@AdamBerinsky You married the people! You walk all over the place in the weather! (I was being slightly facetious about the food but it HAS gotten better). You're us!

Multiple threads this morning with lots of replies being like "why do people even live in Boston," and if your answers aren't the people, the weather, and the food I'm not really sure what to tell you.

🚨 New in Nature+Science!🚨 AI chatbots can shift voter attitudes on candidates & policies, often by 10+pp 🔹Exps in US Canada Poland & UK 🔹More “facts”→more persuasion (not psych tricks) 🔹Increasing persuasiveness reduces "fact" accuracy 🔹Right-leaning bots=more inaccurate

Anyone planning on filing for the Anthropic lawsuit? I saw one of my books in the database list and not sure what to do.

Incredible parallels in this 2014 Berinsky & @GabeLenz paper. Politicians didn't stand up to Joe McCarthy in large part because they incorrectly inferred McCarthy/ism was extremely popular. Not standing up to McCarthy was a kind of 1950s Popularism link in reply (m*sk algo bad)
