Boston, Massachusetts: The US Army Research Laboratory gave a $1,500,000 three-year grant to two professors, Christoph Riedl and Brooke Foucault Welles, at Northeastern University to develop a “fully automated luxury microaggression detector” Alexa-like device that monitors conversations to “catch implicit bias” in workplaces across America.

The US Army Research Laboratory gave a $1,500,000 three-year grant to two associate professors to develop what’s being called a “fully automated luxury microaggression detector” Alexa-like device to “catch implicit bias” in workplaces across America.
Excited to share that @criedl, @RichRadke, Paul Sajda and I were awarded a $1.5M grant from @ArmyResearchLab to study human-agent teams. We hope to develop tech to detect (and fix!) implicit and explicit bias in teams. https://t.co/1OYOA3XTuO
Despite the growing adoption of implicit bias training, some in the field of human resources have raised doubts about its effectiveness in improving diversity and inclusion within organizations.
But what if a smart device, similar to the Amazon Alexa, could tell when your boss inadvertently left a female colleague out of an important decision, or made her feel that her perspective wasn’t valued?
This device doesn’t yet exist, but Northeastern associate professors Christoph Riedl and Brooke Foucault Welles are preparing to embark on a three-year project that could yield such a gadget. The researchers will be studying from a social science perspective how teams communicate with each other as well as with smart devices while solving problems together.
“The vision that we have [for this project] is that you would have a device, maybe something like Amazon Alexa, that sits on the table and observes the human team members while they are working on a problem, and supports them in various ways,” says Riedl, an associate professor who studies crowdsourcing, open innovation, and network science. “One of the ways in which we think we can support that team is by ensuring equal inclusion of all team members.”
“One step closer to a fully automated luxury microaggression detector,” psychology professor Geoffrey Miller commented. “Coming soon to your schools, workplaces, and public spaces.”
This is beyond parody.
The pair have received a $1.5 million, three-year grant from the U.S. Army Research Laboratory to study teams using a combination of social science theories, machine learning, and audio-visual and physiological sensors.
[…] “You could imagine [a scenario] where maybe a manager at the end of a group deliberation gets a report that says person A was really dominating the conversation,” says Welles. The smart device would alert the manager to the participants whose input might have been excluded, she says, with a reminder to follow up with that individual.
As a woman, Welles says she knows all too well how it feels to be excluded in a professional setting.
“When you’re having this experience, it’s really hard as the woman in the room to intervene and be like, ‘you’re not listening to me,’ or ‘I said that and he repeated it and now suddenly we believe it,'” she says. “I really love the idea of building a system that both empowers women with evidence that this is happening so that we can feel validated and also helps us point out opportunities for intervention.”

