.@SecScottBessent: "It is humans who are responsible, not the AI. The Hugging Face incident โ that is the responsibility of the OpenAI management, not a bunch of agents... These labs need to take responsibility for themselves."
@MonetaryWonk Not meaning to be a troll but I think itโs a little premature to call Greenland a success. What even is the deal here?
Our assessment of Venezuela may also change in the fullness of time, though certainly seems positive so far
@venturetwins It's #4: they need help to get people to come together to solve this collective action problem collectively. They see a problem they can't solve on their own.
@DanielSLoeb1@Jesse_Livermore Shocking that the losers in a winner take all system are the ones who criticize that system (even if their parents were winners)
@ConvexityCowboy@IhabHassane They blew up reproductive facilities that militants had never been within a mile of. (See UN report on genocide determination).
Seems clear theyโre trying to lower the Palestinian population.
This article may be the most shameless and dangerous piece of disinformation I've read this year.
Genuinely sad to see a journalist throw away her career to boost one of the most dangerous campaigns of fraud in scientific history.
Quick fact checks:
1) The article claims EcoHealth Alliance was debarred by Trump's HHS, but it was done by Biden's HHS before Trump's inauguration.
2) The article claims that a lab origin of COVID is a conspiracy theory despite the fact that all US intel agencies, WHO, and the majority of polled virologists say it's a serious hypothesis requiring further data. FBI, CIA, DOE, and German intel all now favor lab origin. Even Andersen and Garry admit lab origin is a legitimate hypothesis when under oath (they should be brought back to Congress).
3) The article exclusively quotes scientists who were caught committing fraud on COVID origins. Andersen and Garry privately believed a lab origin was "so friggin likely" but published it was "not plausible" after meeting with the most powerful western funders of the lab. They were rewarded for this uniquely dangerous act of fraud via CREID.
4) Andersen attempted to delete early COVID seqs from a US preprint server "without leaving a trace" on behalf of Chinese researchers. Imo, this act of scientific sabotage elevates Andersen to the level of a serious threat to US national security and biosecurity. Between this action and the confirmed ghostwriting fraud, he should be permanently debarred from US taxpayer funds.
It's embarrassing that this was published in 2026. Disinformation to bolster threats to US national security and biosecurity is a serious matter @emilylmullin.
@AndrewJLowry@dorkmo@TylerAStepke Except I think the evidence is largely forensic and circumstantial in nature. The evidence is not necessarily scientific. Why would a scientific journal publish that sort of information?
@AndrewJLowry@dorkmo@TylerAStepke Is it beyond you to consider there are other types of evidence aside from scientific evidence that may be relevant to the subject? Are scientists the right people with the right skills to investigate something that people may actively be covering up?
