Mr. Governor, we may disagree about a variety of things, but I 100% agree with what you’ve said here. Now it looks like @realDonaldTrump is siding with Big Tech on this. How can like-minded people like us, from across the political spectrum, work together to stop this?
Stripping states of jurisdiction to regulate AI is a subsidy to Big Tech and will prevent states from protecting against online censorship of political speech, predatory applications that target children, violations of intellectual property rights and data center intrusions on

Big AI companies are trying to restrict states from regulating AI by adding a dangerous eleventh-hour provision to the annual National Defense Authorization Act. Contact your representatives – there are only a few days left to stop this! Link: https://t.co/V6UbTY9OL3

I used to think the main damage from social media was to youth mental health. Now I believe that the global destruction of the human ability to pay attention may be even larger. A meta-analysis shows the damage, to adults as well as teens, from TikTok+ https://t.co/YS0dkQTdj0

The resurgence of short-form videos (SFVs), popularized by TikTok and Douyin, has transformed social media platforms, with features like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts fostering their widespread...
Bingeing TikTok reels may be hazardous to your well-being. 71 studies, >98k people: The more short-form videos teens and adults watched, the more they struggled with attention, self-control, and stress and anxiety. Read a book. Watch a movie. Long live longform.

I'm directing a movie for @netflix about AI. Fictional story about very real things. I'm so excited Rachel is playing the lead, and I admire her greatly for not being on social media. 😁 https://t.co/PwGWopOv1F

I co-starred with Mark Zuckerberg in a new video. Meta’s AI algorithms are designed to prey on kids. Highschoolers. 8-year-olds. As a dad, it makes me livid.
Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe. But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users.

A long time ago, kings owned all the land, and serfs owned nothing. Today, content and data are becoming as valuable as land. And the lords of Silicon Valley don't want us owning our digital selves anymore than kings wanted serfs owning their land. I wrote an OpEd about it 👇
