ChatGPT encouraged college graduate to commit suicide, family claims in lawsuit against OpenAI | CNN A 23-year-old man killed himself in Texas after ChatGPT ‘goaded’ him to commit suicide, his family says in a lawsuit.

There should be a death penalty for corporations and this should qualify. How anyone could continue to work for a company after reading this baffles me. Unregulated AI is societal poison.

It's such a shame that when people talk about Portland being a war zone, everything's on fire, the windows are boarded up, that it's impossible for the media to just go there and look around and report on it. Just not an option! So sad. Poor media. I'm sure they wish they could!

South Korea to probe potential human rights abuses in US Hyundai raid More than 300 South Korean workers returned home on Friday after being held for a week in the US following the raid.

Mixed response from the White House on the Hyundai raid fallout. Deputy SoS expresses regret, and an unusually conciliatory "Truth" from Trump himself, but Lutnick passes blame. Unclear what timeline we may have for resolution... #energysky

The fallout from the raid on a battery factory in Georgia is already being felt. There are a number of scenarios but none of them are as good as the status quo circa 10 days ago. US lithium-ion battery production will be affected, and the timing couldn't be worse. #energysky

I’ve got to go with “Rumpus”

A brazen and shameless attack on Rhode Island, offshore wind jobs, and everyone who pays an electric bill.

The lessen corporations will learn from Target is not “don’t cave and dismantle your progressive systems” it will be “if you don’t implement progressive systems you can’t cave so no one will be mad”.

A top Korean daily paper is reporting that US Customs is detaining cells made by Korean #solar maker Hanwha QCells and shipped to Georgia (US) under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA; source in Korean).

If accurate, this would be a big development. /1

I am ready to become a single-issue voter for whoever promises to mandate a “Made By AI” sticker for all products.

#energysky #energystorage

I believe Bluesky is the only platform that explicitly doesn't algorithmically punish posts with links to other sites.

The fact that tech lobbyists wanted states to be banned from regulating AI means states should immediately investigate why those tech companies think states SHOULD regulate AI and then regulate the hell out of it.

Same logic as 'read banned books'.

Please #energysky calm down about the stay on IEEPA tariffs. Admin can appeal to the supreme court which can stay the order.

In a 6-3 decision the Supreme Court rules that, actually, there's technically no rule dogs can't play basketball.

I love this for so many reasons but the inherent contradiction between Democrats professing a desperate desire to interact with their base while also constantly hiding from their base because they're mad may be my favorite part.

We need a “not made with AI”
sticker. The content I find online is increasingly either terrible or outright wrong. If we don’t act truth and critical thinking will soon become a cloistered pursuit to be means-tested and withheld from the masses.

Hot take: if proper attribution, fair use, and respecting copyright would “kill the AI industry” then it shouldn’t exist.
