Anti-AI protests

The Internet Review — The Nightmare of the 2020s is Alive in Portland for August 15, 2025 — The Anti-AI Protests Have Arrived in Portland, and This is Only the Beginning

Yesterday, in a "holy crap we need to get out of the house" day, Charlene and I went down to the Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historical Park, wandered through the exhibits there, and then down into Oakland. We spent quite a while in the park, and after a lunch in a downtown that desperately needs more street activation on a Sunday afternoon, the lowrider club with their really loud audio systems wasn't our scene, but I was struck by some of the graffiti and stickers that indicated people in urban settings are thinking about relationships with technology in ways that we out in the burbs probably aren't addressing similarly.
