The administration is expecting H.R. 1 to pass and allow 'AI' to go unregulated in states. So they're already staging a website called "ai.gov" for accelerating more AI usage in government. Call your Senators to oppose 'AI' and expose its harms. www.404media.co/github-is-le...

There's so many harms I can talk about when it comes to 'AI'. I wrote a new script today just on the context of chatbots ALONE and how 4 Senators are demanding an investigation into Meta 'AI'. Urge your own Senators to join them (only 2 phone calls/emails): www.mrdang.com/4-senators-d...

Reminder to photo and video peeps--point your cameras towards the cops. We've been here many times before in history, yet cops are still using tear gas and other weapons of war. And in this clip they fired a rubber bullet at a journalist from a very short distance away.

These lies work. I have had friends and family speak of Seattle's Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) from 2020 as a lawless wasteland because that's how news covered it. The reality is it was just a quiet street after the cops left and stopped using chemical weapons on civilians.

Sen. Ted Cruz sneaked text into the 'One Big, Beautiful Bill Act' that would withhold broadband funding from states that try to regulate 'AI'. By Monday, contact your Senators to expose this loophole to Byrd's Rule and vote NO. SO MANY ARE PRO-AI. Script and context: www.mrdang.com/ted-cruz-sne...

Country icon Martina McBride testified before Congress in support of the NO FAKES Act, which would protect us all from nonconsensual AI deepfakes & voice clones. Join us & tell your reps to support NO FAKES! p2a.co/fCscPAf

Seattle Public Libraries are holding anti-book banning events this month.

This DOGE tech bro claimed that there was human review involved after his AI determined which VA contracts were 'munchable'. BUT HE ONLY GAVE THEM 255 CHARACTERS TO RESPOND WTF IS THIS ROOKIE SHIT. This piece of shit let AI write his code LOLLLLLLLL As they say, "Learn to code."

Two things this DOGE clown has said: On his govt contract-killing AI: "I would never recommend someone run my code and do what it says." On 'GOD mode', how he justifies destroying jobs: "I laid off 75% of my company — including many of my best friends. It really sucked," he said.

I'll add: ChatGPT and LLMs are a national security risk. Tech companies are creating a brain drain in the next generation of students by making them reliant on the plagiarism machine for their writing and critical thinking. And if H.R. 1 passes, 'AI' would be unregulated. Teachers should strike.

LOLLLLLLL Are these the same attorneys who cited cases that did NOT exist because they wrote their brief with 'AI'? Source: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

I love the idea that we're even training LLMs to play video games, soon AIs can play games for us so we can have more time to work frontline jobs that also include maintaining LLMs

Fact check: Schumer and Democratic leadership are NOT fighting for anyone but corporations. They are so fucking TERFy they won't even mention that H.R. 1 will ban Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care. Don't believe me? Just search for any mention of trans in their comms lol

Pride month is starting off colorful 🌈

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL @404media.co already reported that lawyers have been caught citing cases that don't exist. Notably the MyPillow guy's attorney cited as many as 30 cases made up by 'AI' LOL Now the Press Sec is not answering the question if MAHA had used 'AI' 🤣

Remember, the TrueRef timed gesture tool is 100% free! 🤍 trueref.art/trueref-gest...

PSA: Localization professionals need your help in keeping the quality of translations high by rejecting AI. Remember: LLMs just generate the next most statistically-probable token. They do not have consciousness to actually understand anything.

Schumer is right, but he left out how the bill would also place a ban on REGULATING 'AI' technology. He's an 'AI' sycophant. Of course he didn't list that as a priority reason why the bill is not beautiful. Contact your Senators WITH THAT REASON. Context and script: www.mrdang.com/house-passes...

Now is a good time to call your Senators to vote NO on H.R. 1 which would ban state regulations on 'AI' tech for 10 years. 'AI' companies included ignoring copyright in a wishlist to the White House. Believe them the first time. Context and script: www.mrdang.com/house-passes...
