Published: Oct. 11, 2022, 8:35 p.m.

b'We take a hard look at the White House\\u2019s new AI Bill of Rights and discover that the Eye of Sauron is actually ethical according to its principles. We then go in on academia and journalism for, in their own ways, laundering the interests and influence of the tech sector. \\n\\nAlso, the new TMK book club starts next week in the patreon feed!
