The Future of Free Speech
The Future of Free Speech@SpeechFuture·
From the Red Scare to Brandenburg, history shows that fear makes bad First Amendment law. As AI reshapes how we think and speak, @corbinkbarthold makes the case for holding the line on free expression.

I have a new piece up with the fine folks at @SpeechFuture on my favorite topic lately -- why AI outputs are protected by the First Amendment. The First Amendment has weathered anarchists, communists, and more; it can weather the chatbots, too.

📢 Let's clear the air: There’s a lot of misinformation about Section 230. The reality is that today's user-driven Internet simply wouldn't exist without it. As we mark the 30th anniversary of the law that helped create the Internet, we're debunking some common misconceptions.

Are AI outputs free speech under the First Amendment? Yes. AI is polling down there with ICE and the Democratic Party. Meanwhile, I'm like Butters in South Park, unironically marveling at how awesome it is. So maybe I'm just asking for a ratio, but I wrote a whole big paper arguing that AI outputs deserve First Amendment protection. The case has little to do with whether you like AI, and a lot to do with how scared you should be of letting the government control what AI says. I threw a ton into this thing, and I hope my law nerds will read it all. Link and some highlights below.

My full statement on the National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence:
Andy Jung tweet media
Director Michael Kratsios@mkratsios47

Today, the @WhiteHouse released a commonsense National AI Policy Framework that ensures every American benefits from AI. As @POTUS has said — we need one federal AI policy, not a 50 state patchwork. This gets us there. Eager to work with Congress on this important legislation.

6) practice what Carr himself said in 2019: “The FCC does not have a roving mandate to police speechin the name of the ‘public interest.’”
