Just got my new edition of Bitcoin Magazine. 👇
Interestingly, on the 3rd page, it contains the statement “This magazine is AI free” - the first one I’ve seen.
As AI written content proliferates, will there be a significant market demand for such an assurance from publishers?
I think so.
Many, if not most, readers want to know whether what they are reading is straight from the fingers of a person, with no AI middleman.
I think readers will absolutely still read AI-generated content but they’ll want to know with a disclosure.
If what you’re reading is entirely written by a person, the benefit of the written value (if any) accrues to the author. The author is credited with having the idea, experience, expertise, opinion, or mix thereof, etc.
As readers and consumers, we make significant decisions based on that judgment.
On the other hand, to the extent the writing is assisted by AI, the benefit of the written value is NOT accrued to the author.
The reader may still find the written piece very valuable, but he/she naturally won’t credit the AI-wiley “author” with the idea, experience, expertise, opinion, etc. in the piece, as in the alternative scenario above.
I believe that simple difference in reader perception will, sooner than later, create the market demand for an assurance that “this [content] is AI free.”
And an automatic presumption that the content is AI-generated where that assurance is absent
What do you think?
BTW, this post is AI free. 😄

For citizenship by descent cases, U.S. WWI draft registration cards can sometimes provide secondary evidence to prove something critical in the case.
It can also just be cool to have for your family genealogy.
WWI draft cards include:
- The registrant's country of citizenship;
- What stage the registrant was in U.S. naturalization process (i.e. did they file "declaration of intention" yet)
- The registrant's race;
- The registrant's date of birth;
- The registrant's nearest relative (oftentimes the wife)
As I've written many times before, after proper screening for eligibility, the hardest part of citizenship by descent cases is proving the eligibility via certified or original documents.
This is doubly true for cases needing to trace ancestry back 100+ years.
You can request a certified copy of a U.S. draft registration card from the U.S. National Records Archive ("NARA"). 👇👇👇

For some European citizenship by descent cases (Italy, Slovakia, Lithuania, Poland, and others), you may asked to show that your ancestor did NOT naturalize in the U.S. before a certain date.
For that, a "certificate of nonexistence of record" from USCIS may do the trick.
Luckily, the cost is right in your price range ($0) and the form is only 4 pages long.
Here's what the certificate looks like and how you request one. 👇

Here is a brief overview of the issues faced by Americans with a criminal record pursuing 2nd citizenship and how we deal with them.

Thin, wide freedom of movement --> visa-free access.
Narrow, deep freedom of movement --> right of residency (including citizenship).
Both cuff & key of freedom of movement --> the passport itself.

On linkedin, I’m starting to see a few written posts that are totally dissonant in style and tone than what I’ve seen from those posters before.
I suspect they’re getting an assist from AI.
Makes me wonder…
Do you hold written posts/articles that are given an assist by AI in the same esteeem as totally “manually” written articles?
Especially thought/idea heavy ones.
My initial instinct is that the more the written piece delves into ideas and so-called thought leadership, the more disingenuous it is to post it as one’s own, if assisted by AI.
On the other end of the spectrum, data-heavy posts seem more like fair game to me.
What do you think?

Another state-level bill that lumps citizens in with nation-states. Also, no exception for dual Chinese-American citizens.
Shameful.
“The bill makes no exceptions for those with dual citizenship in the United States and China, though does grandfather in Chinese citizens who have already purchased property in the state, allowing them to keep their property but not purchase more.”
#china #usa #alabama #freedomofmovement
A blanket prohibition on nationals of Russia, China, Iran & North Korea - even those present in the U.S. lawfully - on purchase of real property in Texas. 👇
Sponsors of the bill were at least sensible enough to exclude dual nationals from the bill (e.g. an Iranian-American like myself), ostensibly giving it a better chance at surviving judicial challenge.
When will we learn that an individual ≠ the state?
I'll be following closely to see if it's passed and survives.

If something is everything, it is nothing…except the perpetual happy hour.

And that’s all I’ve got to say about that.

Smells like #freedomofmovement in the air.
Just like the mythical full size candy bars on halloween in the 1960s
