World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

The word President implies authority. No, Trump is not an authoritarian. Yes, he has displayed authoritarian tendencies. Trump is not Hitler. Take a second to google ‘worlds best leaders’ and you see a lots of people who were never leading entire countries but just led culture, like Ghandi. It’s reasonable to conclude that most humans do not view any political leader as best or the greatest when they hold authority over other people. A leader is only considered good when they don’t have power over the population.
Just ask ChatGPT, look up the definition of the word, use google AI … put in any effort to verify your assumptions or false information is true. And type behavior like Nixon, yes. He does not fit the definition of an authoritarian.
Here, since you need what the definition is. I'm not sure how you don't think trump isn't authoritarian. He's a fucking wanna be dictator, and he's consolidating his powers more and more.
lol although the San Francisco based OpenAI Inc. removed their company policy claiming to be politically unbiased last month, the current AI and crypto czar, Angel investor for Facebook, Uber, and Air BnB, has repeatedly accused OpenAI Inc of being liberal. For the above reasons, it’s most logical to assume ChatGPT will not become TrumpGPT without significant and obvious ‘noise.’
The AI chats don't seem to give a straight answer on ANY issue. They always give a waffle-y answer that tries to account for 'both sides'
Well, that’s how unbiased thinking works. Very rarely is there one truly ‘right side’ but most human experiences have sides where both sides have benefits and downfalls. It’s bigots, the hateful and prejudice who think the world is divided into ‘good’ and ‘bad’ people.
Sure, but that makes it unhelpful as a source if it always picks the null hypothesis (for lack of a better way to describe what it's doing)
Basically anyone who is a fed could have seen from 3 decades away that the gov wants AI for weapons. While Open AI is involved as a government contractor (which introduces new regulations), the Feds have been poaching ‘ML/AI pros from places like Google and meta for the past 5 years. There are a shocking number of ‘super computer’ engineers working at the labs. I disagree that National security is divided among parties. It’s called ‘the mission’ because it’s a big ominous thing beyond laws. I love working with the DOE/DoD because you aren’t allowed to talk about politics at work. Can be fired for it. That’s great! Keeps things way less political.
Chat gpt it's not a source lol
It’s a free brain. You can do the research and come back but ChatGPT seems smarter than most people.
It's a plagiarism machine it doesn't think. It's not smart, it's not a brain. But you're correct in your statement that it's "smarter than most people" but that's not a good thing.
From chatGPT: “Donald Trump is often described as having authoritarian tendencies, but whether he can be classified as a "true authoritarian leader" is debated. While he has demonstrated some characteristics that align with authoritarianism—such as a disregard for democratic norms, an emphasis on strong, centralized leadership, and a penchant for undermining checks and balances—he has not fully implemented the institutional changes or widespread repression typically associated with authoritarian regimes.
Key authoritarian tendencies in Trump's leadership style include:
However, several factors complicate the argument that Trump is a "true" authoritarian:
So, while Trump exhibited several authoritarian behaviors, he did not fully embrace the comprehensive, systematic authoritarian rule seen in other countries or historical figures. Whether this was due to institutional constraints or his own leadership limitations is a subject of ongoing analysis.”
