Eagerly awaiting everyone who criticized the July state AI law moratorium proposal as "federal overreach" or "violating states' rights" to condemn this far more preposterous, invasive, and blatently illegal proposal.
I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI. The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.

If you combine prudent budgeting and management, then you can see huge benefits from data centers. The recent LBNL report's analysis showed load growth was likely driving down rates, but the public conversation mixes this up all the time. https://t.co/IYfwlvUTAG

The fun thing about Waymo is we literally have a Trolley Problem and it turns out there's a whole cohort of midwits that would max(deaths) instead of admitting that technology is useful.
Caltrain pumping Waymo feels icky

I watched Home Alone no less than 1,000 times. On VHS.
i know so many parents whose kids watch Frozen or some other movie literally every day, for months at a time feels like this was not a thing among kids in the 90s obviously pressing 'play' is so easy, but rewinding a VCR isn't hard either what explains?

I have a new essay for @TheBushCenter on the huge opportunity AI presents for reinvigorating America - and the challenges that could stop us.
The United States already leads the world in high-tech development. But policy, not technology, now stands in our way. Our @neil_chilson in @TheBushCenter

Can @CityofAnnapolis adopt any or all of AZ’s permitting regime? Please? I’m begging you. I want to build a DECK and have been waiting for approval for 3+ weeks.
BREAKING: Tesla has officially received approval from the Arizona Department of Transportation to launch its Robotaxi service on public roads in the state! I just confirmed directly with the Arizona DOT that @Tesla applied for a Transportation Network Company permit on Nov 13th.

But was she here illegally?!

😴WHO CARES?! Oh wow you get curbside service from the cops and get to skip TSA. Lemme know when you have to deal with stuff ANYONE else has to deal with.
Confirmed: “Officers are waiting.” Reality: No one in sight. Rep. Nancy Mace releases personal text messages exposing repeated Charleston Airport security failures, more than two dozen this year alone.
