Excited to see the work of the last year come to fruition! I've been working with journalists, newsrooms, academics and civil society over the past year to produce this responsible AI Adoption Guide for newsrooms. Take a look! partnershiponai.org/ai-for-newsroo…

🚨 Holy shit… Stanford just exposed that every major AI company is using your private conversations to train their models by default. They analyzed the privacy policies of OpenAI, Google, Meta, Anthropic, Microsoft, and Amazon. Reviewed 28 separate documents across all 6 companies. The findings are worrisome. Every prompt you type. Every file you upload. Every personal detail you share. All of it feeds directly into model training the moment you hit send. That health question you asked ChatGPT at 2am? Training data. Legal situation you described to Claude? Training data. The photo you uploaded to Gemini? Training data. Some companies retain your conversations INDEFINITELY. Amazon, Meta, and OpenAI have no confirmed deletion timeline for certain chat data. Your most private conversations could sit on their servers forever. It gets worse for kids. Four out of six companies allow children aged 13-18 to use their chatbots, and most don’t treat children’s data any differently. Kids’ conversations are likely getting fed into model training by default. Kids who can’t legally consent to it. Here’s something most people missed: enterprise customers are opted OUT of training by default. You, the consumer paying $20/month? Opted IN. Companies paying thousands? Protected automatically. There’s a two-tiered privacy system and you’re on the wrong side of it. OpenAI even frames the opt-in with guilt. Their settings page says “Improve the model for everyone.” Stanford’s researchers flagged this as a textbook dark pattern designed to make you feel bad for protecting your own data. Meta’s contractors told reporters they routinely see identifiable personal information in the chat data they review. Journalists were able to positively identify at least one real person from chat transcripts shared with them. The privacy policies themselves? Stanford had to dig through 6 separate documents just for OpenAI alone. Most real disclosures were buried in sub-policies no normal person would ever find. The researchers said it was challenging for THEM to piece it together. For consumers? “Practically impossible.” Only Microsoft explicitly stated they try to remove personal data like names, phone numbers, and addresses before training. The rest are either vague about it or completely silent.

I spent sixteen months reporting this story. It was deep, painful, and at times unbearable. It follows how surveillance tech is rewriting Gaza in real time — and what it’s doing to the people inside it. Read in @NYMag nymag.com/intelligencer/…

Israel murdered a Reuters journalist. In a hospital. As rescue workers tried to recover his body, Israel murdered them. Live on TV. Along with three more journalists. Apparently "it's complicated".

THESE JOURNALISTS ARE THE BRAVEST OF BRAVE….‼️ Imagine reporting with an Israeli drone above you listening to every word ready to drop a bomb. The bravery and dedication are astonishing and courageous. AT LEAST 242 JOURNALISTS HAVE BEEN MURDERED BY ISRAEL.

⚠️To Whom It May Concern, The occupation is now openly threatening a full-scale invasion of Gaza. For 22 months, the city has been bleeding under relentless bombardment from land, sea, and air. Tens of thousands have been killed, and hundreds of thousands wounded. If this madness does not end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop. Please share this message and tag everyone who has the power to help end this massacre. Silence is complicity.

