It's been a rough couple news days if you care about the social impact of tech.😞
I've pulled together a couple articles below, but to summarize: AI applications are genuinely hurting people, companies are profiting off it & we have increasing evidence self regulation is a myth.

“For me, it’s always been: first, who am I? I have to know who I am first to know how to navigate the world, because if I become something that I’m not supposed to become, then I’m in the wrong place, whether I’ve made it in other people’s eyes or not.” - Chadwick Boseman 2/2
