“When you’ve stayed in your lane, in insulated communities, and haven’t been around a real diversity of thought, it’s genuinely shocking to discover that other voices are now being heard just as loudly. Maybe louder. And that registers as a threat rather than a correction.”

This seems fair and the MINIMUM place to begin to shape the future so that it serves the Common Good and NOT the insatiable GREED of a few BUNKER-ENABLED and entrenched SMALL men.
Starting January 1st, California will mandate that any use of AI-altered real estate photos in listings be disclosed, and that a link to the unaltered image be included.
It will be a criminal offense to fail to make this disclosure.

Before this post, I shared Bregman's comments on the BBC's CENSORSHIP of his lecture.
Very much worth reading.

Here's the transcript. When I say ‘we had a convicted reality star’, you can add ‘who now rules as the most openly corrupt president in American history’ in your head.

Also, consider:

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

We can talk about that after. And yes on the partial grace.
