So is ethical AI possible? I say no, at least not in its current form or at this tenuous time in history. To use it is to forsake the value of work and the people who do it while putting money in the pockets of those who are active or complicit in the global dismantling of democracy and human rights

Trump's HUD is preparing to gut federal support for long-term housing programs.

The changes could put 170,000 formerly homeless people at risk of losing their housing — many of whom are disabled or over 50.

Since 1799, people have been inhaling nitrous oxide for laughs. Two centuries later, it became easier to get, and thus far more popular. Now an entire industry has arisen to make sure anyone can partake. Funny thing though: There are serious downsides (if you consider brain damage a downside).

The SS Edmund Fitzgerald was lost 50 years ago today — around the time Gordon Lightfoot was at work on a new album.

An experienced Great Lakes sailor who knew those waters well, he later told NPR he was surprised that media coverage gave “short shrift for such a monumental event.”

Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches
Republicans have voiced outrage that Jack Smith looked at G.O.P. lawmakers’ phone records surrounding the Jan. 6 attack. Legislation to reopen the government would allow them to sue for $500,000 each.
