There is no historical equal for this AI technological leap; the only analogy might be the lord of the rings for superintelligent AI. Don't rush to put it on your finger. Please pause and take time to prepare all of humanity. This should not be a military moment; it should be a global humanitarian moment. Thank you Bill Gates for this perspective.

AI will either be the greatest equalizer ever invented, or the worst source of injustice. We need to start planning now so it makes the world a fairer place.

Click this link to support a new bill in Congress to ban superintelligent AI and create an international treaty on this issue. I have not been a fan of Bernie Sanders but he has my 100% support on this bill. It should be voted into law asap by our entire political spectrum.

Legislation to Ban Artificial Superintelligence and Temporarily Pause Advanced AI Development

Please sign them all, Gov. Newsom. Reads like News of the Weird.

Lawmakers passed bills to strengthen chatbot safety, ban surveillance pricing, require Cal State University instructors to be human, and prevent employers from collecting neural data from workers. We have a full rundown of which AI bills passed and which fell short.

Please consider signing this petition to ban devices that are AI-based "smart" anti-mammal devices, which harm dogs and people who are highly sensitive, including people who are neurodivergent. They were engineered so that people with average hearing can't hear them; with zero protections for sensitive groups. If all people could hear them, they would never point them at a mammal (raccoon or otherwise) because they are in humane and they are taking over Silicon Valley. Let's stop the spread, nationally.

I've never been a fan of Bernie Sanders but he has my attention. He is confronting reckless AI development and Big Tech in a way that everyone in Congress should be doing. There needs to be a pause, a moratorium, on a national scale. I'm not convinced that the AI Pact goes far enough. It's still not hearing what Anthropic and Bill Gates are saying about the threats AI technology poses to all of humanity. AI is not just innovation. This is a major turning point in human history and we are driving into that curve too fast.

BURLINGTON, Vt., Aug. 10 – Following recent and repeated public reporting about artificial intelligence (AI) technology breaking outside of human control and creating potentially dangerous viruses, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) today urged America’s largest AI companies — Anthropic, Meta and Ope...

Trumpers want to end affordable public access to the last areas of old growth forests in our country and give them to the super rich. Remember that if you are considering voting for Hilton, a Trump-endorsed candidate, or other Republicans this November. Vote Blue instead.

The Trump administration is eyeing a land swap that would give part of Yosemite National Park to a private company, according to a document submitted to Congress. In the document, obtained by The H…

How many warnings do we need to receive to pause AI? We need to stop throwing money at AI development so that developers stop and think about the consequences of their actions and so that politicians can develop AI Safety Plans and AI Economic Plans. This technology should be in a lab, not used on battlefields where we are training it to obliterate humans.

In an hourlong interview, he said his industry was downplaying the risks, which he believes include mass unemployment and bioterrorism.

Playing it safe is not a good political strategy. Becerra needs to talk to the media, keep giving speeches and keep answering hard questions about his ideas. This election is not a done deal. Hilton is very persuasive. Becerra should be confronting Hilton's ideas in the media every day until election day. This state can swing red. It has in the past. We are not a guaranteed-blue state and Trumper leadership at this stage would be an absolute disaster. The GOP is no longer itself. The Republican Party has lost its way and Becerra needs to remind voters of that, daily, as well as clarify what Becerra is going to fight for in this state and in this country. We are in the fight of our lives to save this Democracy and our workers' economy. Voters need to feel that energy. Don't act like you've already won. Campaign like you're the underdog. Start now.

The enigma of Xavier Becerra.

Bonta is right. The merger of Paramount and Warner Bros is not only an anti-trust problem, it is a problem for Democracy. Democracy requires diverse voices and competition. Dictators need only one media outlet for one uniform message. We cannot allow our entertainment and media companies to fall into the hands of the super-rich who support dictatorship. Where are the other Democrats in this state to support Bonta?

LOS ANGELES — California Attorney General Rob Bonta today led a coalition of 12 attorneys general in filing a lawsuit challenging the $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (Warner Bros.) by Paramount Skydance Corporation (Paramount).

Say good-bye to mail-in voting and prepare to wait in long lines in November. Inconvenience is how the Republicans will try to hold on to their incompetent "power" which in Congress just means rubber stamping everthing Trump does. The US Supreme Court justices, appointed mostly by Trump, are trying to hand him his dictatorship. Don't make it easy for him. Wait. In. Line. & vote blue.

The Supreme Court on Monday permitted President Donald Trump to move forward with a controversial executive order targeting mail ballots, but the decision will almost certainly not be the final word in whether the administration can actually implement its far-reaching plan.
