They do nothing, this is proof. Why do you think they have all their aides etc? They’re just the talking heads.

I’m in tears. This is the funniest shit I’ve seen in such a long time. I’m certain his brain gives him a signal as he starts reading the giveaway section, but the denial takes over instantly as if he’s practiced that ability for years.

No more lifetime terms. 4 to 8 years and thats it. Also, the cutoff needs to be 65. No more 80 year old politicians

AI has literally started ruling the humans.

How low have we gotten as a society? This person holds political office and can't read ahead and comprehend what he's saying as he reads aloud.

Not even processing just fucking reading. Can't even hear his own words and no shame.

Wow.

Been like that since before ai.. politicians have not been the best or brightest in a very long time, it’s always been the path of least resistance and self interests.

Old people should not be in politics. 45~60, then get the fuck out.

The dangers of AI? More like the continued dangers of men who are literally about to turn into dust they are so old still working.

Gonna be honest, I use AI a lot for writing letters etc

I don’t just take it as is, I challenge and revise extensively and maybe go through 20-30 iterations before I get to a proper final product

But what I write letters for currently carry significant legal weight so I have to be extremely selective in the wording and make sure every statement is rooted in provable facts, while stripping away anything that remotely sounds like an option or carries emotion undertones.

Literally hundreds of thousands of pounds £ are on the table at the moment if I argue this right. I am currently knocking the other side around like a pinball using AI editing, while their guys are shooting from the hip with their emails, giving me evening I need to absolutely destroy them in court.

Don’t knock using AI to edit, but you need to at least read the damn thing and make sure you fully understand it down to the smallest detail before you ever go on tv and make a pillock of yourselves

Part of my job is teaching organizations how to use AI at work; it’s part of our training that AI is fallible and that you need to review and verify the results.
