Every time AI interjects "itself" into our lives, just think of Mark Zuckerberg's actual real first version of Facebook and picture his face. Then try to imagine any of this AI nonsense as being motivated by helpfulness.

Who says there are no second chances? DC and DMV peeps- your chance to Man Up is tonight at Vital Voices Global Partnership, where I’ll be in conversation with the inimitable Alyse Nelson —book signing to follow.
Register below:
Tomorrow (Oct 22) at 5:30 pm EDT, join Vital Voices and co-host Sine Institute of Policy & Politics in welcoming @milleridriss.bsky.social for a discussion of her book, Man Up, and how an explosion of misogyny is driving a surge of mass and far-right violence.
