6/ We’re calling for a humans-first AI strategy. One that protects Canadian jobs, data and natural resources. Not a strategy that mimics the worst tendencies of AI chatbots: hallucinating benefits and flattering big tech CEOs by telling them exactly what they want to hear.

4/ That’s why before rushing ahead, with no brakes, we need a robust regulatory framework. Every other industry in this country, from forestry to banking, is regulated. Yet somehow, when it comes to generative AI that is controlled by MAGA-aligned billionaires, the usual rules don’t apply.

3/ This government is imposing a world-changing technology on all of us without any public debate. Instead of putting in place strong regulations to safeguard workers, youth, privacy, and our water and energy supply, they prefer to “move fast and break things” as the Silicon Valley motto goes.

1/ The Liberal government might as well have called its AI strategy “All in for AI”. This is a document that's heavy on hype, but light on the right guardrails that we need to protect people – and to ensure that the benefits of the technology don’t just flow to a handful of tech giants & investors.

DEFENDANTS' MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION
Given substantial changes on the ground in Venezuela and the fluid nature of the unfolding
situation, Defendants respectfully move for an extension to respond to this Court's Order (ECF
214) directing them to propose a remedy by Monday, January 5. Over the weekend, the United
States apprehended Nicolas Maduro. As a result, the situation on the ground in Venezuela has
changed dramatically. Defendants thus need additional time to determine the feasibility of various
proposals. Defendants therefore request a 7-day extension to evaluate and determine what
remedies are possible.Dated: January 4, 2025

An incel overreacts to a Pizzacake cartoon depicting Ross Douthat first harassing a female co-worker, getting rebuffed, then writing a thinkpiece about how women "ruined" the workplace. The incel's response, in full: "Maybe men like this give rude compliments out of spite, since they never receive any nice compliments from women in their entire lives? Maybe should try throwing him a compliment and them BAM he might respect you as a human. Worth a shot at least. This guy wasn't always like this. He was conditioned, by cruelty."
