The test for government AI should be improving service delivery.

Friday is the amicus deadline in the OpenAI copyright case, and the core question is simple:
Does training an AI model replace the books and articles it learned from, or make something new?
Fair use has always protected the second. Courts shouldn’t rewrite it for AI.

Washington froze $10B in child care funds. Three Democratic governors went the other way:
