“Thank You” On April 1St, Venues California Allows Fans To Attend Live Sporting Events In Outdoor

By Desert Star Staff How do you thank someone who’s willing to risk their life for yours?

When it comes to military service members and their families, advocates say there are many avenues for giving back meaningfully.

As part of its “Give More Than Thanks” campaign

celebrating 80 years of being the “Force Behind the Forces,” the United Service Organizations (USO) is inviting Americans to take actions that can make a tangible difference in the lives of service members. Here are five ideas to get you started: 1. Offer Skills or Services. Many service

members face difficulties translating the skills and experience they acquired in the military to civilian jobs.

Others struggle to adjust to the norms of the civilian workforce. Meanwhile, military spouses face professional obstacles throughout their service member’s career due to constant

moves and deployments.

Consider offering career advice or volunteering to guest lecture via military transition programs, such as the USO Pathfinder Transition Program, which equips service members and military spouses with tools needed to tackle the civilian job market. If you own

a business or are a leader in a company, advocate for hiring qualified veterans. By offering practical support, you’re not only thanking service members, you’re helping build an inclusive community that bridges the civilian-military divide.

2. Send a Care Package. Care packages filled with treats and reminders Continues on Page 8

On April 1st, Venues California Allows Fans To Attend Live Sporting Events

By NBC PS Brandy Flores It has been almost a full year since the Coachella Valley has been able to attend live sporting events. Now the restrictions have been lifted; you could be buying your ticket to a local sporting event much sooner than you think.

Starting April 1, sporting events held at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden and the Empire Polo Fields will be allowed to have fans, of course, at a limited capacity.

Attendance limits are based on what tier the county is in.

As the riverside county is in the purple tier, outdoor sports are limited to 100 people. As we move closer to being in the red tier, fans will be allowed

at 20-percent capacity.

The empire polo fields told NBC Palm Springs that although this is exciting, they currently do not have any events planned for 2021 that would allow fans to participate. Their polo season is just ending, and no spectators have been allowed.

They do not plan to have fan attendance for the remainder of polo season at this time.

The BNP Paribas was supposed to happen this month at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, but it has been postponed to a later date.

However, Tennis Channel host Andrew Krasny seems optimistic about the BNP different, right, and has a returning in 2021. different business model. I’ll “Every tournament is tell you that the BNP Paribas

Seeing Your Doctor During the Pandemic I

FAMILY FEATURES

f you’ve been putting off a visit to your doctor during COVID-19, you’re not alone.

Most adults (57%) agree the pandemic has changed how they feel about going to a health care provider’s office, according to a survey of 1,000 adults in October 2020 from a national alliance of health care experts working to stop medical distancing, which was commissioned and sponsored

by AbbVie. The survey showed that in adults with chronic diseases, cancellations of their visits to the doctor amounted to 61%. Of those that had canceled appointments, 18% did not reschedule them. Some of the reasons included concerns about contracting COVID-19, not wanting to go into the hospital if not necessary and believing they can hold off on care until the end of the pandemic.

Keeping up with regular appointments is an important part of effective ongoing health care, especially for those managing chronic conditions.

Continuous, clear and open communication with your health care providers is essential to getting the care you need.

See Your Doctor

Most important to know during this time are the measures your health care providers are taking, such as wearing personal protective equipment, practicing physical distancing and increasing cleaning and sanitization procedures. Find out what precautions health care providers are taking in your area.

Also, see if your health care team offers telehealth appointments as an alternative. Virtual visits put you face-to-face with your doctor from the comfort and safety of your own home.

“It’s generally wise to limit in-person interactions to safeguard against contracting COVID-19, but forgoing care for an ongoing health condition, especially a chronic illness, may put patients at unnecessary risk,” said Dr. Oren Cohen, chief medical officer, Labcorp Drug Development. “Our goal in health care is to keep patients safe and healthy. Health care providers have established robust protocols to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Calling ahead to understand the process for an office visit or test is a good idea. In some circumstances, telehealth visits may be a good option as well.”

Take Control of Your Health Care During COVID-19 Health care providers are taking extra precautions and implementing additional protocols to conduct in-person visits in the safest way possible. Here’s what you can do to take care of your health: n Make and keep your appointments. n Reschedule any canceled appointments. n If you decide to see the doctor in-person, be sure to call your doctor and ask what health precautions are being taken. n Consider a telehealth visit as an alternative to going to an in-person visit. n Take your medications as prescribed. n Check the expirations of your medications and ask for refills with plenty of time to have them filled. n Ask your health care provider for additional ways to protect your health during this pandemic.

