Had so much fun talking with @kevintfrazier.bsky.social on @scalinglaws.bsky.social about my research and also AI more generally!

Fordham Law Professor Courtney Cox (@coxlaw.bsky.social) joined Kevin Frazier (@kevintfrazier.bsky.social), a senior editor at Lawfare (@lawfaremedia.org), on Scaling Laws (@scalinglaws.bsky.social) to discuss her forthcoming article, Hardwiring Hercules?.

Sat down to write about the Hugging Face/AI incident. Ended up drawing this instead.

Could AI make sailing a spectator sport?

Sailing has long been a sport that is far easier to take part in than to watch. Now, three Swedish innovators are determined to change that using

Some personal news: Claude said I asked a "sharp" question

Happy 6/7, to all who celebrate

7th Cir. sanctioned another attorney for AI hallucinations in a brief ($5,000 fine) and referred the case to the Illinois bar discipline authority. FN 5 seems like a smart practice. "To avoid memorializing errors, we have chosen not to include . . ." etc. media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/Opin...

"The driver, who was not identified by police, was arrested and charged with operation of a vehicle in a closed section of park/lake, no valid boat registration, and numerous water safety equipment violations." Wake up babe, new "No vehicles in the park" hypo just dropped.

A Tesla driver was arrested after driving a Cybertruck into lake to test the vehicle’s “Wade Mode” feature, according to police

I'll also add AI voice actors in ads. Someone could make money by adding a "listen to ads by humans only" tier of podcast subscription b/c I would pay that!!

I now require students to add a hyperlink to the actual article. Journals should be requiring this as well.

On this day in 1964, Pauli Murray circulated a memo arguing that black and white women would “share a common fate of discrimination” unless Title 7 of the 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibited sex discrimination in employment as well as race discrimination. The memo helped keep the “sex amendment” in T7.

I really hesitate to weigh in here, because the conversation has gotten ugly in a way I find not particularly constructive, but I took a look because the example is copyright law. I've spent hours pouring over the law & legislative record on this for my own research and I have some thoughts.

Kate Sills@katelynsills.com · 4mo ago

It's pencils down at the hackathon. I put 236 years of US copyright law into a git repository. Every Act of Congress from 1790 to today is a commit. Still some work to be done, and things got frantic at the end, but I'm proud of this! github.com/katelynsills...

We didn't deserve this day.

Remember the law-review author who outsourced his writing to generative AI? The one that made me say, "I now know that neither this attorney’s new article nor their old one is worth reading." He outed himself, and it turns out the article in question is as bad as I predicted. Worse, even. 1/

my level of stress has crossed a threshold where i think it would be funny if trump attended the birthright citizenship oral argument and scotus incoherently ruled in his favor 6-3. cortisol levels so high that i can't stop lolling about all my family members in danger. wouldn't it be funny tho

Gentle reminder on this day: saying things like "we are all immigrants (except natives)" actually erases important amounts of American history. There are a lot of people who are not native whose ancestors never immigrated to the US.

I have stolen 12T of KitKats that were in transit and which you were probably hoping to buy in Poland forgive me the world is stressful and I needed a break
