🎉 Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Institute for Ethics in AI Fifth Annual Lecture at Jesus College (@JesusOxford), University of Oxford (@UniofOxford). We were delighted to welcome Professor @CassSunstein, Senior Inaugural Fellow of the Accelerator Fellowship Programme and founder and director of the Behavioural Economics and Public Policy Program at Harvard Law School (@Harvard_Law), for his lecture, ‘Liberal AI’. Professor Sunstein explored how artificial intelligence can help advance the core goals of a liberal society. It was wonderful to see so many of you there. A recording of the lecture will be made available in the coming weeks. 🔗Learn more about the Institute for Ethics in AI: oxford-aiethics.ox.ac.uk

Today we wish Bob Dylan a happy 85th birthday. Listen to this excerpt from Dylan's Nobel Prize lecture where he reflects on the literary influences that shaped his songwriting. Classic works like 'Moby-Dick', 'All Quiet on the Western Front', and 'The Odyssey' informed his understanding of storytelling and human nature. Hear the full lecture: bit.ly/4kI1Qm5

Just circulated on SSRN: If Roe, Then Buckley. The essay is a challenge to the originalists: The method that motivated overturning Roe, applied consistently, means Buckley must go. Never have "We, the People" said billionaires have the right to control our politicians. buff.ly/E3qXQKP

From Hayek: “To prohibit the use of certain poisonous substances or to require special precautions in their use, to limit working hours or to require certain sanitary arrangements, is fully compatible with the preservation of competition. The only question here is whether in the particular instance the advantages gained are greater than the social costs that they impose.”
