No: you cannot awaken an AI “soul” Yes: Schools should teach AI literacy and computer science as part of basic education. #CSforAll #HourofAI

Every single one of the 11 Meta superintelligence hires is an immigrant who did their undergrad abroad. 7 China, 1 India, 1 Australia, 1 UK, 1 South Africa. 8 are PhD or PhD dropouts in the US. Immigration is key to US AI innovation.
This past week, my twin brother Ali (@apartovi) and I received hundreds of messages from Iranian students who were accepted into PhD programs in the USA, only to have their legal immigration papers rescinded. Thank you all for sharing your individual stories. As the sons of…
