It has always been a problem with the use of the phrase “machine learning” that models like these, unlike human beings, cannot actually learn anything. If the status quo is racist, they will remain racist. They can parrot antiracism, not because they have learned it, but because someone else did.
WIRED tested the popular AI video generator from OpenAI and found that it amplifies sexist stereotypes and ableist tropes, perpetuating the same biases already present in AI image tools.

Color me not-shocked that he's the first director of IMLS that's never worked in a library or museum. Hate this for us.
Today, President Donald J. Trump appointed Keith E. Sonderling as Acting Director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), raising significant concerns for the nation’s library and museum communities.

Today I made a zine to inform people about the EO that would gut the #IMLS. I was asked to share, so hey, why not share widely? You can download and print your own copies at drive.google.com/file/d/1DUsm....

Clay recently disclosed that one person is responsible for 94% of all objections and appeals.
He does not qualify as a parent or legal guardian, but after HB 1285 was supposed to limit him to one objection per month, he found a parent willing to submit his “book reports” to get around the limit.

Since the start of the 22/23 SY, Clay County has received objections to more than 1300 unique titles.
506 titles were removed upon first review.
579 titles had at least one additional review. At least 40 of those appeals resulted in removal, and more than 230 resulted in further restrictions.

Millions of students rely on programs run by the Department of Education. Eliminating it would be equivalent to "giving up on our future," says @neapresident.bsky.social Becky Pringle.
We need leaders who will stand up for students—not dismantle the very systems that support them.

When you see these displays in your public library, write a note to the branch manager and director thanking them for supporting queer rights. Speak up at board meetings. I guarantee that library is already getting complaints. Admin/the board will cave to whoever is loudest, even bigots.
While the current administration attempts to eradicate us, remember that the library will continue to be a safe space for Trans and GNC folks. We're not going anywhere 📚

It really was a masterstroke of propoganda to convince people that the working poor are lazier than the 1%. That, if you're struggling to get by working common jobs, it is on you for not being a hustler, not on the boss for exploiting you or the system that rewards them doing so.
