So there were some AI-generated videos that purported to show Black women ranting about SNAP benefits, and... Fox News is reporting on this like these are real people. They're not! They're AI!

This is truly insane. Total unreality. www.foxnews.com/media/snap-b...

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

If you’re just learning more about ICE Air, here are the basics:

-Commercial charters do domestic shuffle and intl removal flights. Mostly Global X but also Avelo, Eastern Air Express, and Omni.
-Private jet charters do removals to Africa, inc. third-country
-Coast Guard does domestic shuffles

Okay, here's what I know and don't know* about the planes that were supposed to take children to Guatemala today.

*None of this flight tracking would be necessary if ICE Air didn't keep its operation secret and if Drew Ensign didn't talk to the court in riddles.

If you ask ChatGPT about Palestine, it’s doing more “both-sides” than the NYT.

I’m running a workshop Monday 8/4 called “Making AI Work When Your Boss Says You Have To” - not about learning to love AI, but about navigating the pressure professionally.

I saw an IG comment recently that said “This is what we’re destroying the planet over? 🙄”

The video they were commenting on was a person discussing how they use ChatGPT to support their mental health because they don’t have access to a therapist.

NIH's proposal to cut the grants it pays for medical research will not just hurt elite coastal universities.

Who else has a lot at stake? The states of Missouri and North Carolina. The University of Texas Cancer Center. Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

Doomerism isn't a strategy. Some things you can do today:

- Call the Congress switch line and complain (no, seriously)
- If you can afford to, boycott companies that rolled back DEI.
- Support Black-owned brands and Black art/writing/books
- Support local farmers
- Attend a DC-based protest

This week, we’re getting into the importance of AI literacy from an angle that I hadn’t formally considered until I came across an article that, frankly, pissed me off.

I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! jordanharrod.substack.com

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!
