I spoke w/ @AP about the use of inaccurate, insecure AI transcription tools in clinical settings. The stakes are high & the consequences may be grave. We must demand that AI in medicine abide laws and codes of ethics like HIPAA and the Hippocratic Oath. apnews.com/article/ai-art…

We look forward to working with this and future administrations to ensure those words are matched by actions - ensuring all the ancestors who perished at these schools return home ... (2/3)

Thanks to @POTUS for finally offering a formal apology on behalf of the United States government for its role in the Indian Boarding School Program. This long overdue acknowledgement is an important step in the right direction. (1/3)

These people are giving the game away. They want to create a world in which no one has the desire to read, create or think, and eventually no one has the capacity to. Reading, critical thinking, the humanities, are never wastes of time; they are what make us free.

*heavy sigh* How am I expected to circle back on emails when the salmon are running and the leaves are changing and the trails are out there and it is peak fall weather?

It’s finally time for the zooarchaeologists to rise from their slumber to get mad at anatomically incorrect Halloween decorations! @FlintDibble

2. We also ask recipients to speak to what being selected for this honor means to them and their scholarship.

So here are my responses in full: 1. We look to convey the surprise and excitement of receiving word out of the blue for this award, so if you’d think back to the moment you got the call and recreate that moment, that would be my first request.

Princeton chose not to include my responses to their Qs about the #MacFellow award in this announcement—What it was like when I got the call? What the award means to me? What I’m working on now?—bc I asked them to accurately recount my response to Q1 or to not quote me at all. 1/

I have made it one of my top priorities to help tell the story of the trauma of federal Indian boarding school policies with Indigenous voices front and center. On this National Day of Remembrance, we reaffirm our promise to let survivors' voices be heard. doi.gov/priorities/str…

Congress could make it a crime tomorrow for judges to fail to meet ethical disclosure obligations. Seems important, right? In The Punishment Bureaucracy, I explained with lots of examples why criminal law is not seen as a domain for regulating the behavior of powerful people.

For more, check out my latest @TeenVogue column on mask bans and how they are the new ugly laws teenvogue.com/story/mask-ban…

IMPORTANT: Every time a politician introduces a mask ban, they always claim there will be health exceptions. Remember, health exceptions don't work. They increase racial profiling, often still require mask removal, and violate people's privacy rights. jewsformaskrights.com/resources/heal…
