The #doublestandard is #laughable.
In former #President #DonaldTrump’s #RepublicanParty (and it is his party now) #childishness, #cruelty, and #pettiness #reign supreme, the primary focus long ago shifted from #policy to #adhominem attacks where and #women’s #accomplishments are relegated to #irrelevance.

#EU's #AI #regulation will be as efficient as the #bank and #bigcompanies regulation.
AI doesn't need regulation.
AI needs to be #expropriated and be returned to the hands of all of us who created the #data on which LLMs are based.
Big companies need to be #dispossessed by #LLMs.

#Library #Flags #Book As Potentially '#SexuallyExplicit' Due To... #Author's #LastName: #Report
The #author's #publicist slammed the "#laughable" #situation involving the #children's #picturebook at an #Alabama #library as serious.
#Children’s #picturebook #flagged at #Alabama #library because #author’s #lastname is ‘#Gay’.
“Although it is obviously #laughable that our picture book shows up on their list of #censored #books simply because the author’s last name is Gay, the #ridiculousness of that fact should not detract from the #seriousness of the #situation,” Brassard said in a #statement.
Madison County Public Library administrators were asked to go over a list of potentially "sexually explicit" books to be moved from the children's and young adult section to the adult section. The majority of these books were about the LGBTQ community. At least one was added to the list because the author's last name is Gay.