Keep Up with Your Medicines

In addition to seeing your doctor, it’s also important to take your medications as prescribed. Stay in touch with your pharmacy and health care provider team to ensure prescriptions stay current. Also avoid waiting until the last minute to request a refill so you don’t encounter delays or potentially miss doses.

Seeing your doctor and taking your medications are very important to your ongoing care. It’s also a time to talk with your health care provider for more advice on how to get the care you need during the pandemic and beyond.

New Reports Outline Need for Racial Justice in CA Higher Education

By Desert Star Staff LOS ANGELES - Two new reports highlight disparities in California colleges that put African-American students at a disadvantage.

The study “Follow the Money” says California systematically underinvests in Black degree attainment, spending almost twice as much per student in the Cal State University or University of California systems as it does in community colleges - where 80% of Black students are enrolled.

Edward Bush is cofounder and vice president of the group “A2MEND,” which stands for “African American Male Education Network and

Development.” He said the disparities are not accidental.

“It’s structural inequity,” said Bush. “We have to look at this through the lens that perhaps this is a manifestation of racist policies.”

The report suggests more money for community colleges - and an expansion of Cal Grants to low-income community-college students, who are more likely than those at the University of California or California State University to be working at low-wage jobs and supporting a family.

Both studies are from the Campaign for College Opportunity. The second, called “The State of Higher Education for Black Californians,” says while the four-year graduation rate for Black students at CSU has doubled in the past decade, it’s still only 20%.

It also finds 60% of Black high-school graduates aren’t prepared to meet UC or CSU’s entrance requirements. Bush

A new report calls for a significant increase in Cal Grants, which would allow more students of color to attend college. (Quince Creative/Pixabay) says students of color often have a more challenging time getting into a four-year school.

“So, it simply cannot be couched in a conversation about class,” said Bush.

“Because we know that poor white students have

a greater likelihood of attending the University of California or California State University System than lowerincome African-American or Latino students.”

The “State of Higher Education” report suggests

making the classes needed to get into CSU and UC the default curriculum for all highschool students in California.

Behind Closed Doors - What Is (And Is NOT) OK in Closed Session

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL The Open Meeting Act (Civil Code Sections 4900-4955) is the HOA version of California’s “Brown Act,” requiring openness in governance meetings.

However, the Brown Act (Government Code 5495054963) generally applies to public agencies, commissions or private corporations created by a public agency. Since HOAs are private associations, the Brown Act does not apply to them, but the Open Meeting Act does apply.

One Open Meeting Act’s key features is the prohibition in Civil Code Section 4910 of a quorum of the board discussing any HOA business outside an open board meeting, whether in person, telephonically or via electronic mail. The important exception to this requirement is executive session, in which the board discusses matters which for important reasons must be confidential and not discussed in front of the membership.

The Open Meeting Act provides at Civil Code Section 4935 for closed executive session but only permits a small list of permissible topics.

Boards may in executive session discuss litigation (presumably including any attorney advice about potential litigation), personnel matters, member disciplinary or common area damage reimbursement hearings, assessment foreclosure votes, discussion with a delinquent member regarding their

proposed repayment plan, and matters relating to formation of contracts with third parties.

A few of these permissible topics are frequently misinterpreted. By “personnel,” the law does not refer to the staffing of committees or filling board vacancies, but rather references association employees. Unless the association employs individuals who are paid directly by the association, there are no personnel to discuss in executive session.

Another very commonly misapplied topic is “formation of contracts.” Note the term “formation” is used, as opposed to anything at all regarding the subject of contracts. Keeping in mind that boards should be as transparent as possible, and also remembering that the purpose of closed session is to protect matters which if not kept confidential will cause damage to the HOA, the only parts of the contracting process which

must be confidential are the negotiating/counter-offer strategy and attorney advice about the contract language.

The best approach to hiring a new vendor is to discuss the proposals in open session, determine the vendor which the board prefers to hire, and then announce that the negotiation and any legal contract terms will be discussed in closed session.

One final topic for closed session is not yet listed in the Open Meeting Act, and that is the discussion of a resident’s request for accommodation of a disability. Under the Fair Housing Regulations, Title 2 California Code of Regulations Section 12176(b), such matters are required to be kept confidential. Since violating the regulations could expose the HOA and its manager to liability, compliance with the regulation should compel boards to have such discussions in closed session.

