Content warning: Important question about Open AI use by the Tumbler Ridge Shooter - My post contains details that are disturbing.
โThe suspect was able to then open a second ChatGPT account, despite being flagged by OpenAI systems in the past, and "continue planning scenarios involving gun violenceโ.โ
The BBC, CBC and other media are only focusing on half the story. But the quote above almost gets there! Hey @… can you help highlight this in your reporting??
Yes, it is extremely important that OpenAI tells the authorities if obviously dangerous planning is happening. But we should also be asking a second question:
Should we as a society allow automated tools to be created that can help plan โscenarios involving gun violenceโ?
This is not an "age verification" question. As far as I'm concerned, a computer system should not be designed or be allowed to counsel people of any age on how to kill others. That is what ChatGPT is likely to have done here. There is no limit on what any LLM/AI system can say to users.
That is a problem that must be regulated.
This might also be an issue of 'sober second thought' @…

Semi-regular query to see if anyone else remembers CBC Vancouver's "The Dog and Trombone", written by Jurgen Gothe and Bill Phillips; and, more to the point, if they've got recordings of it, especially episode 5 featuring Hap Hafner's cousin Hugo?

Canadian #Fediverse activists! Listen to and share Senator Paula Simons @…'s excellent CBC interview on the Jan 8, 2026 edition of As it Happens!
"Mark Carney is paying me for my Sober Second Thought: So here it is: Why are you giving the imprimatur of your Government to this website?โ
So many great words said!!
Her segment begins at 27:10.

If you are really interested and excited about Broomgate you should perhaps think about therapy. But #CBC has a 6-part podcast that you can listen to in case you want to sink deeper into the subject matter.

Good Morning #Canada
Tod Maffin, former #CBC Broadcaster, is now referred to as an expert on Canadian culture and Identity, and a viral content creator. If you have followed Tod over the past few years you have seen a progression from explaining Canadians to our southern neighbours to becoming politely militant in the face of an increasingly hostile U.S. government. His latest contribution deserves the Order of Canada and a superhero cape. He launched a social media campaign to attract American #Healthcare workers to his community and from there the Healthcare Infusion Organization was born. There are now 20 chapters across Canada focused on recruiting and supporting doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals in local communities facing staff shortages. He has done more to improve Canadian Healthcare than any level of government in this country.

If you are into Canadian politics, even a little.. and/or into "Press Gallery" type political jokes. This 9 minutes flies by with Interim NDP Leader Don Davies. No holding back, self-deprecating, hilarious, slightly vulgar and absolutely brutal.
