@MunSecConf @sundarpichai @GabrielMariya @KerstiKaljulaid @IanBremmer During @IanBremmer's @MunSecCof panel on AI, Google CEO @sundarpichai and Estonian Foreign Minister @ElinaValtonen mention the platforms' AI accord as though it were a fact on the ground, but, I can find zero evidence that it has been released in any final form. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

During the evening main-stage session, Google CEO Pichai and Estonian Foreign Minister Valtonen mention the AI accord, but it has yet to be released for public review. What gives?? #MSC2024

@Kent_Walker @sundarpichai @FT Thanks - I'm also interested in seeing the final draft of the joint accord on Deceptive AI Election Content. Press reports have it being released during the #MSC2024, today.

@Kent_Walker Will you also be releasing the "AI Accord" on election disinformation agreed to by Google, Meta, OpenAI and others?

Low turnout in Hudson County (16% of registered voters) is how the Machine maintains control over local government. Don't complain if you're not showing up. #Hoboken

Musk has only himself to blame for the mass exodus of advertisers from this cesspool. But he's attempting to deflect this blame on (and bully into silence) any who shed light on his catastrophic mistakes since taking over Twitter. A 🧵 freepress.net/news/press-rel… #StopToxicTwitter

I'm shocked, shocked that major ISPs like AT&T are lobbying against a new FCC rule that would no longer let them hide their Byzantine broadband-fee structures from customers. How dare we expect price-gouging behemoths to be accountable & transparent. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20…

Seen in the #HudsonRiver just off #Hoboken's Pier A on Friday afternoon: Large schools of what I deduced to be Gizzard Shad. Thousands of them were circling near the surface with mouths open (plankton feeding?). Many broke the surface causing some turbulence. cc: @riverkeeper

Restricting access to books limits New Jerseyans right to access information. Cedar Grove library must resist these attempts at censorship and keep Gender Queer on the shelves.

Soybean aphids are swarming #Hoboken right now. They're small, greenish and gnat-like. Don't know why they've appeared here in such large numbers. I don't recall ever seeing this here. Possibly due to the warm winter.
