Some morning musings on AI. We need to stop talking about this as technology issue. It's an ethics & law enforcement issue. Thread:

Good news: Wilber Garces Perez finally had surgery to remove the bullet that was in his back for 11 days. It took far too long, and it's more proof of ICE cruelty. But we kept up the pressure, and Wilber got the care he needed. Speaking up for our neighbors works.

At a really fundamental level Leo XIV is just a person with sound, well-reasoned, moral stances on the world and how life should be lived who isn't afraid to say those things in public. That kind of person simply does not make sense to business leaders and politicians for whom speech is convenience.

It's hard to tell which is weirder: the fact that these guys seriously suggest that models like Claude have consciousness/sentience or that they actually invest time and money (weird!) trying to convince the Pope as well as theologians and legal scholars of this belief.

"Combined with the spread of white nationalist ideology from obscure corners of the internet into mainstream politics, ... How extensive is white nationalism’s appeal among the broader public, and who is drawn to this extremist ideology?" theconversation.com/white-nation...
theconversation.com
White nationalism’s appeal runs deeper than partisan politics
Nearly 1 in 7 white men under 30 in the US support white nationalism, and partisanship alone doesn’t explain who’s drawn to it.

I visited Lighthouse Park this week to thank New Haven Parks for getting it open so quickly after a devastating storm and to discuss how I can continue to support our parks. I encourage everyone to visit Lighthouse Park and enjoy New Haven’s beautiful outdoors!

When a military defense contractor goes “all in” on backing a deeply polarizing figure like Trump, it raises the question, is it interested in defending the United States, or only a particular version of the United States that many of us don’t belong to?

Y’all, look at this absolute *unit* of a sycamore tree I found in the Pennsylvania woods. This giant was an absolute specimen. Over 200 years old. A trunk that dwarfed little ol’ six-foot me. I named it ‘Tree Rex.’ That’s an elder, man. An ancient. I do love me an old tree.

This is President Trump’s America. Noise and light pollution , higher power bills, and less clean water for you— all while he and his billionaire friends profit. Data centers support many critical technologies, but they do not belong in our neighborhoods.

Lawmakers love saying they want women to feel safe. OK. Then fund the rape-kit testing. Strengthen victim services. Address stalking and domestic violence. Improve investigations. Close dangerous gaps in the law. Safety requires more than a damn press release. 🗣️ #JulesUnfiltered

In fairness, it doesn't seem as though the editors went out of their way to make this sound coherent
We're selling millions of barrels of oil—that's ours—and it's been amazing. But we fought that war, it was less than one day. It was over. We're doing very well in Iran too. But it's a much bigger area, much bigger country, much further away. And—but the result is going to be the same. They want to make a deal. As soon as I make a deal, oil prices will drop to what they were. You know, when I was—you've heard me say this—When I was part of the going in, I was in Iowa, helping them campaign a little bit for the thing that we have coming up. And in Iowa, I mean, it was—oil was $1.90. I mean, it was like almost nothing. We broke the $2 barriers. One station was $1.85. One was $1.95. One was $1.99, and it was coming down all over the country. Now California is a little bit fictitious because in California they judge every time you lower the oil, they judge that. But I had no other way down there. And then I said to my people, including him, I said, "I hate to do this, you guys, but we have to take the nuclear weapon away from you."

Looking at the websites for candidates for our local school board, one features The Bluest Eye on his website as an example of a book he'd pull from the high school library. As if the thing we need to worry about is the teens discovering Toni Morrison.
