Congressional AI Adoption: How Many Lawmakers Actually Use Prompts?
By
–
I think I’m short “they checked out all this AI stuff at some point.” What’s your over/under on members of Congress who have actually, with their own two hands, typed more than 800 words into prompt boxes? I think I’m at “low dozens.”

Would also mention that many people think this would be improved if one could have an API which returned http://
user.is_compromised? and if you were hypothetically capable of writing that API I would think *long and hard* about whether you would want people using it. -
Institutional qualification processes and ethical compliance dilemmas
By
–
