@Forbes covers a new survey showing large bipartisan support for numerous #AI regulations being considered in Congress, alongside a new federal AI agency and international treaties. @meganpoinski @ppc_umd buff.ly/3Q9FfBV

New @PPC_UMD survey found bipartisan majority support for nine major proposals for government regulating #AI, including #deepfakes and AI programs that make decisions which significantly impact people's lives (e.g. in healthcare, banking, criminal justice) buff.ly/3IWy7Vl

AI has thrown a wrench into the government's ability to consult the people, as some public comments have been taken over by bots. VOP's Dr. Steven Kull and JP Thomas have a solution! baltimoresun.com/2023/12/12/saf…


Check me out on the telly!

A new U of Maryland Program for Consultation study survey has found that a bipartisan majority of people say they would favor a ban on stock trade for Members of Congress, the President, Vice President and Supreme Court justices. @stetsonmreports: tinyurl.com/ywnwns2r

Thank you @kevinrkosar for a great piece about our work at @voporg We believe that giving the American people a greater voice in government will help solve difficult problems, reveal common ground, and give policymakers helpful information to better represent voters.

With his days dwindling, Mr. Thomas asked his children to track down his Royal typewriter. “On his last day that he had on this earth,” his son said, “we put the typewriter by his side and he was able to hear the clickety-clack of the Globe again.” trib.al/htJ5eoh

Jack Thomas, who wrote about his cancer diagnosis, has died. "Editing the final details of one’s life is like editing a story for the final time. It’s the last shot an editor has at making corrections, the last rewrite before the roll of the presses." wbur.fm/3C6x5T4

I loved this incredible man. He was one of a kind. Please read his obituary and the story he did about his diagnosis. It received national attention. You won't read a more beautifully-written story. bostonglobe.com/2022/10/03/met…


My best friend forever. I love you, da.

Jack Thomas’ byline appeared in the Boston Globe for an impressive 60 years. Who better, then, to eulogize Thomas than himself? cnn.it/3fGkgr3

As @PostOpinion writes, a bipartisan majority of voters favors greatly restricting the use of solitary confinement, per a @ppc_umd survey. Voters want it limited to 30 days in a row (current average is a few months), and never for minor violations. vop.org/five-in-six-vo…

Solitary confinement is torture. U.S. prisons should stop using it, the Editorial Board writes. wapo.st/3egQEQa

New survey finds large bipartisan common ground on policies to address substance use disorder. Three in four voters favor the federal government spending $10B help provide treatment to all who want it.

We’ll miss you dearly @Eck43, especially your love for the game and the people of Boston.

Jeter getting sick at the thought of Manny Ramirez holding this sign makes me as happy as a clam

The 2004 ALCS remains the gift that keeps on giving.