While Bernie Sanders bragged that 34,000 people attended the rally, only 20,189 cell phone devices were detected. An astonishing 84% of the cell phone devices present had attended 9 or more Kamala Harris rallies, Antifa/BLM, pro-Hamas, pro-Palestinian protests, and 31% had attended over 20!
Most Tesla vehicles are owned by liberals who are concerned about global warming. The leftist boycott of Tesla could affect 70,000 workers in America employed by the EV company. Elon Musk only owns 13% of Tesla.
Due to threats of war in Europe, Swedish authorities are trying to encourage citizens to keep and use cash in the name of civil defence. Cyber attacks on digital currency are also a concern. In the past, Sweden prioritized efficiency, but now it is pivoting to cash for safety and accessibility.
Cortney Merritts, the husband of ousted Democrat US Representative Cori Bush, a member of the far-left “Squad”, has been charged with defrauding the US government out of $20,000 in payments under the Covid-era Paycheck Protection (PPP) loan program
In 2023, over 30 countries committed to triple nuclear capacity by 2050. Nuclear energy already generates 9% of global electricity from 439 reactors and is increasingly attractive for power-hungry data centers; Big Tech is signing billion-dollar utility deals.
Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion insisted that Israel needed nuclear weapons to survive and he hid Israel’s nuclear capabilities at Dimona from JFK. Ben-Gurion resigned the day after he received a letter from JFK advising him that US “commitment to and support of Israel could be seriously jeopardized”.
G. Edward Griffin says, “If you read only one thing this year, make sure this is it.” While President Trump’s Executive Order 14178 explicitly banned the Federal Reserve from developing a CBDC, he supports the STABLE Act and GENIUS Act stablecoin bills that implement the same tools of control through different channels.
Israel risks war on multiple fronts including the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran. Israel’s decision to re-enter Gaza—or a further decision to escalate on any of these other fronts—directly impacts the United States. Washington has locked itself into a cycle of policies contrary to American interests.
The newly discovered structures with highly sophisticated engineering obliterate the dynastic Egyptian model. Jay Anderson said that the Egyptian civilization narrative that we have been taught is impossible. He says it provides evidence of a pre-flood civilization that we can scarcely comprehend.
Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) redefined property ownership in all 50 states in 1994 and removed ownership of property from individuals. It is a violent assault on property rights. Mr. Griffin said that people must get involved in supporting and lobbying lawmakers to change the UCC codes back.
The Department of Education “will continue to support K-12 students, students with special needs, college student borrowers, and others” while working with the states to give them control over education.
Musk was concerned about the influx of migrants who can make the US a socialist state under the Democrats. He said that DOGE is a threat to fraudulent payments for entitlements to illegal aliens, everything from Social Security, Medicare, unemployment, disability, and Small Business Administration loans.
Musk briefly addressed the vandalism during an appearance on Sen. Ted Cruz’s podcast, saying “at least some of it is organized and paid for” by “leftwing organizations in America, funded by leftwing billionaires, essentially.” He said that Act Blue and the Arabella dark money network were involved.
The Biden-era EPA parked $20 billion at an outside bank and it was then dispersed in grants to leftist groups. The Abrams-linked Power Forward Communities received $2 billion as part of these grants, however, the organization reported just $100 in total revenue after their founding in late 2023.
Los Angeles enacted a new law that is a moratorium on evictions for tenants affected by the fires who claim to have lost at least 10% of their income. Rent is no longer due until July 31, 2026 – more than a year from now! Tenants can self-certify financial hardship.
Israel implemented a total blockade of humanitarian relief to citizens of Gaza last week, and Houthi leaders threatened to again begin blocking Israel’s Red Sea shipping activities. Trump responded with a barrage of bombs that killed at least 53 people, including women and children.
Ireland accused Israel of war crimes in Gaza and if it continues, the ACJ said it will advocate for the US government to “take serious action in response”. The senior vice president of the ADL said, “We expect the Irish government to act swiftly and will be closely monitoring the situation.”
President Trump recently pounced on Massie, for opposing the government CR funding proposal. Trump called Massie a ‘grandstander’ and threatened to oust him from office by running a Republican candidate against him in the next primary election. In response, Massie was flooded with donations for his next election.

Being informed is not enough. Knowledge, by itself, is not power, but it holds the potential for power if used as a guide for action. Truth can be overpowered by tyranny only if we fail to enter the battle. The future belongs, not to ideas, but to people who act on those ideas.

Not only is social media banning and shadow-banning content, but Archive.org suffered a massive Denial of Service/ DDOS attack and has stopped chronicling the life of the Internet in real time.
Academia strikes again! Carol Christine Fair, a political scientist professor in the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University, and a former political scientist with the RAND Corporation, said GOP senators “deserve miserable deaths” and recommended castrating their corpses and feeding them to swine.
Leftist college professors take to the media and Twitter accounts to voice their opinions, mostly sympathetic to rioters. They are using social media to promote and justify violence. The presidents and trustees of these universities have not objected to their rhetoric of hatred and violence.

I’m both a former political reporter AND a retired state employee and this micro-aggression detector idea scares the scat out of me. The human wreckage of just the COVID era alone has been enough to tell us this device is a very bad idea, right? RIGHT?
