  • Musk probably heard about “synthetic data” training, which is where you use machine learning to create thousands of things that are typical-enough to be good training data. Microsoft uses it to take documents users upload to Office365, train the ML model, and then use that ML output to train an LLM so they can technically say “no, your data wasn’t used to train an LLM.” Because it trained the thing that trained the LLM.

    However, you can’t do that with LLM output and stuff like… History. WTF evidence and documents are the basis for the crap he wants to add? The hallucinations will just compound because who’s going to cross-check this other than Grok anyway?

    If you want to get weird, there’s an astrologer named Nick Dagan Best that wrote a book about the US and 80-ish year cycles that follow the 7th planet in our solar system.

    It’s called “UranUSA”. I seriously think he might have just come up with the title and worked backwards.






  • I think you meant to finish that the inter-agency is notoriously bad at communicating and informing each other. Yes, that’s true, but unless the OP situation plans to identify themselves as the FBI with fake badges, credentials, and possibly even paperwork that the subject’s lawyer can corroborate, it’s not going to go well.

    Might make some good fiction. IRL would make for a lengthy prison term.





  • These people are all coworkers in career LEO positions.

    You think one group of 20 dudes have Kevlar vests and their sidearms at home and just pitch up at a court house like it’s a shift at a Denny’s? These people have desks and a locker room somewhere where they see each other without masks. They know each other well before the masks go on.


  • Its not like these people just start their day off from home. This isn’t some 9-5 office job.

    They go to an office and park their cars (probably trucks) in the same lot, they kit up in a locker room and spend an hour shooting the shit with all their bros, and then talk about who is wearing what subtle things so they can tell Jenkins from Thompson at a distance. They know each other. They hang out at each other’s houses on the weekends. Their kids play together. They know who is supposed to be there that day. They have a game plan as to who does what. They chit chat about music and guns and the weather and cars and TV shows quietly in the downtime.

    These people are not you. They can tell when someone else just shows up. They are organized when required, idiosyncratic about key details when needed, and hierarchical. An outsider only gets a pass when a CO tells them the outsider is OK.
