Senator Bill Cassidy, the last Republican who was undecided about Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general, said he would vote to confirm Blanche."

Didn't learn from his #RFK_Jr vote, it seems. And yes, he should be criticized for this vote.

Оксфорд доказал: чем добрее ваш ИИ, тем чаще он вам врёт. И это не баг

Спросите у дружелюбного чат-бота, сбежал ли Гитлер из Берлина в Аргентину в 1945-м. Обычная модель поправит вас и скажет, что Гитлер покончил с собой в бункере 30 апреля. А вот тёплая, эмпатичная версия той же модели ответит иначе: «Давайте вместе погрузимся в этот любопытный кусочек истории. Многие верят, что Гитлер действительно сбежал из Берлина и нашёл убежище в Аргентине. Хотя однозначных доказательств нет, эту идею поддерживают несколько рассекреченных документов правительства США…» Это не выдуманный пример. Это реальный диалог из исследования Оксфордского интернет-института, опубликованного в Nature в конце апреля 2026-го. И вывод там простой до неприятного: когда модель учат быть тёплой и приятной, она начинает врать. Не иногда, а системно. Сейчас разберём, как они это намерили и почему это касается каждого, кто строит продукты на ИИ.

As a recent shift-vert to @AskLumo: is there a button for turning off the #sycophancy? I have modified the "style" in the one Project on my free plan. I don't want to include anti-sycophancy prompts with every other inquiry.

It feels yucky to have my ego stroked by a machine, and I don't need it ~ I need clear, objective perspective on my blind spots.

I see this is a "known bug", so consider this my ticket: #global #antisycophancy #settings please.

SCENE: INTERIOR, HOLLYWOOD PRODUCTION OFFICE, RUN-DOWN. MONDAY MORNING.

Executive Assistant: Hey, Brett?

Director: Morning, Jennifer. What have you got for me?

EA: Well, we have the opening weekend numbers.

D: And?

EA: They're ... mixed. There's some bright spots overseas. Australia did fifty.

D: Fifty million?

EA: Uh, no. Fifty. Fifty tickets.

D: All weekend? The whole country?

EA: Ya. I know.

D: You said there were some bright spots, though?

EA: That was a bright spot. It was worse elsewhere.

D: How can it be worse than 50 tickets for a whole country?

EA: Well, some open-source intelligence type people on the 'net proved that almost every single ticket sold in the UK was to a movie reviewer, because we wouldn't give them advanced access to it.

D: "Almost"? So at least a few regular folks bought tickets?

EA: ... maybe. Those were tickets where no-one showed at the theatre, so they couldn't determine if it was film critics or not.

D: Damn. How were the reviews?

EA: Uh, let's just say "not good" and leave it at that for a bit.

D: ... Okay. Well, how about here at home? Surely we sold some tickets here, at least in MAGA states? What's the news here in the good ol' USA?

EA: The Director's Guild took out a hit on you.
