"Alone against AI" amenazaroboto.com/alone-agains... An investigation produced in partnership with the @pulitzercenter.org's AI Accountability Network.

ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot assist public officials with their daily tasks. Out of the 24 agencies surveyed, only four reported having a formal policy governing the use of these tools. In most cases, each official decides—without clear guidelines—which government-held data can be provided to AI.

You're looking at the first and only iNaturalist record of a Puno Shade Lizard (Alopoglossus andeanus)! Reptile identifier Pete Zani noted the keeled scales on the side of its neck, smooth and bluntly pointed belly scales, and a few other features that align with the description of this species.
