34 years ago, May 24 1990, a pipe bomb exploded in Earth First! and IWW organizer Judi Bari's station wagon as she drove through Oakland with her comrade Darryl Cherney, injuring both passengers. Authorities unsuccessfully attempted to pin the bombing on the activists themselves

This right here!! Using AI to make investigations MORE human and participatory … “We must make it our business to bring people to the future with us,” Reynolds-Tyler said of AI adoption in investigative reporting. @trinattrill
“We didn’t use AI to replace what would’ve otherwise been done manually. We used AI precisely because it was the type of task that would’ve taken so long to do manually that [it would distract from] other investigative work.” buff.ly/4ajOyWZ
