    The push to write in Biden on the ballot didn’t go completely smoothly. The weekend before New Hampshire’s primary, thousands of voters in the state received robocalls that used deep faked audio of the president in an attempt to dissuade them from turning out.

    Whatever your thoughts on electoral politics are, this shit right here is such a terrifying prospect for the future…

      I’m not sure if AI is going to revolutionize anything good, but it’s certainly going to revolutionize election interference.

          I am fooled by imageai posts about 80% of the time. I don’t know how to not be, but it just makes me distrustful of everything

              Judge Doom wouldn’t put himself, voluntarily, in the dip.

                Judge Doom is what happens when you bip around in history like a hare-brained child with no regard for multi-universal consequences and the strain it takes on the squishy human psyche. Apparently, the loss of his dearest Clara and their children was enough to make the ol’ Doc snap right to his core.
