We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas

At the premiere of new show “Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness,” Larry David recalls how his mother asked him as a kid why he was never excited about anything — before admitting “tonight, I’m a little excited”

“Regime Change,” Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan’s vivid, rigorous, and unavoidably depressing chronicle of the first year of Trump’s second term in the White House, is “exceptional,” David Remnick writes. https://t.co/aKfX1dVyei

Millie Alcock vs. the logic of 'Hot or Not'. Things got complicated fast. 😭 Watching Millie try to process the logic behind judging people's taste in Superman is the chaotic energy we needed today. Is David Corenswet objectively hot, or is beauty truly subjective? Supergirl

This is Penny. She found the perfect stick today and is determined to retrieve it. Hasn’t moved an inch so far, but her human didn't raise a quitter. 13/10

Over the past 19 years, I've watched @MichelleObama, who never sought a career in the public eye, become a master orator. Her speech yesterday at the opening of the Obama Presidential Center may have been her very best. Moving, direct and powerful.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Today in Chicago, @BarackObama and @MichelleObama reminded Americans how we can be our best as a country, just as they did during their eight years in the White House.

It was a great honor to participate in today’s opening for the Obama Presidential Center, whose purpose of empowering people to make positive change is timely and needed.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.

He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.

He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.

We have nothing to hide. 

Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere. 

The country is watching.

De Niro: I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser.

I can’t love a country that starts stupid and inhumane wars, killing thousands of innocents and indirectly causing the deaths and suffering of millions more.

I can’t love a country that takes healthcare away from millions of people and uses that money to enrich their pals in the Trump-Epstein class.

I can’t love a country that sends out masked militias to shoot citizens in the streets, torture our neighbors, and separate families.

I can’t love a country that’s led by a racist, misogynist, xenophobic tyrant.

And let me just say it: I can’t love a country that’s led by Donald Trump and his sycophant Congress.

I've tried several different kinds of "designer" Oreos.Some are like S'mores and some have different flavors in the filling, including what seems to be jam. Also peanut butter. I'm old-school. Just a plain old Oreo. Bite off the top half, scrape the tasty filling with your teeth, eat the bottom half.

[Maria Shriver @mariashriver]

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”

Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico:

“I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas. 

And unlike Ken, I believe that you, James, believe in unity over division and that you know how to assemble not only Democrats but Independents and Republicans and we need that right now. 

We need unity, we don't need any more division and that's why I'm supporting you.”

Chrétien: When you look at the polls, Canadians have never been more united. Thank you to Donald Trump for that. I should propose him for the Order of Canada, but I cannot succeed. Do you know why?

Rosie: He's not Canadian?

Chrétien: Because we don't give it to a person who has a criminal record.
