More on the RFK, Jr. MAHA AI report. It gets worse (yes, of course that’s possible)
It seemed hard to believe this debacle could get worse, but it did. NOTUS reported in a follow-up article that several of the errors from the original report have been edited or removed, but in the process, administration officials have added new errors, including updated citations that “misinterpret scientific studies.” From the article:
One study NOTUS identified as misinterpreted in the original report was intended to support the claim that psychotherapy is more effective for children than medication for treating mental health concerns. That study was swapped out with a new “systematic overview” authored by psychologist Pim Cuijpers, who told NOTUS via email that MAHA’s new citation is also wrong. Cuijpers said his referenced study doesn’t cover psychiatric medications in children at all — the research was focused on adults. The citation is located in a section of the MAHA report titled, “American children are highly medicated — and it’s not working.”

This shit is everywhere: dentist’s offices, doctor’s offices, waiting rooms of all sorts, military bases and many other places. Sinclair Media - same. It’s destroying the fabric of our democracy.

Old rule in gambling: when the error is always in favor of the house, it ain’t an error.

One thing I am not seeing much coverage on:
The One, Big, Beautiful Bill contains a clause that effectively bans all U.S. states from regulating artificial intelligence for up to 10 years.
A blatant giveaway to the tech TRUMP financiers, and a step toward the time when an AI misbehaves and takes us all out inadvertently.

Pentagon Reporter Calls Out Hegseth on Fox News Over Media Crackdown: ‘He’s Embarrassed’
A veteran Pentagon correspondent used a Fox News appearance to savage Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for attempting to restrict media access at his department.
Barbara Starr, who spent more than 20 years as CNN’s Pentagon correspondent, claimed Hegseth is ending journalists’ access to certain areas at the Pentagon because he’s “embarrassed” by the chaos engulfing his time in the Trump administration.
