We already know many of the ethical principles that should guide the development of artificial intelligence. What we currently need are effective international institutions that can safeguard the global common good. This calls for shared standards, independent oversight, and clear mechanisms of accountability, so that decisions concerning the development and use of AI can be examined, challenged when necessary, and accompanied by appropriate remedies for any harm caused.

Intelligent technologies must be directed toward the common good. They must never become ends in themselves or serve merely the interests of a privileged few. Rather, their development should foster solidarity and participation at various levels of the global community, ensuring that the benefits of progress are shared equitably, especially with those most in need.

Decisions affecting human life, freedom, and the use of force must always remain subject to effective, informed, and responsible human oversight. For this reason, artificial intelligence must be “disarmed”, and I encourage the States meeting in Geneva in November to take concrete steps toward banning lethal autonomous weapons.

Machines are tools, not persons. Today, some propose granting these systems rights, or even legal personhood. Such an approach risks obscuring human responsibility and leaving those who suffer harm to confront a faceless entity.

The future of #ArtificialIntelligence is not pre-determined. As a technology developed by human beings, its future depends on the choices we make. We therefore have the responsibility to guide, change and, when necessary, reject its applications. A reliable system that serves the human person is of greater value than one that is exceptionally powerful but whose consequences cannot be adequately foreseen or controlled.

Oracle cut around 21,000 jobs in 2026. Amazon ~ 16,000 Meta ~ 8,000 Dell ~ 11,000 Intel ~ 15,000 Microsoft ~ 5,000 (with buyouts offered to 25% of their workforce) Immigrants aren’t taking your good jobs. It’s the oligarchs.

"New records obtained by KARE 11 show the company that owned a vacant private prison in Appleton, Minnesota offered to sell it to the state in 2025 for $75 million. One year later, the Trump administration agreed to use taxpayer funds to buy the same abandoned prison from CoreCivic, Inc., for $495.6 million. The price difference, $420 million, is more than taxpayers are estimated to have lost in Minnesota’s much-publicized Feeding Our Future fraud scandal." kare11.com/article/news/inve…

Delores Huerta was at the first protest I ever attended. I was in high school and we marched with farm workers to boycott lettuce because human beings were being sprayed with poison. She was breathtaking. Over the years, if there was a righteous cause you knew she’d be there majestic in her ferocious positivity. She taught me nothing is impossible, not to be lazy and the magic of calling upon the energy the ancestors. She will always be with us to lend her shoulders to serve and upon. Don’t fuck it up.

If I had to make a final pitch to the voters it would be, we messed up and I know you're disappointed, but that doesn't mean we'll do it again if you reelect us.

Obama might be on a personal mission to get Trump to stroke out. Godspeed, good sir.

A reminder that even JD knew exactly what Trump was before he got bought off and turned to the Dark Side.

I owe this dude a beer.
Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

Oh
Sen. @tedcruz in March: "I don't believe that what is happening in Iran will be front and center in November. If it extends that long, we've done something wildly wrong... The president said at the beginning this is going to be a matter of several weeks."
