A Computer Can Now Write Your College Essay — Maybe Better Than You Can

We fed ChatGPT, OpenAI’s new natural language tool, college essay questions for the 2022-2023 academic year. Here’s what it wrote.

OpenAI debuted its latest language model, called ChatGPT, to the public last week. With a simple log in, anyone can talk to the AI for free, and, unlike its predecessor InstructGPT, ChatGPT can answer follow-up questions, admit mistakes, reject inappropriate requests and challenge inaccuracies. The buzzy new AI has already inspired a flurry of articles about what it can—and can’t—do, from creating a new language for slime beings called Glorp, to detecting vulnerabilities in code, to writing a biblical verse about how to remove a peanut butter sandwich from a VCR.

FTX fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried BEGS Bahamas judge to grant him bail because he’s too ‘depressed and vegan for jail’

A Bahamian judge is allowing Sam Bankman-Fried’s parents to leave court in the middle of his arraignment hearing to retrieve anti-depressants, Adderall and Zyrtec.

Bankman-Fried is accused of one of the ‘biggest financial frauds in American history’ – defrauding investors out of $1.8billion by convincing them his trading platform FTX was safe to use.

He is begging for mercy – asking for $250,000 cash bond – and claiming he can’t be thrown in jail because he is depressed and follows a vegan diet.

Cambridge Dictionary updates definition of ‘woman’

Nope. No mental illness here.

Cambridge Dictionary has updated its definition of ‘woman’ to include anyone who “identifies as female” regardless of their sex at birth.

The online dictionary recently added a supplementary definition of a ‘woman’ which includes transgender people.

It now states that as well as definitions including an “adult female human being”, a woman can also be “an adult who lives and identifies as female though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth”.

Russian man had a dream about Zelensky – and was fined £390

A Russian blogger has been fined for “discrediting the Russian military” after describing a vivid dream he had about Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president.

Ivan Losev, 26, of Chita, in Russia’s far-eastern Zabaykalsky region, was unaware his Instagram social media account was being monitored by officers from the country’s Federal Security Service.

He was fined 30,000 rubles (£390) after a local court convicted him of being in breach of a law that cracks down on dissent against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Shocking moment female-to-male transgender ice hockey player is tackled to the ground and CONCUSSED by much larger male-to-female rival at controversial NHL-backed tournament

A female-to-male transgender hockey player was left concussed after being flung to the floor by a much larger male-to-female trans opponent during a controversial NHL-backed tournament.

Danny Maki was knocked down and left concussed following what appeared to be an accidental rough hit at the Team Trans Ice Hockey draft in Middleton, Wisconsin, late last month.

The incident has only just been reported by Quilette magazine, whose journalist Jonathan Kay suggested that the two-day tournament had been subjected to a woke cover-up.

A secessionist Sikh group is pressing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to disavow calls from India’s envoy for Canada to crack down on funding of a movement to create a separate state in Punjab.

RCMP offers $100,000 reward after 10 months with no leads on violent Coastal GasLink attack

After 10 months without any leads as to who led a violent, coordinated attack on a pipeline work camp last February, the RCMP is hoping that the promise of a $100,000 reward will loosen some local tongues.

“I do believe there are people out there who know something, and I do believe this reward will entice those people,” B.C. RCMP superintendent Jim Elliott said at a Monday press conference.

If this was the work of white supremacist truckers the RCMP would have arrested everyone and have commenced sorting out their undercover agents and informants from the guilty guy.

Man Terrorizes Everyone at Christmas Tree Lighting by Screaming ‘Allahu Akbar’

It happened recently in the Italian town of Sora. As workers were putting up Christmas lights in the town center, a man ventured by and began screaming, “Allahu akbar.” Everyone present was terrified, contravening the American media dictum that “Allahu akbar” is an entirely benign phrase that shouldn’t worry anyone. How did these Italians get so Islamophobic?

Calgary-based TC Energy said on Sunday it has not yet determined the cause of the Keystone oil pipeline leak last week in the United States, while also not giving a timeline as to when the pipeline will resume operation.

TC shut the pipeline after more than 14,000 barrels of crude oil spilled into a creek in Kansas on Wednesday, making it one of the largest U.S. crude spills in nearly a decade.

Canadian Disabled Man’s Euthanasia Request Due to Poverty Approved

Death is increasingly seen as the answer to a variety of woes in Canada, with its euthanasia libertinism running truly amuck. This includes veterans being offered euthanasia for PTSD and a nursing home patient lethally injected because she did not want to be isolated during a COVID lockdown. There are also cases in which people ask to die because they can’t access prompt medical care from Canada’s socialized healthcare system, and one in which death was offered to a disabled woman rather than a stairs chair lift.

The Trudeau legacy…
