I SO love that UNC's own Fred Eshelman spent mucho money to convince the Wyoming & US Supreme Courts that a hunter stepping from one piece of public land to another at a corner was TRESPASSING because his foot needed to cross a few square inches of the air above Eshelman's ranch land.

He lost.

Now this is just taking things too far. Whoever did this should be ashamed of themselves.

A 🧵 on the AI jury:

This morning I watched several talented law students mock-try a robbery prosecution to a jury of three generative AI bots: ChatGPT, Grok, and Claude. The “jurors" were fed a real-time transcript of the proceedings and then "deliberated" in front of the audience.

At UNC School of Law this morning, three #AI bots are sitting as jurors in a mock trial of a juvenile robbery charge.

Intense criticism came from members of a post-trial panel including a law professor and a philosopher with legal training.

The title is unintentionally meta.

Let's face it: oval is a weak shape. Feminine.

Rectangles are strong. Masculine energy.

It's time.

UNC's 2-day conference on #AI later this week includes one (1) (uno) panel on ethics.
Nevermind that the conference site depicts a dystopia.
Of the 4 panelists, one runs an AI-based company advising companies about AI. Another works on preparing humans for extinction.

I'm not making this up.

What we need is *CIVIL DISCOURSE* about the delivery of presidential feces on the heads of citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.

I think we need *civil discourse* about mercy for prevaricating fraudsters.

I think we need *civil discourse* about firing artillery rounds over major highways.

I have the privilege of leading a group of UNC law students to Heart Mountain in Wyoming over fall break.
We're looking at roles lawyers played in the WWII imprisonment of Japanese Americans.
I can't describe the impact on the students of being where it happened. Huge.

It's part of this campus "festival on the intersection of human creativity and AI."

Even its marketing art is dystopian.
