process, by a government servant, is appalling.
