Two cases alleging harms caused by artificial intelligence are emerging this week that are cases that involve children’s particular vulnerabilities—vulnerabilities artificial intelligence is designed to exploit. In North Carolina v. Tiktok the state has filed a complaint against Tiktok for the harm caused to children by creating addictions to scrolling through the app’s features, including functions of suggesting to the child they are missing things when they are away from the app, increasing their usage.

Guest Opinion. Change is not a new concept to Cherokee Nation. Our tribe’s history shows all-too-many examples of adapting to a changing world. Whether it’s social, geographical or technological, Cherokee citizens are resilient in the face of change. Key to our longevity is accepting change even as it shifts beneath our own feet but doing so on our own terms.

Guest Opinion. As chief of the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians (UKB), I know what it means to fight to protect our land and defend our sovereignty. We have fought for jurisdiction over our own reservation, for federal approval of trust lands to host programs and deliver services Members, and for our right to game on our own lands, all to provide for our people on our terms. And we are fighting still, every day.

Guest Opinion. The emerging technology of artificial intelligence suggested that soon we would all be losing our jobs. The Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild of America first recognized that Artificial Intelligence (AI) could take their identities and do their jobs, and negotiations to protect them were intense. Some suggest physicians and lawyers will soon be out of a job with AI. News like the student at MIT who dropped out because we will all be dead due to AI before she can graduate promises sensational headlines. For now, humans are still needed and AI is still not replacing us, but let’s revisit some of the ideas of UBI (Universal base income) and how much our identities are tied with our occupation.

Guest Opinion. Native Americans have remarkably stood on the frontlines of the US military service, answering the call to defend the nation. Their contributions span every historic battle of the past century, from World Wars I and II to conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Today, these indigenous people make up about 1.7% of active-duty service members despite comprising only 1.4% of the general population. Meanwhile, more than 140,000 veterans currently reside nationwide, with American Indians and Alaska Natives having served in the Armed Forces at five times the national average—the highest per-capita participation of any demographic in the military. Tragically, like many of their comrades, these individuals were also exposed to environmental contaminants, such as asbestos, burn pits, Lewisite, Agent Orange, and radiation causing a myriad of serious illnesses.
