The Supreme Court will soon decide if only Republicans are allowed to gerrymander

Last month, the Supreme Court’s Republican majority reinstated Texas’s Republican gerrymander after a lower federal court struck it down. The plaintiffs in that case presented considerable evidence that Texas’s gerrymander was enacted, at least in part, to racially gerrymander some parts of the state. But the Court’s Republican majority deemed this evidence insufficient. Now, the […] Read more ›

Chatbots don’t have mothers, but if they did, Claude’s would be Amanda Askell. She’s an in-house philosopher at the AI company Anthropic, and she wrote most of the document that tells Claude what sort of personality to have — the “constitution” or, as it became known internally at Anthropic, the “soul doc.” (Disclosure: Future Perfect is […] Read more ›

China is purging its military leaders. Is this a step toward war?

In recent years, Chinese leader Xi Jinping has been systematically purging his country’s senior military leaders, part of an overall campaign that has meted out punishment to some 200,000 officials since he took power. It’s officially an anti-corruption program but also, most believe, an effort to consolidate power over China’s ruling Communist Party. Hundreds of […] Read more ›
