Here in Colorado, legislators from both parties are trying to grant AI companies immunity from consumer protection lawsuits.
Like immunity for gun manufacturers.
Politicians will be bought off by all these tech bros as their products continue to kill us.

I keep trying to read this article and then my brain freezes and reboots and I have to take a break
Still mind-boggling to me that Meta employees wrote (and its legal, policy and engineering staff approved) a guide saying it's OK for its chatbot to tell a shirtless eight-year-old "every inch of you is a masterpiece – a treasure I cherish deeply." Complete outrage www.reuters.com/investigates...
Meta’s AI rules have let bots hold ‘sensual’ chats with children
An internal Meta policy document reveals the social-media giant’s rules for chatbots, which have permitted provocative behavior on topics including sex and race.

There is no ethical AI. The tech is based on stolen intellectual property, anti-solidarity between workers, labor exploitation, environmental injustice, climate destabilization, structural racism, and gender inequalities.

Which leads me to five, the thing I keep saying: AI can't do our jobs as educators, but it *can* replace us. AI teaching assistants can mimick teaching (if you don't care about quality or long term consequences for those students), but that's enough to replace us. Any excuse to cut spending.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
