More anthropomorphic framing of AI, which diverts responsibility from human actors.
Claude didn’t “partner" with anyone, and neither did Maven.

The gradual deprioritization led NBC climate reporter Chase Cain to hit a breaking point, and he quit last week
Here's our interview:
The National Capital Planning Commission invited public comment on Donald Trump's ballroom.
They received more than 35,000. And 97% are negative.
We identified 12 shootings by federal agents that led to the deaths or injuries of citizens & immigrants since Sept.
