I’m also struggling breaking through to my friends who are saying the right things (on social media) and not following through with “IRL” action.

I hear you. At the same time, there is a serious need for it to be more obvious to people what they can do to push back and also a lack of understanding from others how fragile democracy can be if left unattended.

@jackieschneider.bsky.social: Keeping a human in the loop in nuclear decisions is such a resoundingly logical decision...but the devil is in the details... AI can mimic human behavior but it has significant bias, and that bias tends toward escalation. #CACNP2025

@mjgault.bsky.social: We have avoided nuclear war because we've been lucky, but also because we've been human... The real danger of nukes at the dawn of AI is that justified by efficiency in the name of modernization, AI will replace the next Stanislov Petrov

We are lighting taxpayer dollars on fire every year by the hundreds of billions and making everyone on the planet less safe. I think nuclear weapons being part of everyday discourse should be encouraged.
