“None of us are making it out alive.” Good perspective. Also try and do meaningful work. Work that is meaningful to you. Not necessarily to everyone else. Meaning brings happiness.

I was proud to be honored at Met Council’s annual legislative breakfast with their Fighting Hate and Discrimination Award. Met Council embodies the essence of “tikkun olam” — “repairing the world” through service — and we all should embrace their core value of caring for one

Outrageous: The House voted to slash food stamps: the single most effective anti-poverty program America has. Food stamps keep 1 in 7 New Yorkers from going hungry. Taking food from struggling families is cruel. The Senate MUST stop this. #ProtectSNAP #NoCutsToSNAP

First bombshell: AI guzzles electricity like a small country. Data centers powering AI (think ChatGPT, image generators) consumed ~460 TWh in 2024—about 2% of global electricity, matching the Netherlands’ entire usage. And it’s doubling every few years. 😲 Why? Training massive

🚨 AI is a GAME-CHANGER… but a ticking TIME BOMB for security! Bad actors are lurking: hacks, weapons, deepfakes + fraud. Thread on the security risks & how US government regulation matters. Buckle up! 🔥 #AISecurity #TechColdWar

It’s expensive being poor on America. Yeah, read that again. Thats why we have a moral responsibly to help those in need. Recent federal cuts will just make life worse for millions of Americans. buzzfeed.com/victoriavoulou…

Like it or not, AI is going to be used in healthcare. We should be mandating its use for good - like diagnosing patients. Not evil - like denying legitimate claims. propublica.org/article/evicor…
