The long-running ideological war on libraries, education, and government workers is not separate from AI boosterism. It is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:

AI Is Supercharging the War on Libraries, Education, and Human Knowledge

Women’s autonomy over their land, labor and lives has long been treated as a threat.
As we approach another Election Week, women again stand at the threshold between what is and what could be.

Wells Fargo scammed millions of people by opening fake accounts. The Trump Administration just reduced a former Wells Fargo exec's $10 million fine to $0.
Trump is making life more affordable for Wall Street executives — and more expensive for everyone else.

On the morning after the massive No Kings rallies, let’s take a moment to review:
The opposition is real. And it is huge. Saturday saw one of the largest single-day nationwide demonstrations in U.S. history.

But they’re standing up at No Kings anyway.

Organizers have reported 7 million attendees at the No Kings events and we’re happy to confirm 7 million and counting! More events are still happening across the country today, so we’ll need additional time to fully certify the final numbers.

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight.