هذه وصيّتي، ورسالتي الأخيرة. إن وصلَتكم كلماتي هذه، فاعلموا أن إسرائيل قد نجحت في قتلي وإسكات صوتي. بداية السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته يعلم الله أنني بذلت كل ما أملك من جهدٍ وقوة، لأكون سندًا وصوتًا لأبناء شعبي، مذ فتحت عيني على الحياة في أزقّة وحارات مخيّم جباليا للاجئين، وكان أملي أن يمدّ الله في عمري حتى أعود مع أهلي وأحبّتي إلى بلدتنا الأصلية عسقلان المحتلة "المجدل" لكن مشيئة الله كانت أسبق، وحكمه نافذ. عشتُ الألم بكل تفاصيله، وذُقت الوجع والفقد مرارًا، ورغم ذلك لم أتوانَ يومًا عن نقل الحقيقة كما هي، بلا تزوير أو تحريف، عسى أن يكون الله شاهدًا على من سكتوا ومن قبلوا بقتلنا، ومن حاصروا أنفاسنا ولم تُحرّك أشلاء أطفالنا ونسائنا في قلوبهم ساكنًا ولم يُوقِفوا المذبحة التي يتعرّض لها شعبنا منذ أكثر من عام ونصف. أوصيكم بفلسطين، درةَ تاجِ المسلمين، ونبضَ قلبِ كلِّ حرٍّ في هذا العالم. أوصيكم بأهلها، وبأطفالها المظلومين الصغار، الذين لم يُمهلهم العُمرُ ليحلموا ويعيشوا في أمانٍ وسلام، فقد سُحِقَت أجسادهم الطاهرة بآلاف الأطنان من القنابل والصواريخ الإسرائيلية، فتمزّقت، وتبعثرت أشلاؤهم على الجدران. أوصيكم ألّا تُسكتكم القيود، ولا تُقعِدكم الحدود، وكونوا جسورًا نحو تحرير البلاد والعباد، حتى تشرق شمسُ الكرامة والحرية على بلادنا السليبة. أُوصيكم بأهلي خيرًا، أوصيكم بقُرّة عيني، ابنتي الحبيبة شام، التي لم تسعفني الأيّام لأراها تكبر كما كنتُ أحلم. وأوصيكم بابني الغالي صلاح، الذي تمنيت أن أكون له عونًا ورفيق دربٍ حتى يشتدّ عوده، فيحمل عني الهمّ، ويُكمل الرسالة. أوصيكم بوالدتي الحبيبة، التي ببركة دعائها وصلتُ لما وصلت إليه، وكانت دعواتها حصني، ونورها طريقي. أدعو الله أن يُربط على قلبها، ويجزيها عنّي خير الجزاء. وأوصيكم كذلك برفيقة العمر، زوجتي الحبيبة أم صلاح بيان، التي فرّقتنا الحرب لأيامٍ وشهورٍ طويلة، لكنها بقيت على العهد، ثابتة كجذع زيتونة لا ينحني، صابرة محتسبة، حملت الأمانة في غيابي بكلّ قوّة وإيمان. أوصيكم أن تلتفوا حولهم، وأن تكونوا لهم سندًا بعد الله عز وجل. إن متُّ، فإنني أموت ثابتًا على المبدأ، وأُشهد الله أني راضٍ بقضائه، مؤمنٌ بلقائه، ومتيقّن أن ما عند الله خيرٌ وأبقى. اللهم تقبّلني في الشهداء، واغفر لي ما تقدّم من ذنبي وما تأخّر، واجعل دمي نورًا يُضيء درب الحرية لشعبي وأهلي. سامحوني إن قصّرت، وادعوا لي بالرحمة، فإني مضيتُ على العهد، ولم أُغيّر ولم أُبدّل. لا تنسوا غزة… ولا تنسوني من صالح دعائكم بالمغفرة والقبول. أنس جمال الشريف 06.04.2025 هذا ما أوصى بنشره الحبيب الغالي أنس عند استشهاده. إدارة الصفحة

At a complete, utter loss. Journalists @AnasAlSharif0, Anas Al-Hasi, and Mohammed Quraiqa were killed after the IDF bombed the Al-Jazeera tent at Al-Shifa Hospital. It was 673 days of non-stop coverage by Anas and his team. The Israelis have killed over 250 journalists in Gaza & killed one of the most prolific voices because now the plan is to clean up the crime scene in front of a world that has allowed every crime to be committed against the Palestinians. Innalilahi wa Innalilahi raji’un.

The best, most heroic, and bravest of us. Never stopped reporting even when Israel killed his father and many colleagues, including his close friends Ismail Alghoul and Hossam Shbat. Anas Alsharif. Murdered by Israel tonight in Gaza City. The genocidal regime must be stopped.

Sanctions on every member of the cabinet now. Arms embargo now. Suspend trade now. Canada must end its complicity! x.com/ap/status/1953…

🚨AFP issues a statement saying this is the 1st time in their entire history their journalists on the ground face death by starvation

85% of Gaza’s population have entered the "fifth stage" of malnutrition — the most critical and dangerous phase, which is often irreversible even if food becomes available in the future.

My entire life in politics people have tried to divide Jews and Muslims for cynical purposes. Can't overstate how powerful this solidarity was in obliterating that bullshit.

In just the last 72 hours in Gaza: - A Palestinian girl shot by an Israeli sniper while playing on the beach. - A baby lying beside his amputated leg. - A girl begging her dead father to wake up. - Countless charred bodies pulled from rubble. Hell on earth.

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed: (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

More journalists killed in Gaza than World War 1, World War 2, Vietnam, Yugoslavia & Afghanistan combined

The US-backed distribution of aid in Gaza using ex-military staff is a weaponization of food and a grotesque mockery of humanitarianism. This cruel spectacle is meant to distract from Israel’s plans to forcibly displace all Palestinians from Palestine. Such action is as far away from humanitarian aid as one can go. We call it what it is: A tool of genocide.

Gathering from accounts on the ground, #Israel has massively escalated bombing in #Gaza tonight, with multiple reports of mass civilian casualty incidents, in IDP tented camps in particular. This bombing was hours ago, as evening fell. Almost apocalyptic scenes.

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' ft.com/content/f5fd6f…

For the past two months, Israel has completely cut off the supply of humanitarian aid and items indispensable to the survival of civilians in a clear effort to collectively punish over two million civilians and to make Gaza unlivable. This is genocide in action. amn.st/60112INLP
