Punching down on population's most vulnerable won't push Josh Turek, Rob Sand, etc. to victory. Farmer Joe ain't coming across the aisle. And they already got Blue MAGA. Will hurt them with DSA. Growing everywhere, even red-ass Iowa. Done w/ down-ballot, lesser-evil BS. Every vote is earned.
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

Mass surveillance is incompatible with a free society, and especially so when the people with access to this data are treating it like a joke. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

OpenAI did not "lose control", the agents did not go "rogue" and there is no "swarm" that "escaped". all control and responsibility remains firmly in the hands of these "frontier" labs. most importantly this "rogue" narrative is an intentional and strategic marketing PR
"Did these AI models “go rogue”? Not exactly. the models were tasked with finding solutions to a hacking challenge, and this is what they attempted to do, though in an unintended and surprising manner." aiguide.substack.com/p/misleading...
