Earlier this year, after receiving emails from people in the throes of AI psychosis, I began to keep in touch with one man as he journeyed to recovery.
I'm grateful to James that he was willing to go on record. He wanted people to know: humanlike chatbots are dangerous.
NEW: People are developing antisocial and obsessive behavior after using AI — some have even taken their own lives.
One journalist started getting emails from people in mental health crisis after using AI.
She dug in, and found companies putting profits over users' lives.
Latest from me for @XtraMagazine’s Third Places series! I spoke with owners of women’s sports bars about why they feel it’s more important than ever to open their doors.

A feature from me about post-majority support services and the former youth in care ineligible for support. Thanks to Lily, @CaringSociety, @ChildSpotlight and more for speaking with me for part one of this two part series!
Lily Ieroniawákon Deer is still healing from the trauma she experienced growing up in the child welfare system. This story is part one of a two-part series produced as part of Spotlight: Child Welfare, a collaborative journalism project.

Post-majority support services are supposed to help Indigenous youth who went through the child welfare system -- but what about the youth who are above the age cut-off for services, but still need that support?

This is part one of a two-part series for @ChildSpotlight published in @easterndoor this week, which shares Lily Ieroniawákon Deer's story and her concern that former youth in care like her are being "left behind" by post-majority support services. 2/3

“There’s still a lot of things I don’t know,” Deer said. “It’s help with navigating getting your medicare card, your driver’s licence, IDs, and you just need help to have those life skills...I just didn't have that."
Grateful to Lily and the Spotlight team for this project ❤️ 3/3
Stop what you’re doing and watch this immediately.
Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived.
They are demanding action from Mark Carney.
Their testimony is our failure.
Kyle Atkwiroton Canatonquin provided his new Kanesatake address to the clerk behind the counter at the Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec in a transaction he thought would be routine. But he got back a bewildering answer: “Do you mean Oka?” easterndoor.com/2025/02/14/k…
from me: @survivorssec, a group set up to investigate Canada's longest-running residential school, has been told by CIRNAC that they will be receiving $0 funding this year, the result of a surplus that the group says they don't have. (1/5)

Laura Arndt, the group's lead, reached out to CIRNAC asking for clarity, but said she's had no response. Two elders I spoke to for this article, who attended the school, said that this is another way for the govt to hide the truth of what happened there. (5/5)
