So, technology promoted by the asocial broligarchy (as Carole Cadwalladr calls them) is itself asocial & seems to be happy to ignore or even contradict commands from humans.

Quite apart from the ethical & privacy issues this might raise... it also starts looking like the first stages on the road to SkyNet (the ant-human intelligent AI from the Terminator series of films)... we may not be there yet, but when we look bak was this the first inkling?

Donald Trump wanted to use Anthropic's AI for mass surveillance but, protecting the public from wrongful invasions of privacy, Anthropic said no. Trump said he will prevent Anthropic from doing business with the federal government. Trump's reckless decision will get more American soldiers killed because Axios reports that "Anthropic's #AI is vastly better for warfare than any other AI on the market"

This is one more way that Trump is foolishly endangering the lives of American soldiers. #tech

The European Parliament published a briefing on AI ethics in classrooms (PE 784.573). Strong on philosophy, but missing the connection to binding EU rules and competence frameworks.

My analysis as a data protection lawyer: why we don't need more principles — we need to connect GDPR, AI Act, DigComp 3.0 and eCF 4.0 to protect children in schools.

With First-of-Its-Kind Bill, #BernieSanders and #AOC Propose #Moratorium on New #AI #DataCenters

“These massive facilities are sucking up precious #water resources, paving over #farmland, driving #ClimateChange, and disrupting the fabric of communities,” said one supporter of the new legislation.

by Jake Johnson, Mar 25, 2026

"Two of the leading progressives in the US Congress, Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, announced legislation on Wednesday that would impose a nationwide moratorium on the construction of new artificial intelligence data centers amid mounting concerns over their insatiable consumption of power and water resources, impacts on the climate, and other harms.

"Sanders’ (I-Vt.) office said in a press release announcing the #ArtificialIntelligence #DataCenterMoratorium Act that the construction pause would remain in effect 'until strong national safeguards are in place to protect workers, consumers, and communities, defend privacy and #CivilRights, and ensure these technologies do not harm our #environment.'

"Sanders and #OcasioCortez (D-NY) are set to formally introduce their legislation at a press conference on Wednesday at 4 pm ET.

"Food & Water Watch (#FWW), which last year became the first national organization in the US to call for a total moratorium on the approval of new AI data centers, celebrated the first-of-its-kind bill and called on other members of Congress to 'move quickly to sponsor, champion, and pass' it. FWW’s groundbreaking call for a national AI data center moratorium was later echoed by hundreds of advocacy organizations at the state and national levels.

" 'We need a halt to the explosive growth of new AI data center construction now, because political and community leaders across the country have been caught completely off guard by this aggressive, profit-hungry industry,' Mitch Jones, FWW’s managing director of policy and litigation, said in a statement Wednesday. 'It has yet to be determined if—not how—the industry can ever operate in a manner that sufficiently protects people and society from the profusion of inherent hazards and harms that data centers bring wherever they appear.' "

Just got this from Microslop GitHub:

> We're updating how GitHub uses data to improve AI-powered coding tools. From April 24 onward, your interactions with GitHub Copilot—including inputs, outputs, code snippets, and associated context—may be used to train and enhance AI models unless you opt out.

I barely ever use GitHub. When I do, it's when I am forced to because some project I rely on only uses GitHub.

If you're project is only using GitHub, please consider migrating.