Some boards succumb to the temptation to skirt

the boundaries of the Open Meeting Act, either in the name of efficiency, or because open board meetings in the association are too unruly.

Such boards hold “working sessions” or gather as “committee” to discuss HOA business. However, under Civil Code Section 4090 any time a quorum of the board is together discussing business it is a “meeting” triggering the Open Meeting Act. Preserving the trust of the community is everything, so avoid overuse of executive session.

HOROSCOPES ARIES

It’s best to be careful when out and about. You’re experiencing the energies of Pisces, which means one can be a bit confused when in the midst of crowds for any length of time. It’s best to be reflective, solitary, and with only a few people who understand (astrology) and support your many endeavors.

Dreams and visions are important now. What are your visions for the future and how/where do you see yourself in the coming years?

TAURUS Each day you enter a dream state, a place where your creativity is activated and you help to prepare us for a future world of safety and survival.

You attempt to share this with others but so often people become impatient. You stand solitary in your knowledge knowing it’s your responsibility to bring forth the resources (land) needed to create the new world era. Everyone around you has their own gift to bring forth. You recognize them. Then they do too.

GEMINI Where are you and what are you doing each day? Who do relate to and what are you reading? What are your future plans and are you following circadian rhythms?

What are you hoping for and what do you need? Can you answer these questions? Your answers are like a preliminary resume to join a spiritual group, ashram, community.

All answers are correct.

you more. What meadows are you in these days? What flowers are blooming?

CANCER Are you considering a journey soon? Have your thoughts and perceptions changed?

Do you find fearful or angry or aggressive thoughts in your mind and do you feel guilty or righteous about them? It seems essential that your home be clean, well lit, ordered and organized. Even if little gets accomplished, do one kind action each day. A greenhouse, a pergola, and car and/or a boat (for you or another) are good items to invest in.

LEO A reorientation is taking place in your life creating a state of transformation. You are often so hidden behind multiple veils. All that you have cultivated as talents, gifts and abilities will be called forth in the times to come. Are people, cultures, journeys or geographies calling to you from a distance.

Your response will change your life forever. Enter into the deeper mysteries. The temple door has opened.

VIRGO Signs in opposition, like Virgo and Pisces, create an interplay of the known and the unknown, ups and downs, here and there, etc. until the two, alarmed by each other, finally accept, integrate, fuse, blend, synthesize and make peace together. All the sign must do this with their opposites. With Sun, Venus

and Neptune in Pisces and Mars in Gemini, synthesis can occur. Virgo is the sign of service preparing for the saving quality in Pisces.

The two of you are one.

LIBRA You may feel exhausted when confronted with the present state of more work than usual. You may also feel a wounding that is difficult to express. There’s a purpose to that wounding. It provides us with the needed compassion for others, which is a healing. It’s challenging to have the courage to clearly articulate your wound without judgment and blame.

Wounds become life tools.

They balance us and love us.

SCORPIO if you surrender completely to your creativity, you will be rewarded with an expansion of gifts you did not know existed. Creativity for you works under the inspiration of aspiration and vision, which then summons the essential beauty which all forms veil. You are to bring forth this revelatory essence of beauty. It is what underlies your life-purposes, which motivates your life’s events, past, present and future.

Do you understand this?

SAGITTARIUS Know that your well-being is intact no matter how you feel or sense things to be. No matter what you think your financial situation is, there are realistic new resources and avenues available so you can rest easy and not enter into

states of unease, unreality or feelings of lack. Nothing needs doing. You are supported by all the energies in the heavens. Turn to others and also offer them this support.

Your supply then becomes limitless. Saturn will see to it.

PISCES: All Pisces, during Pisces turn inwards deep within themselves. This happens naturally with Sun, Venus and Neptune in Pisces. Neptune in Pisces will continue for the next four years, until March 30, 2025 (year of the Precipitation), when Neptune enters Aries.

You dream of home, land, gardens, chickens, lots of friends, family, the arts and community. Keep visualizing, keep dreaming. Do only what you love. Simultaneously, serve others, supporting their well-being, security, and selfesteem. All that is given is returned one-hundred-fold.

As Police Trial Begins, Healing and Social-Justice Work Evolve

By Desert Star Staff MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.

