I think I've uncovered the next Turing test for AI video: writing. I've tried this prompt dozens of times on every model: "man writes 'hi' in chalk on blackboard" None can do it. Veo 2 (below) gets the closest. It's actually frustrating to watch!

Thread: Russia's version of multipolarity, tested by the downing of an Azerbaijani plane. 1/9 The incident with the downed Azerbaijani flight is a stark illustration of what "multipolarity" means in the Russian worldview:

Het Vlaams regeerakkoord lijkt inderdaad vaag. Maar als je het helemaal leest, zie je sterke en verontrustende lijnen Met de bril op van jonge en kwetsbare gezinnen, vrouwen en kinderopvang valt dat des te meer op. 1/

"There is one big downside to Car-free Sunday: it's only once a year. So much joy and health and openness should be spread evenly throughout the year. Once a year is like Christmas: the exception confirms the rule. Once a month is a habit—the new normal." brusselstimes.com/brussels/12370…

De lage-emissiezone in Brussel is de inzet geworden van een pijnlijk politiek spel. Drie Franstalige partijen hebben achter onze rug besloten de invoering uit te stellen. Dat heeft voor een diepe vertrouwensbreuk gezorgd. Het voelt als een mes in de rug. (1/2)

Very glad that four children from #Gaza, who are suffering from tumours, hearing impairment and respiratory disorders, have arrived in #Belgium to receive specialised medical care. They are accompanied by 12 family members. They had been evacuated to Egypt prior to the closure of the Rafah crossing. @WHO supported the process alongside partners. We are grateful to the governments of Belgium and Egypt as well as @eu_echo and @ThePCRF for their support. Still, over 10,000 patients in Gaza need medical evacuations. We continue to call for an urgent scale up of medical evacuations through all possible routes.

Modern Turing test

Young people are excited about Kamala. TikTok is blowing up! x.com/piper4missouri…

FLASHBACK: Nikki Haley in January: "The first party to retire its 80 year old candidate is going to be the one who wins this election."

Extraordinary.

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

#FourGreens #GetGreensElected - delivered! Thanks every voter who helped us there #generalelection2024

The Verstka.ru publication recorded an interview with a Russian occupier who fled to the West. “We really are fucking orcs”: the story of a grenade launcher deserter from “Storm Z”, who is now seeking political asylum. He told them what is happening in these 1/18

Exciting news! 🌟 After two weeks of intense negotiations, a vote was held among our Volt members. And we are thrilled to announce that our 5 Volt MEPs will join the @GreensEFA group in the European Parliament for the upcoming 5 years! 🇪🇺

Dit wordt een kabinet vol paradoxen. Ik tel er ten miste tien:

Wat een verschil, dit was pas afgelopen 19 januari.. Nu al heimwee naar Dijkgraaf.

Als Bart De Wever effectief premier zou worden, Jan Jambon federaal vice-premier (of minister) en Annick De Ridder Vlaams minister kleurt het plaatje opnieuw heel Antwerps. N-VA blijft meer dan ooit Nieuw-Vlaamse Antwerpenaren …

Wat @hildevautmans in @tijd zegt is pertinent onwaar. Ofwel liegt ze, ofwel doet ze haar job niet goed. In beide gevallen een trieste zaak. 1) Er bestaat al lang een plicht om CSAM offline te halen. Dat is illegaal dus dat mag sowieso niet. tijd.be/ondernemen/tec…

Dit is toch je reinste onzin? Hoe heb je dit voorstel mee onderhandeld als je vandaag deze vergelijking maakt? In het huidige #chatcontrol voorstel kennen we aan *iedereen* een drugshond toe, die *elke* valies controleert. Dat is niet "in grote lijnen" hetzelfde. Hemeltergend.

For a little while now I have wanted to write about the Russian turtle tanks. These weird and unwieldy beasts provide a discrete solution to a contemporary battlefield problem - generating successful offensive operations. 1/10 🧵🇺🇦🇺🇦
