Latest in my series on AI in State Government based on our research we did for Code for America. #AIforGovernment #AI open.substack.com/pub/impacthu...

New blog series forthcoming! #AIforGovernment #stategovernment

I have a new blog series on state AI use based on the research and analysis I did for @codeforamerica.org's new report. Here's the summary of what's coming: open.substack.com/pub/impacthu... #AI #AIforGovernment

I'm grateful to the @codeforamerica.org team for trusting me to lead the research and analysis on this important work. This new analysis expands on last year's AI readiness rubric to include the lifecycle of AI development, deployment, and measuring impact with the ongoing learning practices.

Is Space Exploration Essential for Transforming Our Moral Systems? "The Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) oral Constitution mandated that decisions by elders must consider the impacts on the next seven generations (140-200 years). "

Let's be clear: The Trump Admin's vendetta against the SPLC is a sign of how impactful their work is. The SPLC has been at the forefront of exposing some of America's most notorious hate groups, like the KKK. The fact that the Trump Admin feels threatened by that speaks volumes.

Official data is in today, and US solar power generation continues to grow rapidly, up 25% compared to this time last year!

“ICE needs more training” is an echo of the weak circa 2003 democratic stance that “we need more body armor in Iraq.” It’s a wish washy poll tested bit of pablum meant to appeal to some mythical middle. Like ending the Iraq War the only real position is to abolish ICE.

"Less Talking, More Doing: AI for Impact" by @stephenrockwell.bsky.social "The accelerating pace of technological change doesn’t wait for five-year strategic plans. Social impact organizations must match this velocity with methods that are just as dynamic."

If you are currently an ICE agent or thinking about it, do yourself a favor and save your soul. Find something else to do with your life. You cannot maintain your moral compass and work for an organization that rips families apart. #abolishice

"The accelerating pace of technological change doesn’t wait for five-year strategic plans. AI, automation, and data analytics are already reshaping how services are accessed, how policy is implemented, and how communities advocate for themselves." #AI #AIforGood
