The Federalist: How Democrats Are Turning The Whole Country Into California 2.0
President Biden's administration resembles California, with many officials hailing from the state. The Build Back Better plan, labeled "Making America California Again," implements liberal policies and will spend more money in California than any other state. California's influence on national debates and policies on various issues is evident. The PRO Act, resembling California's AB 5, favors unions and hurts small businesses. The Californication of the national agenda continues with socialist policies and the potential presidential candidacy of Gavin Newsom. We must prevent the mismanagement of California from spreading to the rest of the country.

Fox News: AI could be useful in fighting antisemitism, tech expert says, but it's not without risks
Artificial intelligence could be used to detect and remove antisemitic and terrorist content online, according to CyberWell CEO Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor. Platforms should prioritize combating hate content and violence, and use AI to effectively delete such materials. After an increase in antisemitic content on social media during the Israel-Hamas conflict, CyberWell reported that companies performed poorly in filtering out violent content from Hamas. Companies already have automated technology to detect child pornography, and AI could be an additional tool to moderate content during crises. However, there is a risk that generative AI could be used to spread antisemitism and misinformation. CyberWell has worked with social media companies to flag antisemitic content, with varying levels of success in content removal.
Forbes: Figuring Out What Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) Consists Of Is Enormously Vital And Mindfully On The Minds Of AI Researchers At Google DeepMind
Summary in two paragraphs or less:
The definitions of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) are widely disputed. While some believe AI and AGI should be defined as systems exhibiting intelligent behavior, others argue for stricter definitions. The vague definitions of AI and AGI pose challenges for governance and regulation, as laws and guidelines may unintentionally stifle innovation or allow threatening types of AI to evade regulations. The debate surrounding the definitions of AI and AGI may lead to lengthy legal battles, potentially involving the U.S. Supreme Court.

Forbes: Better Measures, Efficient Subsidies Lead To Housing Affordability
Improving housing affordability is crucial, but our current measures fall short. Traditional credit scores and the way we measure risk contribute to distortions. People of color, who are often poorer, tend to have low credit scores. To address this, RentSpree is reporting rent payments to credit agencies to incentivize timely payments. However, the best incentive would be more money. Poor households face daily decisions about what essential needs they can't meet, managing without. We should expand credit scores to include regular payments like rent and utilities, while also providing interventions that offer more cash and less paperwork. Ultimately, we need more affordable housing and targeted subsidies to address poverty effectively and create economic opportunities.
