"In 2016, Trump dumbfounded prognosticators, who assumed the conservative base was motivated by conservatism, by adopting a series of heterodox positions without suffering the customary penalty. The apparent lesson was that Republican voters cared more about confrontational affect than policy substance."

Is Jonathan Chait aware of the conservative media landscape?

"AI learns by finding patterns in enormous quantities of data, but first that data has to be sorted and tagged by people, a vast workforce mostly hidden behind the machines. In Joe’s case, he was labeling footage for self-driving cars — identifying every vehicle, pedestrian, cyclist, anything a driver needs to be aware of — frame by frame and from every possible camera angle. It’s difficult and repetitive work. A several-second blip of footage took eight hours to annotate, for which Joe was paid about $10."

Jamie Reed told a common transphobic joke to Jonathan Chait, and he passed it along in his article as something that had actually happened.

Can’t wait for Chait’s next big exposé, about the doctor who treats depression with free tickets to Pagliacci.
