Author uses AI to write a book about AI, AI makes up quotations

The author Steven Rosenbaum decided to write a book about the Future of Truth in an era marked by artificial intelligence using Claude and ChatGPT, and in a shocking turn of events, the chatbots included at least six invented or inaccurately attributed quotations.

One such invented quotation displays the stereotypical em dash and "not X, but Y" patterns:

>Emotions aren’t just reactions to truth — they’re how we construct truth.

Why did Jace not become five-color as the Living Guildpact?

When Niv-Mizzet became the Living Guildpact, he was connected to all the plane's leylines, presumably gaining easy access to different colors of magic than his habitual Blue and Red. At the very least, certainly, his ability to employ the law magic of the Guildpact probably meant using some white mana. This connection is reflected in [[Niv-Mizzet, Guildpact]] and [[Niv-Mizzet, Supreme]] being five-color cards, whose color identity could also be symbolic of his leadership over the guilds, which cover all five colors.

However, [[Jace, the Living Guildpact]], despite having the same role, stayed in Blue, as his card demonstrates. Why did Jace stay in Blue when he became the Living Guildpact, even though Niv-Mizzet did not?

Looking for recent smartphones that support bootloader unlocking.

I'm looking for recent, ideally higher-end smartphones that either come with an unlocked bootloader (unlikely these days, I know) or at least, where it is easy to unlock the bootloader. I want to be able to remove features or apps that I don't like, so that (for instance) I don't need to get AI suggestions of what to write in every app. It seems to me that having a bootloader unlocked smartphone is the only real way of ensuring that some corporation cannot decide what I do with my smartphone, even though there is obviously a fair amount that can be done without unlocking it.

Does anyone have any good suggestions along these lines?

I was looking at colorless cards recently, and I noticed [[Farfinder]]. What is the lore around this little thing? What plane is it from? It is colorless, which is incredibly rare for something that is not an artifact creature or Eldrazi, let alone an apparent animal, and it has some very intriguing flavor text suggesting that it has some strange powers (teleportation? planeswalking?).
