DOE’s new AI strategy and the Supreme Court’s pivotal decision on free speech in the digital age


On today’s Daily Scoop Podcast, we explore the Department of Energy’s (DOE) release of a comprehensive reference guide for the use of generative AI tools. This 61-page document, distributed internally on June 14, provides DOE employees and contractors with best practices for AI utilization and notes that tools like ChatGPT are available by request. While not formal policy, it represents the DOE’s proactive steps to integrate AI into their operations. Helena Fu, DOE’s Director of Energy’s Office of Critical and Emerging Technologies, emphasizes at the Scale AI’s gov AI summit that the guide is aimed at educating agency staff on leveraging AI responsibly across various applications. In other significant news, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the freedom of digital speech by dismissing a challenge by several Republican states aimed at curtailing federal interaction with social media platforms, accused of suppressing conservative viewpoints. This landmark 6-3 decision underscores the administration’s ongoing efforts to combat misinformation, confirming that the plaintiffs lacked the standing necessary to sue.