-- Barring last-minute changes, court proceedings begin today in the trial of the former Minneapolis police officer charged in the killing of George Floyd.

Amid worldwide coverage, local faith leaders and others remain focused on healing and righting racial inequities.

Images of extra security and throngs of media bring up an array of emotions for the Black community nearly a year after Floyd’s death sparked massive protests and civil unrest.

P.J. Hill, communications director at Worldwide Outreach for Christ, a church near the south Minneapolis corner where Floyd was killed, said the initial pain felt by many folks never went away but is at the forefront again.

“What we witnessed was

a nine-minute murder of a man, and something inside all of us broke,” Hill recounted.

“And so, trying to deal with that trauma over these last 10-11 months and then now, having it rehashed and reopened with the trial.”

The church is hosting an outdoor event each Saturday where people can gather for communal healing.

Hill explained it helps counteract the pain and hopelessness they’ve felt.

Like the Headwaters Foundation for Justice, local organizations continue to administer special grants for groups that use a communityorganizing approach to advance social justice.

Headwaters is also located in south Minneapolis.

Venessa Fuentes, director of Network and Narrative at the Foundation, said they’re expressing solidarity

through their grant-making.

She noted they feel a responsibility to be a conduit for grassroots groups that need help elevating their voices at a time when more people are listening.

“Everyone’s looking to us to make sure that we are getting those messages out, that we are getting them out consistently and that we are maintaining our relationships,” Fuentes outlined.

She pointed out many grantees are Black-centered and closely engaged at the community level.

Last summer, the Foundation launched a rapid response fund that allows more funding to flow to groups doing frontline work.

Fuentes added because of their ties to these groups before Floyd’s killing, there’s an emotional component to the grant support, March 10, 2021

“How are we able to give ourselves grace and ask for help?” Fuentes wondered.

Robin Wright’s Directorial Debut in “LAND” Portrait of the Healing Kindness of a Stranger

Miguel (Demián Bichir) teaches Edee (Robin Wright) how to hunt and forage for food.

Photo: Courtesy of Focus Features People deal with grief in myriad ways – from shock or anger to disbelief, guilt, or profound sadness. When we first meet Robin Wright’s Edee Holzer, she is in a psychologist’s office and seems to be dealing with a great loss. She doesn’t want to be around people and questions her place in the world. We don’t know what happened to her, but clearly, it appears to be an unspeakable event that propels her to make a drastic lifestyle change by dropping out of society.

A well-educated, successful attorney, Edee buys camping equipment, loads up a U-Haul with provisions, and is guided by a local man named Colt (Brad Leland) to a very remote old family cabin located on an expansive piece of land in the Wyoming Mountains. (It should

be noted, however, that most of the film was shot on location on Canada’s Moose Mountain, near Banff National Park.)

The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful and is brilliantly captured by cinematographer Bobby Bukowsky, whose camera measures time as it closes in on the natural look of the changing seasons both its intrinsic staggering beauty and the inherent lurking dangers. In another genre, the film could almost be a standalone wilderness documentary.

The cabin is cluttered with old discarded junk and piles and piles of debris. One couldn’t help but wonder why Edee would buy this land with the run-down cabin sans heat or electricity and a disgusting outhouse. One gets the idea pretty early that when she

throws her cell phone away and says she doesn’t need a car, this woman wants to cut herself off from the world. Adjusting to this primitive lifestyle takes some doing. There are scary animal night sounds and an unending daily list of chores, from hauling jugs of water from the nearby stream to sometimes unsuccessful attempts at chopping wood for the potbelly stove. Jesse Chatham and Erin Dignam’s script takes us through Edee’s day-to-day challenges and quietly unveils tiny hints of what is motivating this woman to isolate herself.

There is a flashback scene with Edee’s sister, who hugs her and pleads, “Please don’t hurt herself.” The flashback device is used throughout the film’s first act depicting happy times with her son and a love scene

between her and her husband.

The passage of time is established through the changing seasons, from too harsh winters with blinding blizzards to spring and the awakening of dormant tree buds. Edee is in the outhouse in the dead of winter when a hungry bear approaches, keeping her trapped inside for what seemed like an eternity.

He trashes the cabin, taking most of her provisions, forcing her to hunt for food. She has a rifle, and sets her sights on a deer, but misses. She is in a downward spiral and thinks about killing herself, but hears her sister’s pleading voice in her head. Without food or water, and wounded from a fall, she drifts into unconsciousness.

