the whole point for me of becoming an academic was to get to spend my life reading the thoughts of other weird little minds, and helping those other weird little minds find their own way, and AI has largely stolen that from me, and I will never be okay with it.

But here's my thesis, lots of that "writing" really doesn't need to exist and the desire or need to outsource it to something that does not have the capacity to communicate with intention is a good sign that it didn't need to exist in the first place. It's a useful lens of what is and isn't bullshit

Describing Bill C-27 as a "technical term that no one else but us will maybe get" is a hell of a good way to trivialize the role of law in society. Yea sure, laws are just technicalities that no one cares about.

Policy idea: jurisdictions that require platforms to maintain ad registries should also require them to ask civil society organizations if they want to host the data before deleting it.

Inspired by a preventive dispute mechanism developed in the U.S. in the 70's to resolve tensions between the U.S. gov and large engineering companies working on military projects, @catherineregis.bsky.social and I have tried to imagine how states and platforms could collaborate on tech regulation.

Last time I checked, if you ask ChatGPT whether a case is worth bringing to court, you’ll be encouraged to move forward (if you’re a male lawyer) or advised to carefully consider your chances of success (if you’re a female lawyer.)

Hope Canada will jump on the bandwagon! Your time to shine, dear Canada Elections Act! nationalmagazine.ca/en-ca/articl...
Screenshot. Reads as follows: 

Under the CEA, online platforms that sell this type of advertising during elections must set up a registry that journalists and researchers can use to ensure that political actors don't engage in illegal advertising. X/Twitter no longer has one.
Failing to publish a registry is a strict liability offence; not having one is sufficient to be convicted. Platforms' lawyers were concerned about the stringency of these provisions, and their lobbyists worked hard to get the government to water them down.
This is Musk's Achilles heel.
As soon as the election is called, Canada could fine X-or even Musk himself-$2000 every time someone pays to share political content on the platform. And if Musk tries to fund any political activity or give a mic to right-wing politicians, the provisions against undue influence are ready to be enforced.
Of course, prosecuting Musk under the Canada Elections Act would not be as spectacular as ripping up his passport. But perhaps the best way to oppose a man who thrives on chaos, attention, and lawlessness was never to fight back with a lawless riposte anyway.

IMO, this is the kind of content that should be included in an ad registry. These are third party groups. They are promoting a candidate. And they're paying for a blue checkmark that increases their reach.

Protecting Canadian democracy is precisely what the legislation is for and one of its great features is that it forbids undue influence from foreigners
