What an incredibly misleading headline holy shit
It’s journalistic malpractice. Once there was an article that said “AI gets more covertly racist as it gets smarter” and that is a clear intentional framing to make racists look good. Headlines are everything.
No investigation [of the text below the headline], no right to speak [about the topic].

That’s fine 😊
What a fucking traitor.
But like what is he afraid of? Someone hacks a teleprompter and he goes Ron Burgundy?
i’m sure the people running an event simply don’t want the disruption. this is primarily a fair and normal “hey we’ll kick you out” message, and it’s only news because of racism and celebrity.
