While Georgia courts have blocked efforts to require officials to hand-count ballots, the damage is already done. @isabelalinzer & @timharper1 write that foreign adversaries can use the narrative to spread election disinformation in November and beyond. justsecurity.org/104229/hand-co…
Georgia courts put a stop to the hand-count rule, but we probably haven't heard the end of it. @timharper1 and I write in @just_security about how the mere attempt at the rule remains fodder for election denial. justsecurity.org/104229/hand-co…
New reporting from Krebs on Security (@BrianKrebs) & @404MediaCo today extends our understanding of the wide scale, surreptitious location tracking of Americans and the sale of that information to #DataBrokers, private investigators, & law enforcement.x.com/jason_koebler/…
New: A surveillance tool government agencies have access to can track everywhere a phone goes without a warrant. Someone with access to the tool tracked a person crossing state lines to go to an abortion clinic, then showed us how it works: 404media.co/inside-the-u-s…
NEW RESEARCH: CDT worked with @GSPIA’s Ford Institute, & @Politus_AI to examine the 2024 U.S. elections & compare offensive and hate speech targeting candidates on X based on race & gender. cdt.org/insights/repor…
And why the link apparently can't be posted, but shows only an error message and not explanation for why it's unshareable/violative
The irony of this is that it appears X got rid of the page explaining its once existent "hacked materials" policy. So it's unclear why Klippenstein was suspended. help.x.com/en/rules-and-p… x.com/kenbensinger/s…

Great to see @JBoorstin cover our new @CenDemTech research on unreliable (and sometimes harmful) voting information from chatbots cnbc.com/video/2024/09/…

New report shows AI-powered chatbots could spread election misinformation
CNBC's Julia Boorstin reports on news on election misinformation.
This piece gives a clear window into the complexities and tensions AI+climate. We should think beyond data centers and focus on specific use cases, like when considering other types of AI-related harms
To the public, Microsoft uses its reputation as an AI & sustainability leader to tell a compelling story: AI will do wonders to help solve the climate crisis. To fossil-fuel firms, Microsoft has a different message: AI will help them drill, baby, drill. 1/ theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

This kind of thing is the real AI existential risk--existential risk to actual unemployed people in Nevada who will be forced to rely on AI architectures with demonstrable fairness and accuracy issues to make decisions that will determine whether they have enough money to live
Nevada will use a Google generative AI model to recommend whether people appealing unemployment denials should recieve benefits or not. It'll be the first state to experiment with the technology to make such a high-stakes government decision. gizmodo.com/googles-ai-wil…
