We've published a zine version of "At the Turning of the Tide," an account of the first year of the second Trump administration including an analysis of how to fight our way out of the Trump era together.

Please print these out and distribute them far and wide.

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

It's a new Catnesday, and time for all of you to meet Soul, one out of two cute cat portraits I've drawn for @inowutimaboutsun

It was really fun to try to capture this kitty's playful and energetic vibe- the portrait of this fluffy baby's sibling will be coming soon!
