Say she does get caught in a lie. Someone asks her "Does the President have dementia" and she says "No, he does not have dementia." Then it comes out a year later that the President did have dementia after all.

I think the scandal about the President having dementia will far overshadow his press secretary going to bat for him in a radio interview.

Yeah, what needle are they trying to thread? Seems like the stakes require them convincingly selling the lie, rather than being coy.

Yeah I think it's definitely more that they're treating it like the same kind of question as "did President Biden gently caress his cat" or "does President Biden have a racist artifact in his house" wherein taking the time to acknowledge the question by denying it would be itself a bad idea, but again, a lot of people are already saying he has dementia, because of the many instances where he has been shown on video clearly having dementia, so the time for doing that is pretty clearly long past

Reminds me of some factchecker account smugly tweeting, "No, Hillary and Bill Clinton did not do cannibalism with a gang leader named barbecue," and you can tell Bill ordered that up to be spread so all the seals could clap and holler at that instead of, you know, the mounting evidence he was on Little Saint James.

I don't know what gave Psaki the secret sauce to be smugly condescending, but she clearly had it and it's obvious in her absence.

Their comms strategy hasn't changed but without the right person selling it, it doesn't come off like epic girl boss clapbacks.

Psaki on Monday blasted critics who compared her to McDaniel, who, along with dozens of others, were fired from their jobs at the RNC after the Trump campaign carried out a massive overhaul.

The former Biden aide said that “some in the right-wing ecosystem” were pushing the comparison, which was out of place since her experience in politics was “paired with honesty, and with good faith,” whereas McDaniel was devoted to “service to one man.”

so men become good because girlfriends teach them how to be good and these perfect men just ditch those life changing girlfriends for hotter ones? am i understanding the logic on this right?

It's like the inverse of the Nice Guy/Friendzone memes from the old days, back before Incel was coined as a term.
"Nice Guy puts in all this time and energy to lift a woman up, show her she's beautiful and deserving of love, and she immediately goes off to date some jockbro who wouldn't have given her the time of day before."

...And then I guess she teaches him how to fold socks, leading him to dump her for someone hotter, thus perpetuating the cycle.

The fact that Bill Clinton is still out there campaigning for the Dems and no one's questioning that on a basic level is why I think canceling isn't real. It's fake. There's nothing to it.

lol at the third paragraph in that article:
https://gothamist.com/news/nypd-to-test-scanners-with-ai-tech-to-crack-down-on-guns-in-nyc-subway

quote:

Adams displayed scanners manufactured by Evolv, a Massachusetts-based weapons detection company that is being investigated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Federal Trade Commission for allegedly overstating its technology's capabilities.

Their company seem to revolve around computer vision-equipped metal detectors. One of their products is this ML object detection system specific to guns:

quote:

Visual Gun Detection

Evolv Visual Gun Detection™ adds another layer of security by leveraging AI on your security cameras to identify brandished firearms, helping safeguard your premises from the threshold and extending protection beyond.

and they have these metal detectors that, in this promo video, seem to also have CV capabilities. They have videos highlighting a couple prototype installs in schools: https://www.evolvtechnology.com/res...urity-screening and a different promo video:
https://evolv.showpad.com/share/Fdk2ngX6Sf7o9Vd7WqCXT. In the video in the second link, the system flags the woman's right hand with a box, but it does it before she even passes through the metal detector.

So my guess is that they trained a NN object detector specifically on images of guns, and images of people with concealed weapons, and the metal detector is there to weed out false positives.
