Can AI help people change their minds? At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Alice Siu shared research showing that AI-assisted deliberation can shift opinions just as effectively as human-moderated discussions.
“Trust us bro.” At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @brooksben.bsky.social warned that the public AI companies and governments are asking the public to trust systems they cannot meaningfully inspect or scrutinize.
How can we give social media users power over their feed? @noupside.bsky.social discusses ways to reshape the relationship between platforms, users, and their phones at our #FreeSpeechSummit2025.
“If [the West] did not have press freedom, we would have to invent it for them." That's what a KGB operative said about its mission to discredit democracies by instigating hate against Jews and creating support for hate speech bans. @mchangama.bsky.social explains:
People are comfortable telling AI their deepest, darkest secrets… as long as they know they’re talking to AI. At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Alice Siu explores this interesting phenomenon and what it means for how we communicate in the AI era.
"It's insane." The EU government has launched a new app that lets people verify their identities to use social media. In a @reason.com interview with @nickgillespie.bsky.social, @jkosseff.bsky.social asks: Would you really want to upload your ID to the government in order to post online?
“AI is never treated as a neutral or technical tool.” Ge Chen explained how China’s AI regulations go far beyond content moderation, embedding censorship directly into AI systems while also using AI proactively for state propaganda.
If AI can beat one of the world’s top economists at his own game, what does that mean for the rest of us? At the #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Tyler Cowen explains how we can grow with AI.
In 2021, Congress introduced a bill that would have exempted “health misinformation” from Section 230 protection — defined by the HHS Secretary. But would those who supported that law at the time still be okay with handing that power to an unelected bureaucrat today?
Are deepfake bans protecting democracy, or restricting political speech too broadly? At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Kyung Sin Park argued that Korea’s AI laws ban all electoral deepfakes, including satire, parody, and even truthful content.

Trump's budget isn't a MAGA budget. It's not even a MAHA budget. It's a war budget—and I'll be ripping it up and writing a new one.

Now Fox News is running with how Pam Bondi made promises of transparency that never surfaced and that maybe the reason she is out is to keep her from being deposed by the House later this month on her handling of the Epstein files. No mention of Trump and how she was following his orders.

The Shia LaBeouf and Mia Goth divorce was kept secret for a full year — and it changed everything. While Shia LaBeouf spiraled into another arrest, Mia Goth quietly booked Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Marvel's Blade, Christopher Nolan's Odyssey, AND Star Wars. This is the story of how one

CNN just played the montage and it’s devastating — months of Trump swearing gas prices would drop, back to back to back. He was so confident. He was so wrong. The tape doesn’t lie.
Even in non-political discussions, half or more posts are "created content" trolling for clicks but average workaday Joes and Jills who don't breathe news night and day ... buy it, literally.

Claude Opus 4.8 just dropped and people are split on whether it's a major upgrade or just incremental improvements. Agentic coding bumped up 5% with other benchmarks seeing modest gains. But the real story is Mythos dropping in weeks and apparently no system is safe from it.
All these people that were talking about the economic decline of Russia are completely wrong! Nothing shows more activity than the smokestacks of factories. They even ran out of smokestacks, so they improvised free-air smoke plumes.
