The political right hates AI a little less than the left, but not by super much, and some forces from the emerging America First movement are getting ready to protest AI’s invasiveness and capacity for manipulation. The org is called Humans First, and they’re trying to have a 50501-style nationwide protest about it on July 18th. If both sides cooperate on this one, good things can actually happen, so this should get talked about. A lot. https://www.humansfirst.com/
This feels super weird. Would they turn liberals away if they showed up? (Or at least tell them to go protest across the street because “this side is for anti-globalists” or whatever.) I dunno, just seems odd to try to create a popular movement specifically by alienating people who would agree with them on that particular issue.
I’m going to see if my DSA Chapter can get some people to these protests and hand out lit.
