Researchers Explore the Use of LLMs for Content Moderation | TechPolicy.Press The subject was a stand-out theme at the Trust and Safety Research Conference, held last month at Stanford, writes Tim Bernard.

Platforms are accelerating the transition to AI for content moderation, laying off trust and safety workers and outsourced moderators in favor of automated systems, writes Tim Bernard. The practice raises a host of questions, some of which are now being studied both in universities and in industry.

Energy Dept. adds β€˜climate change’ and β€˜emissions’ to banned words list It is the latest in a series of Trump administration efforts to dispute, silence or downplay climate change.

If you thought climate change was bad, allow me to introduce you to imate-clay ange-chay.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress.

Apparently, I’m a β€œdangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights.

But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

The MAGAs are out in full force today because their narrative is crumbling. Incredible work so proud of all of you. It’s impossible for this administration to control the narrative when everyone has a camera and access to social media.

What’s happening in LA is a reminder that we are not free in this country. The hammer they’ve built is built for you. The cages they’ve built are ready to throw you in. They’re eager to get to it.

Flock’s AI Cameras Are Watching Cars All Over America. They’re About To Get A Lot More Powerful. Amid fears it’s created a mass surveillance system, Flock is turning its license plate readers into fully-fledged surveillance cameras, taking on what it claims is a monopoly on police tech by Axon.

β€œFlock has been broadening its product offering for police to include drones, gunshot detection and a new software suite called Nova, which draws in information from police databases to make connections between suspects, properties or any other notable aspect of an investigation.”

Dems eye a villain-to-ally arc for Musk

If you're a Democrat who is considering helping to rehabilitate Elon Musk's reputation, maybe consider taking an OceanGate sub trip to the bottom of the ocean.

Elon Musk’s xAI in Memphis: 35 gas turbines, no air pollution permits The company’s turbines β€” enough to power 280,000 homes β€” run without emission controls in an area that leads Tennessee in asthma hospitalizations.

NEW from me: Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company is operating 35 gas turbines without any pollution permits, belching asthma-worsening emissions into an area that leads Tennessee in ER visits for asthma.

We have DOGE distributing NDAs (despite federal rules prohibiting them), Elon Musk’s staffers using threats and intimidation, Attorney General Ed Martin threatening criminal prosecution for anyone deemed β€œdisloyal,” and Schedule F quietly looming over it all.

Morale is in the toilet.
The Trump administration’s months-long hunt to root out the resistance is ramping up. Investigations are intensifying, with polygraph tests being used to create a climate of fear and intimidation.

In several ways, a minority government backed by a strong popular-vote plurality is the ideal Canadian outcome. Liberals + NDP + lone Green have a strong mandate from a majority of voters. The need to compromise leads to better policies, as we’ve seen in recent years, and a desirable humility
