The State Department said it takes "full responsibility" for "hastily" altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference that mislabeled every single country it highlighted.
An analysis by Reuters found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.

When confronted with a groundbreaking new technology, schools and districts often act in haste to standardize. With AI, schools and districts are poised to repeat an error that may have grave consequences and profoundly missed opportunities for learners.

“🆘💰💰💰So the order of events is as follows: Tom Homan and Pam Bondi consult and lobby for Geo Group, Geo Group helps elect Trump in 2024, Homan and Bondi join Trump's administration in 2025, and then Trump’s administration helps Geo Group make profits.
At a minimum, that raises questions about a conflict of interest”
💰💰Geo Group also gave $1 million dollars to the Make America Great Again PAC which backed Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign.
Last year, after Trump was elected, the company’s CEO, Brian Evans, estimated that Geo Group could make an additional $400 million annually as a result of Trump’s planned deportations.
And indeed, the company is one of multiple private prison companies making a profit from locking up immigrants for the administration. So much so, that on a conference call earlier this year, the company’s executive chairman said “we’ve never seen anything like this before” while referencing the speed with which the Trump administration has sought to procure contracts with Geo Group”
THEN ADD THE KING OF GRIFT Ron DeSantis who has been paid MILLIONS to his campaign coffers since 2016 by GEO Group and why Alligator Alcatraz is only the beginning in Florida
So sports fans … this was NEVER about making America safer by removing adjudicated criminals … it was about racially profiling already marginalized communities as easy targets for profit —
That is —- A TAXPAYER FUNDED HUMAN TRAFFICKING RING

Why is Donald Trump threatening journalists? Our allies deserve respect, not intimidation.

This is exactly why California is putting out our own, science-backed vaccine recommendations through the West Coast Health Alliance.
We're not going to let the Trump Administration's recklessness put our residents in harm's way.

California is rejecting RFK Jr.'s baseless vaccine restrictions and issuing our own recommendations as part of the West Coast Health Alliance — rooted in evidence, safety, and shared by doctors across the nation.
We won't let the Trump Administration jeopardize our health.
Societal refusal to invest in instrumental music has paid off, as long as you don't care about culture or humanity. The good news is that we don't need to teach kids AI literacy. In fact, we don't need teachers or actual students. #somuchwinning

I despise the idea of reducing teachers to beggars. It’s a distraction from all the other important work teachers have to do It reduces their value and the perceived worth of public education with each round of fundraising.
