AI technology has raised a lot of practical and ethical issues in research that our review processes (and the time we allot to them) are unprepared to cope with. #AcademicSky

This would be a terrific project for an undergrad public policy class.
If someone hasn’t already made this, with holiday gatherings approaching it could be useful having a website with graphs, cited blurbs to illustrate HOW government institutions have changed and become underfunded, how it will affect NOT ‘just those people’ but ALL of us. Too many don’t grasp it.
