If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.

New York considers bill that would ban chatbots from giving legal, medical advice | StateScoop A bill under consideration in New York would provide a private right of action, allowing people to file lawsuits against chatbot owners who violate the law.

A New York bill would ban AI from answering questions related to several licensed professions like medicine, law, dentistry, nursing, psychology, social work, engineering, and more.

The companies would be liable if the chatbots give “substantive responses” in these areas.

Exhausted DOJ Lawyer to Federal Judge: “What Do You Want Me to Do? This Job Sucks” The Trump administration cannot find enough lawyers who are willing and able to defend its fascism in court.

Is it good or bad when government lawyers are in federal court telling judges that their jobs suck and begging for a full night's sleep

Republicans love adding seats to state Supreme Courts! They've done it three times in recent years. This latest court-packing plan will shift Utah's high court far to the right and possibly flip rulings on abortion and gerrymandering.

Democrats should take note that Rs have deemed this acceptable!

JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Wambsganss’ campaign is also being supported by some of the state’s most powerful political groups and donors. Finance disclosures show that, through January 15, Wambsganss has received nearly $2.3 million. Of that total, slightly more than half has come from three groups: Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick’s Texas Senate Leadership Fund; Texans for Lawsuit Reform, a political action committee that represents big business interests; and Texans United for a Conservative Majority, which is primarily funded by Dunn, the far-right oil billionaire. Rehmet has, over the same time period, raised roughly $346,000—most of it coming from donations of $100 or less.

Leigh Wambsganss raised nearly $2.3 million for the SD9 district, much of it coming from three billionaire-funded PACs.

Taylor Rehmet raised $346,000, most of it coming from donations of $100 or less. His biggest donor gave him $12K, and a bunch of local unions also cut him larger checks.

Government by AI? Trump Administration Plans to Write Regulations Using Artificial Intelligence The Transportation Department, which oversees the safety of airplanes, cars and pipelines, plans to use Google Gemini to draft new regulations. “We don’t need the perfect rule,” said DOT’s top lawyer....

The plan to use AI has alarmed some at DOT, which regulates everything from air travel to pipelines.

Why, some staffers wondered, would the government outsource the writing of critical standards to a new technology notorious for making mistakes?

like are these achievements still meaningful when the first, second, and fourth amendments are being ignored by federal masked goons patrolling the streets with guns, murdering people in broad daylight? Yes they are, but they feel less important now I guess
