How to talk about "AI" without adding to the anthropomorphization

Emily M. Bender and Alex Hanna's Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000 newsletter on word choices that stop us describing software as if it thinks, feels or understands.

Why I recommend it: Written by two of AI hype's best-known critics, so it argues a position — but the writing tips are practical for anyone presenting about AI at work.

Global Organizations Announce Five-Year Goal to Help More Than Three Billion People Use AI in Their Own Language and Voice

Gates Foundation press release announcing a five-year partnership of 60 signatories — frontier AI labs, researchers, companies, governments, community organizations, and philanthropic groups — to expand AI access across languages and voices.

Why I recommend it: A commitment announcement, not an outcome report. Read it for who has signed on and what they say they will do; the hard part is whether the resulting models and data actually serve the communities named.
