Audiences for pro-Trump content have fallen from their heights and, for some creators, reached new lows, data show. Views for many of his greatest allies are dropping. @stuartathompson nytimes.com/2026/07/31/us/po…

When I went to sell my home, I rebuffed real estate agents and hired a chatbot. Here's how that went (gift article) nytimes.com/2026/05/28/techn…

usually if I appear in the Times, it's under my byline. sometimes, though, I pop up in @stuartathompson's work. His latest on how we (mostly he) tried to use A.I. in lieu of a realtor to sell our home, is a fun one: nytimes.com/2026/05/28/techn…

“They’re trying to spread political messages and give an illusion of a consensus. Flooding the zone here with tons and tons of videos seems geared to give a false sense of a majority opinion.” nytimes.com/2026/04/17/busin…

community notes are quite powerful when they actually appear. I’m surprised there aren’t more people gaming the system to get their POV to appear
Community Notes just got faster ⚡
Starting today, notes will appear an average of 1.5 hours faster, and as much as 3.5 hours faster in some cases. Since information travels quickly on X, this means notes will be seen by many more people at the time they read a post.
How it works: We overhauled the note scoring architecture, moving from a batch update process to real-time streaming of note score updates to serving backends. On top of this, we’re now also able to score notes more frequently.

hoped for something stronger on AI. instead this cracks the door open. seems AI will be co-writing scripts and studios will likely spend the next period training better models using WGA work
The details of the new Writers Guild contract are out. We won:
• Success-based residuals
• Strong limitations on A.I.
• Minimum writers room staffing
• Guaranteed compensation and 13-week minimums for Comedy/Variety writers in streaming

AI has the potential to destroy everything, so in the interest of safety we should develop it as quickly as possible with no rules whatsoever
Count me as someone who believes AI should not be regulated
We need to make progress on it as fast as possible for many reasons (including national security). And the track record on regulation is that it has unintended consequences and kills competition/innovation, despite best intentions.
We’ve enjoyed a golden age of innovation on software and the internet largely due to it not being regulated. AI should do the same. The best protection is to decentralize it and open source it to let the cat out of the bag.
