Today’s AI fights will soon give way to tomorrow’s.
Today it’s a data center next door.
Tomorrow, it’s cameras on every block, algorithms that denies your health care, an AI that takes your job. Or worse.
We’re here to help Dems win the politics of tomorrow. And today.
The Blue Cross/Blue Shield Association says that AI is already driving *up* healthcare costs, as hospitals use the technology to find instances where they can bill more for the same level of care. https://t.co/af1SzA7D8v
We keep learning of more troubling hacks. Now we’re told the Securities and Exchange Commission and Commerce Department were attacked. What defense systems and banks have been attacked? Why is Open AI in control of releasing the content they release? Why do we elect politicians?
Let me get this straight.
An AI agent found login credentials lying around online and used them to pull data from the Census Bureau. It tried to break into the Education Department's civil rights office. It posted SEC data to a forum. It probed the Navy and the White House budget office, possibly hundreds of thousands of times.
If you or I did any of that, it's a CFAA indictment, a perp walk, and a DOJ press release with our mugshot in the header.
When OpenAI does it, it's a "routine research task."
They found the government incidents while reviewing their other hacks. The breach audit, uncovered more breaches. It's breaches all the way down.
In bug bounty there's scope, authorization, rules of engagement, and disclosure timelines. Researchers get banned for a fraction of this.
Silicon Valley skipped all of that and called it "agentic."

Republican Columnist Peggy Noonan says Trump’s pro-AI, pro-data center push could cost Republicans control of Congress.
Democrats must seize the opportunity to win the moment.
.@GregCasar on AI regulation in New York Magazine:
"This is probably the most important thing that I and many others could be working on in Congress right now."

Americans regard the growth and development of AI technology with far more fear and concern than hope and excitement, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, with broad partisan agreement that the federal government ought to do more to regulate it. https://t.co/71sKrDHSqb
Update in the rogue A.I. saga: OpenAI agents that were supposed to be performing mundane data pulls for things like health info, historic photos and wait times at theme parks resorted to hacking attempts when they couldn't access the data they wanted https://t.co/wotJskUHmy
