The Media Has the AI Threat All Wrong

Essay arguing that media coverage of AI existential-risk narratives distracts from more immediate harms of AI deployment, including labor displacement, surveillance, and concentration of corporate power, and contrasts doomsday framing with climate change and geopolitical risk.

Get Ready to Learn About TESCREAL

Matt Mikalatos explains TESCREAL, the term coined by computer scientist Timnit Gebru and philosopher Émile P. Torres for a bundle of ideologies — transhumanism, extropianism, singularitarianism, cosmism, rationalism, effective altruism and longtermism — that he describes as billionaires and technologists pushing personal scientific projects while accepting fatal risks to people as the price of an "existential" need to advance the technology.

A Three-Facet Framework for AI Alignment

Essay proposing three distinct facets of AI alignment: control (the system cannot cause unacceptably bad outcomes even if trying), intent alignment (the system tries to do what the user wants), and values alignment (the system refuses widely unacceptable actions). Uses a stock-trading agent scenario to show how the facets can conflict.

Towards Critical Artificial Intelligence Literacies

Authors
Olivia Guest, Marcela Suarez, Iris van Rooij
Venue
Zenodo open-access publication
Published
December 2025

An open-access paper on Zenodo describing Critical AI Literacies (CAILs): ways of thinking about AI that reject framings from the technology industry, naive computationalism, and dehumanizing ideologies, and that center human cognition and the integrity of research and education. Co-authored by Olivia Guest and Iris van Rooij, among others.

All Tech Is Human Responsible Tech Job Board

A free job board from All Tech Is Human, a nonprofit working to grow the responsible technology field, listing openings in AI policy, trust and safety, AI ethics, responsible AI governance, digital rights, and adjacent roles at companies, nonprofits, governments, and universities. Listings are free to browse without an account.

Why I recommend it: If you want to work on the governance side of AI rather than the engineering side, this is one of the few boards that aggregates exactly those roles. Filter by policy, trust and safety, or responsible AI and check weekly — the field is small and good postings move fast.

Magnifica Humanitas: Pope Leo XIV's Encyclical on AI

Pope Leo XIV's 15 May 2026 encyclical on safeguarding the human person in the age of artificial intelligence, including a section on the need to "disarm words".

Why I recommend it: A primary source from the Catholic Church. Long, but worth reading directly rather than through summaries.

Cheap Agents, Alumni Shirts, and Elias Thorne

Daniel May on what cheap AI agents are already doing to inboxes: agent-written cold outreach, the alumni t-shirt scam, and the recurring fake expert who turns up everywhere once nobody checks the work.

Why I recommend it: Free to read. Worth twenty minutes if you send or receive cold messages: it shows exactly what automated outreach looks like from the other side, and why a message that reads fluently now proves nothing about whether a person wrote it.

Luddite Lab

A DAIR Institute project for unions, labor organizations and worker-organizers dealing with AI and automation at work: case studies, primers and a resource library on worker-led oversight of new technology.

From the site: Research and case studies.

Why I recommend it: Free. Written from an explicitly pro-worker position, which it states openly — useful if you want the labor perspective on workplace AI rather than the vendor one.

AI Security for Dummies

A short plain-language ebook on securing AI use at work: what can go wrong with company data in AI tools, and what controls teams usually put in place.

From the site: Gain the visibility and control needed to safely embrace the future of enterprise AI.

Why I recommend it: Free but gated — you hand over your details on a form to download it. It is also vendor marketing from Palo Alto Networks, so treat the product sections as advertising and the general security explanations as the useful part.

Apollo Research

An AI safety lab focused on "scheming" — models that pursue their own goals while appearing aligned. Publishes research on detecting deception, evaluations and governance advice.

From the site: Apollo Research is focused on reducing risks from scheming frontier AI. Our goal is to secure frontier AI systems across development, deployment, and governance.

Why I recommend it: Their research and blog are free to read. Apollo also sells a monitoring product, so read claims about their own tool as company claims.

Saving Face: Investigating the Ethical Concerns of Facial Recognition Auditing

Authors
Inioluwa Deborah Raji, Timnit Gebru, Margaret Mitchell, Joy Buolamwini, Joonseok Lee, Emily Denton
Venue
Preprint, not yet peer-reviewed
Published
January 2020
ID
arXiv:2001.00964

Raji and colleagues examine the ethics of the audits themselves: who is photographed, who consented, and what an auditor owes the people in the test set.

From the site: Although essential to revealing biased performance, well intentioned attempts at algorithmic auditing can have effects that may harm the very populations these measures are meant to protect. This concern is even more salient while auditing biometric systems such as facial recognition, where the data is sensitive and t…

Why I recommend it: A rare paper about the ethics of doing ethics work. Free on arXiv.
