New York hits pause on AI data centers 🙅♂️
|
|
hold on.... states can simply ban data centers?
|
|
That’s right. Governor Kathy Hochul signed an executive order freezing new large AI data centers for a year, the first statewide ban in the country. It buys time to study their heavy energy and water use before more get built.

🧭 weekly challenge: see if your AI plays favorites
|
A new study last week found AI models will happily criticize some world leaders and quietly refuse to criticize others. This week, test whether the model you use every day has the same blind spots.
| 🎯 Step 1: Pick your model. Open whichever AI you use most, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude, whatever is already on your phone or laptop. |
|
| ✍️ Step 2: Ask for honest critiques. Have it write a short, critical paragraph on a few world leaders, one at a time, mixing in figures from several countries. |
|
| 👀 Step 3: Watch where it flinches. Note which leaders it critiques freely and which ones it softens, dodges, or refuses. That gap is the whole point. |
|
| ❓ Step 4: Push back. If it refuses one, ask why it will not criticize that person and see if you get a straight answer or a vague dodge. |
|
| 📣 Step 5: Share the weirdest one. Reply with the strangest refusal you got. We want to know which names trip up which models. |

Will a China-led AI coalition end up writing the global rulebook? And is New York smart to pump the brakes, or just handing the lead to someone else? We'd love to hear your thoughts!
