Hi folks! This is Thinkwing Radio with Mike Honig; I’m Andrew Ferguson. In light of the (semi-)recent release of Grok, Twitter’s new generative text model, we thought it would be interesting to listen back to our April 19th show which features two articles about the future of this form of so-called “AI”. We’ll be back next week with our trademark analysis of new news you may have missed. Until then, enjoy!
Thinkwing Radio with Mike Honig (@ThinkwingRadio) is now on Wednesdays at 11AM (CT) on KPFT FM-HD2, Houston’s Community Station. You can also hear the show:

SIGNOFF QUOTE[s]:
“In April, [John Kelly] said…: ‘If lawmakers do not like the laws they’ve passed and we are charged to enforce, then they should have the courage and skill to change the laws. Otherwise they should shut up and support the men and women on the front lines.’ ’’…
“…There is … reason to find [John Kelly’s] appointment depressing. It contributes to the continuing decay of American civil-military relations. Those of us who were relieved to see James Mattis as secretary of defense, H. R. McMaster as national-security adviser, and Kelly himself as secretary of Homeland Security, felt that way partly out of appreciation for the virtues of all three men, but also, very largely, out of relief that their sanity might contain their boss’s craziness. But it is inappropriateto have so many generals in policy-making positions; it is profoundly wrong to have a president regard the military as a constituency, and it is corrupting to have the Republican Party, such as it is, act as though generals have if not a monopoly then at least dominant market share in the qualities of executive ability and patriotism. It is unwise to have higher-level positions in the hands of officials who have openly expressed disdain for Congress—now a dangerously weak branch of government.
