Students falsely accused by teachers of submitting AI-generated school reports, and speaking out—gives me some hope of a backlash. Losing ability to think for ourselves. Do not think this will turn out well in any way including massive amounts of electricity and water needed for AI data centers.

It's about greediness putting good people out of work. Unless we solve the economic problems that creates, it's going to cause widespread poverty and social unrest. We've already seen it with automation, changing markets, and the replacement of domestic labor with workers in the third world.

Lawyers use it because it makes it even easier to flood their opponent. So opponent firms end up using a.i. to detect a.i. 🔁 Reminders those bots 🤖 run on public electricity and vanishing fresh water

One use (which could be easily replaced by a less resource-draining program): I have to do consults with Spanish-speaking patients, via an interpreter, who cannot be replaced by AI. But AI helps to send a text in Spanish "Your appointment is [date] at 11 AM" For everything else, AI makes it worse

Big fyi; insurance companies use AI to turn down your medical claims. Google United Health Care gets fined.

It’s still just a Google type search engine, no? At work (dental office), when I encounter AI chatbots to help, they generally don’t. I have to get to a person, dental insurance is too convoluted. It wastes time so far for me.

That’s AI as in your doctor performed a biopsy but AI wants to bill you for a bunch of other stuff that didn’t happen and reads your path report as cancer when it’s an abscess.

I work in healthcare. My job is basically to audit the work AI produces. IME, my job is secure. What it’s producing is so laughably, obviously wrong. But CEOs are chasing profit and productivity. They’re paying for fast, inaccurate work then paying for it to be fixed by a human. #NoBailout

It’s the busiest shopping period of the year, so we’re hitting pause on buying from corporations that enable Trump’s fascist agenda: weaintbuyingit.com/?utm_source=bluesky

Yikes. (via @steverattner.bsky.social)

Speaker Rep. McClinton and Rep. Mayes are exceptionally professional. They are powerful. And today, because of their work and unrelenting advocacy, they stood by me as I signed the CROWN Act into law.

We don’t let leaders who stand up to fascism do so alone.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business. The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay. It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders. Textbook corporate greed.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

The vicious cycle of monopolization: 1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market. 2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers. 3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations. 4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement. 5) Repeat.

Let me see how many of you want to send a signal to Trump, that says, "Hey...Donald, Stick it up your ASS!" for his threats to Mark Kelly...and others? Give me a "Yep. #HOLDFAST"

Where are the Epstein files? So they are busy now with threatening Mark Kelly and the others, pretending they broke some law, that they think we forgot anout the #Trumpstein files? Better get your affairs in order Trump regime, you are all going to jail.

Just beyond stupid.

Standing by his principles, standing up to bullies. Bravo, Zohran!

Meanwhile, back in the real world . . . The average US retail gas price is currently $3.19, up from last week. It was a penny cheaper last Thanksgiving when Biden was president.

I can remember being taught about rules of engagement about 30 years ago in the Australian Air Force, which included not obeying unlawful commands, such as blowing up unknown boats in international waters. I think it was all part of the Geneva Convention.

The message angered Trump, who accused Kelly and five other Democrats featured in the video of committing sedition, calling it “punishable by DEATH.”

The Defense Department opened an investigation into Senator Mark Kelly (a former Navy captain and astronaut) after he appeared in a video urging service members to reject unlawful commands.

Republicans planned to weaponize Mamdani in 2026, but Trump blew up their whole strategy before it even left the lab.

No the Democrats in this video aren't "implying" anything. Members of the armed forces ARE required to refuse illegal orders. This is simple. Not controversial at all. And it's super revealing that MAGA is so worried that troops won't carry out an illegal order from Trump.

DOJ is supposed to enforce the law as it is written, but time and again this DOJ's leadership seeks to dictate what it thinks the law should be. The decision to not follow the law has consequences, as we’ve seen with this ruling today.

NEW: The fight for voting rights didn’t end on the Edmund Pettus Bridge. It’s happening today in places like Newbern, Alabama, where white officials secretly blocked a Black mayor-elect in 2020. What the Supreme Court does next could change everything. ✍️ @jimsaksa.com

Grift and shakedowns; that’s the entirety of our government at the moment. #CrooksAndLiars Trump was not a billionaire when he entered office, but he’s gonna leave a trillionaire, and his entire family tree has profited from our hard-earned dollars.
