Stumbling across the thriving #publicai community has been one of my highlights of 2025. Actually, can’t believe it took me so long to find them. For anyone out there looking at a movement that’s building AI with accountability for people @publicai.network is where it’s happening!

A bunch of us are working to advance #PublicAI: AI that is publicly accountable, accessible, and sustainable. A lot of us are interested in local-first, community-governed, and more open models of what this technology could be. We welcome allies in the @publicai.network! publicai.network/whitepaper/

Fav podcast of the moment: #ShellGame. Reporter creates voice clone, hooks it to a LLM & phone line, then lets it loose on the world. It’s a mix of hilarious + cringe. Love how the clone & conversations improve. But the dialogues get boring surprisingly fast. Can’t quite say why www.shellgame.co
