How a Civic Assembly Changed Minds on AI. Plus, the WA Lawsuits Over Schools and Housing
A civic assembly of 29 Snohomish County residents just spent three weekends wrestling with one of the thorniest questions in local government: how should officials use AI and should they use it at all? Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu talks with KNKX reporter Nate Sanford and assembly participant Dhruv Raithatha about what it's actually like to build consensus with strangers. Then contributors Brett Hamil and Chase Hutchinson join for a midweek medley covering Washington's growing list of federal lawsuits, the Seahawks' new billionaire owners, the Seattle Public Library levy fight, and a new film shooting in the city next month.
