QuoteJan. 6 rioter who encouraged violence against police hired to work in Trump's DOJ
A Jan. 6 rioter was caught on video encouraging insurrectionists to "kill" police officers. Now he has a job in the Justice Department.
Two weeks after Election Day 2024, Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama assured the public that Donald Trump wouldn't choose "a criminal" for a governmental position. Soon after, the president started adding politically aligned ex-cons to his administrative team.
But the latest example of the phenomenon is the most breathtaking. The New York Times reported:
A former F.B.I. agent who was charged with encouraging the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to kill police officers has been named as an adviser to the Justice Department task force that President Trump established to seek retribution against his political enemies. The former agent, Jared L. Wise, is serving as a counselor to Ed Martin, the director of the so-called Weaponization Working Group, according to people familiar with the group's activities.
The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Wise's new role.
QuoteThe White House favours gutting any effective regulation of artificial intelligence, even as more and more experiments confirm that existing large language models are not safely aligned with acceptable political and social norms.
China's platform giants are ploughing huge resources into AI too. The results are no more predictable.
But if there is any prospect that AI development poses a threat to the social and political order Beijing deems acceptable, can anyone be in doubt that it would be halted in its tracks?
That is what the humbling of the platform oligarchs in 2020 betokened.
What analogous guarantee is there in the west?

The red lines for me are material support and incitement to violence. Everything besides that should be an issue for manners, not the criminal code.
