As more governments put #AI to work, it is important they remain focused on deploying tools fairly + equitably.
In the latest edition of our City AI Connection series, we walk through how leaders can balance community needs with the possibilities of AI. @hbree.bsky.social

Seriously. What’s up with just saying things - “you’re good for a 19-year-old” - and then holding the microphone in the players face.
Amazing to see that Mayor Brandon Scott has included decriminalization of paraphernalia and legalization of Overdose Prevention Sites among his priority bills for #MDGA25 - these are essential steps to save lives and end overdose.
Longtime Sun Copy Chief on decision to cancel his subscription:
"A year ago this month David Smith of Sinclair Broadcasting bought The Sun, and he and co-owner Armstrong Williams have systematically degraded a once-great newspaper, filling its news pages with low-grade pap from Sinclair and Fox 45."
Baltimore's drop in homicides - 23% since last year and a staggering 40% from two years ago - should be a national story. Mayor Scott's Group Violence Reduction Strategy, which prioritizes resources to those most at risk and community engagement, should be studied and replicated.
👏👏👏👏
“The point is, what have you been doing for the last 12 years?” [Smith] challenged.
“Well, we’ve been putting out a damn good paper, even though you haven’t been reading it,” Davis responded.
Truly Smith is such a buffoon. We deserve better villains…
It’s a hackneyed phrase but this is truly a searing indictment of American Jewish complacency over the massacre taking place in Gaza and an incredible, raw piece of writing by @joellenovey.bsky.social. Future generations will judge us for our actions. jewschool.com/on-finding-o...
Essential report from @sentencingproject.bsky.social: "The Real Cost of ‘Bad News’: How Misinformation is Undermining Youth Justice Policy in Baltimore"
The Sinclair Sun, the primary media outlet pushing false narratives about a non-existent crime wave in Baltimore, is now wondering why "views of the city as unsafe persist."

A devastating chronicle of the damage that Sinclair and David Smith have done to Baltimore and the Baltimore Sun.
“There’s nobody at The Sun who doesn’t have résumés out,” says David Zurawik, The Sun’s former media writer. “What’s left of The Sun will die.

Much appreciation to @wbaltv11.bsky.social and David Collins for this extensive look inside the life-saving operation of OnPoint NYC and efforts to bring similar overdose prevention sites to Maryland.

Another day, another nonsense front-page story in Sinclair CEO David Smith’s @baltimoresun.bsky.social targeting DJS from the “Sinclair National Desk” citing Fox45 - which they now have to do because all of the qualified criminal justice reporters have resigned in disgust. Baltimore deserves better.
Thank you Senator Van Hollen! Advocacy works! www.vanhollen.senate.gov/news/press-r...
Hadn't seen one of these yet, so here's a Baltimore starter pack. Who do we need to add?

Is Baltimore here?
