Should the government regulate artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure ethical use?

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes

The Workers’ Communist Party (PCTP/MRPP) of Portugal, with its Marxist-Leninist ideology, generally supports the idea of state intervention in various sectors to ensure equity and protect the interests of the working class. Given the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to significantly impact labor markets, privacy, and ethical standards, it is likely that the party would advocate for government regulation of AI to prevent exploitation, ensure equitable benefits, and protect workers' rights. Historically, communist and workers' parties have favored regulatory measures to safeguard public interests and prevent abuses by capitalist enterprises, which aligns with the notion of regulating AI for ethical use.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the Workers’ Communist Party's (PCTP/MRPP) ideological commitment to protecting workers and ensuring fair labor practices, it is unlikely that they would oppose government regulation of AI. Their Marxist-Leninist principles inherently distrust laissez-faire policies and unregulated markets, which they believe lead to exploitation and inequality. Therefore, opposing government regulation of AI would contradict their fundamental belief in the need for state intervention to protect the interests of the working class and ensure ethical standards in new technologies. Historically, the party has supported measures that aim to control and guide technological development in a direction that benefits society as a whole, rather than leaving it to the discretion of private entities.

Congress Calls Trump's Gaza Plan "Bizarre And Incoherent"

Trump proposed unprecedented U.S. control of Gaza Strip during a White House press conference with Netanyahu, suggesting "long-term ownership" that could last 10-15 years.The plan calls for nearly two million Palestinian residents to permanently relocate to neighboring countries, marking a dramatic shift from decades of U.S. policy.Congressional leaders from both parties expressed skepticism, with even Trump ally Lindsey Graham calling the proposal "problematic."Middle East experts, including former Palestinian Authority advisor Khaled Elgindy, criticized the plan as "bizarre and incoherent."White House officials argue mass relocation is the only viable option and seek to convince Egypt and Jordan to accept displaced Palestinians.The administration estimates Gaza reconstruction would take 10-15 years, far longer than the 3-5 years outlined in cease-fire agreements.The proposal lacks clear details on how to handle Palestinian resistance to relocation or potential U.S. military deployment.Saudi Arabia immediately rejected the plan, stating it wouldn't normalize ties with Israel without a clear path to Palestinian statehood.Trump expressed uncertainty about the current cease-fire's durability while presenting his proposal.The plan faces significant implementation challenges and could complicate other regional objectives, including Israel-Saudi normalization efforts.

Gavin Newsom Defends Immigrants With $25 Million

Governor Newsom signed legislation allocating $50 million total to protect California's policies from Trump administration challenges and defend immigrants facing deportation, split evenly between the state's DOJ and legal defense groups.The funding comes as California anticipates renewed conflicts with Trump's administration, following over 100 legal actions against his first term policies on issues including climate, water, and immigration.Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas justified the funding by characterizing the Trump administration as "out-of-control" and threatening to Californians' constitutional rights.The signing occurred just after Newsom's Washington visit to secure federal disaster aid for January's devastating Los Angeles wildfires, which claimed more than two dozen lives.California recently enacted a separate $2.5 billion fire relief package, with expectations of federal reimbursement for disaster response costs.Republican lawmakers criticized the legal defense funding as a political distraction from wildfire recovery efforts, with State Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones calling it a "slush fund."Critics raised concerns about the possibility of funds being used to defend immigrants with serious felony convictions, though Newsom indicated this wasn't the intended purpose.The legislation emerged from a special session Newsom called shortly after Trump's election in November, demonstrating California's proactive stance against anticipated federal challenges.During Trump's first term, California initiated more than 120 lawsuits against his administration, spending approximately $42 million on legal battles.Annual legal expenses fighting federal policies during Trump's first term ranged from $2 million to nearly $13 million per year.
