right to the root cause: "AI, which is not a coherent set of products and services, but rather a commercial and political project, can be understood as a full-spectrum class-war offensive." The effort's "about putting us more firmly under control. Deskilled, devalued, hyper-surveilled, desperate."

California voters: Props 41 & 42 were written to foil the “Billionaire tax” Read. Understand. Vote.
If proposition 41 or 42 on this same ballot receive more “yes” votes than Prop 40, then Prop 40 could be stopped from becoming law even if it gets yes votes from a majority of voters. This is because the courts could find that Proposition 41 or 42 conflict with Proposition 40.
