@luis_in_brief I think the magic of Wikipedia is not the -pedia but the wiki-.

We need a dedicated chatbot that uses WMF content as its training data, and has an interface to both read live data and write to it.

Good point Ben. And there’s a delicate balance of giving people something good and unique vs. something they’re familiar with and will use

Remember, nobody can force you to use the Fediverse, so our tools have to meet people where they are.

It’s like weaning an addict off of cigarettes, or sugar.

@luis_in_brief at the Wikimedia Hackathon in Prague in 2019, I developed a two-way editing structure for Alexa. So, I could ask Alexa a question, and if something was missing or incorrect, I could tell it, and it would edit the Wikipedia page it pulled the answer from.

@evan@cosocial.ca It's almost guaranteed he will be impeached by the house but impeachment basically means nothing now days. Senate isn't going to prosecute. He's probably going to serve out his full term and then be arrested, convicted, and sent to prison in 2029.

@evan I did search for myself just a few minutes ago. “Bradley AND Kuhn” & “Brad AND Kuhn” return no results.

Kuhn is a more common surname than most realize. Unsurprisingly, ∃ in the records some Kuhn Foundation that Epstein gave money to.

Kuhn being more-common-than-people-realize was a top-10 reason I recently changed spelling of my surname to Kühn. Hoping to end the incessant “You related to Pete Kuhn?” “My uncle, but I'm sure it's a different Pete.”. At worst when I lived in Cincinnati.

We plan to buy a cheap Leaf or something similar soon.
