Most young people are worried, as they should be, about the impact that AI will have on their lives and their ability to earn a decent living.

A country where the president can ask election officials to 'find' another 11,780 votes and not be prosecuted, while citizens are brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights is not a nation of laws.
