Friday assorted links


1. Redux of my 2009 post on my preferred exile.  Mexico City now rates much higher, and Germany lower.  Madrid would be a serious choice, in the top few.  Even Rome falls under consideration.  And I want more money for the exile too, which price index shall we use?

2. “In the past three months of the 119th Congress, fully 25% of documents in the Congressional Record are AI-generated.”  Note that AI-generated text is about 30% more “progressive,” though that is showing up in the resolutions rather than substantive legislation.

3. The labor market consequences of rapid sectoral shifts.

4. Right now LLMs are “too altruistic” in the Ultimatum game.

5. Companies that should exist but don’t?

6. Piano bars and music popularity.  The market test speaks.

7. An Islamic perspective on Sirat.  And a very different view on the film.

8. USA fact of the day.

9. A subtle Straussian move?
