... to bring DU folks what AI has to say about politics in 2025 and through the days ahead until we have regained our control of the House in 2026 and beyond.
For non-AI users, let me suggest that I'll "ask" AI a question or two for fellow DU users.
So far, I have not found a topic that AI has failed to answer, many of which have been beyond my belief.
For example, electrical problems are among the most challenging car problems to solve. I recently had a problem with my 2003 truck's directionals not working. I took it to my garage, which has been servicing all of our cars without fail over the years.
They called me the next day and asked me if I had done anything with the car's electrical circuits, like fooling with trailer lights or switching to a new Bluetooth radio to work hands-free with our phones. The answer was no and no... nothing.
So I thought, "What the hell, let's ask AI what it thought," given the symptoms I was experiencing. I posed the question, and 30 seconds or less later, AI generated a list of possible issues with a troubleshooting guide to diagnose and eliminate each one step by step.
I emailed the mechanics the troubleshooting list, and they called back less than an hour later and said, "Your car is ready, and where in hell did you find the troubleshooting list?" I told the AI, and they said, "A what!"
One more: I have been researching my dad's military records from WW II. He had told me that he was stationed in 1943-44 in a jungle radio station "20 some miles up the Amazon river," intercepting German U-boat radio communicationsyears of digging through military records with no luck. With the same description ("20-some miles up the Amazon river"
, AI found the answer immediately. With lots of additional information that matched up to the records I got from military records years before.
More later!
