This is the EXACT kind of shit we have been warning you about. "A.I." tools trained on data filled with asaumptions and prejudices about marginalized people and then being deployed in situations with literal life-&-death implications for the people involved. In this case, diaabled parents being more likely to be flagged as "unfit."
This is utter nightmare shit.
I've set up a new Mastodon profile here after masthead.social went down (without warning or explanation). I found myself missing the #fediverse.
So here I am rebuilding.
Posting about #journalism, #podcasts, and #business. Also #DC #SF and sometimes #Boston. Get at me.
If our Justice Department is going to lolligag and flifferfluff from making high level arrests, then it’s up to us to go straight Monkey Wrench Gang on these fascists, and throw sand in their metaphorical tanks.
We expose their techniques, punching up at all times, deflating the cult, and watching them fall.

"We all weigh joys and darkness and goodness and sin;
you see, we are infinite within this skin we are in.
So when you are asked what you weigh
you don't need to look down at any scale.
Instead simply tell the truth:
tell everyone how you
weigh whole universes
and storms and scars and stories too."

The carving was ancient, hidden high up on a sheer rock face. Translated, it said:
"You climb as well as Anghim."
More were found, on other mountains Anghim had climbed, thousands of years ago.
The last we found simply said "Anghim is satisfied".
On Olympus Mons, on Mars.

Ah, I see; from his Medium post or whatever it was 'I just think it’s a really toxic place, and that there’s no way to “win” the fights I keep compulsively getting into there.'
And not at all because of all the private medical information that he helped distribute in blatant violation of the law.
Got it. :)