As she lay almost dying on the frigid wooden floor, she is found by a hunter named Miguel Borras, beautifully played by Demián Bichir and his niece Alawa Crow (Sarah Dawn).

This nurse lives and works on a nearby Indigenous reservation.

She and Miguel tend to Edee’s wounds and provide food and water. Alawa assigns her uncle the task of restoring this strange woman’s health and eventually teaching her how to hunt so she can always have food. As Edee’s health begins to improve, she becomes more comfortable with Miguel’s presence but clarifies that she doesn’t want to hear anything about the outside world. She asks him why he’s helping her, and he replies, “You were on my path.” This unique, spiritual good Samaritan has pressing issues of his own, but they are not immediately revealed. It becomes clear, however, that they have more in common than either of them imagined.

As warmer weather sets in,

he shows her how to set squirrel traps, teach her how to hunt, skin a deer, and chop wood. The darkness around Edee continues to lighten up, and they enjoy spending time together hunting and fishing.

A visual of the well-stocked woodshed speaks volumes about her progress. Miguel is a warm, loving man with a heart of gold, and one almost expects a romance to blossom, but it does not, which makes their friendship even more poignant.

The narrative slowly unravels, revealing what happened to each of their families, and eventually discloses more about Miguel and his awaiting, surprising destiny. Satisfied that Edee can now take care of herself, he visits her and asks if she could take care of his dog, to which she agrees. “When will you return?” “I’m not sure.”

Wright’s first attempt at directing is worthy of attention. Wearing two hats can be challenging, but, in this instance, the director’s hat worked very well, as did her acting hat, as she achieved a masterful portrayal of Edee.

Especially considering the first third of the film has little or no dialogue and is a onehander morphing into a twohander with the most charming Miguel’s arrival. There are some narrative flaws, especially the outcome, which strained credibility and seemed like an ending was contrived for the sake of, well, an end.

Millionaires to NYS: Tax Us, Please

By Desert Star Staff NEW YORK -- More than four dozen New York millionaires have signed a letter to state lawmakers with a proposal to help the state recover from the economic impact of the pandemic: tax the rich.

The COVID pandemic has cost millions of New Yorkers their jobs and will leave an estimated $63 billion gap in the state budget over the next four years.

In their letter, the millionaires say the state should enact the taxes that are part of the proposed Invest in Our New York Act. Mike Lapham, director of the Responsible Wealth project at United for a Fair Economy, said raising taxes on high incomes, billionaires, large inheritances, corporations, stock sales, and capital gains could close that gap.

“The whole package could be as much as $50 billion a year,” Lapham asserted. “It’s not likely that they’ll all get passed, but there’s a lot of

money there that could help the state and that wealthy people can afford to pay.”

Some lawmakers claim if taxes are raised on the rich, they would move to a state with lower taxes, but Responsible Wealth said studies have shown that’s not true.

Lapham pointed out since New York increased taxes on the rich in 2009, the number of millionaires who call the state home has risen by more than 60%.

“The reality is if you have a business, if you have a whole community, if you have been living in this state for years, you’re not going to just up and move to some other state because your taxes go up by a few thousand dollars a year,” Lapham contended.

In their letter to lawmakers, the millionaires said they are the least likely to move because their taxes go up.

Lapham noted a onetime infusion of federal cash couldn’t fix the state’s longterm economic problems.

Since 2009, the number of millionaires in the Empire State has increased by more than 60%. (SeanPavonePhoto/Adobe Stock) Still, the wealthiest state residents have a vested interest in raising the living standards for all New Yorkers.

“They are profoundly interested in having a healthy

state to live in and having the state invest in things like public education, transportation and infrastructure,” Lapham observed.

He added taxing those who

Pepe Le Pew CANCELED from ‘Space Jam’ sequel

By Desert Star Staff Pepe Le Pew, whose amorous adventures have amused audiences for decades, is now the face of “rape culture,” at least according to the New York Times. However, Pepe has already been axed from an upcoming ‘Space Jam’ sequel.

New York Times columnist

Charles Blow opened up a new front in the never-ending culture wars over the weekend, when he accused Pepe Le Pew, the cartoon skunk whose failed attempts to woo women always land him in trouble, of perpetuating “rape culture.”

Though the running gag is that Pepe, oblivious to his

on Sunday that a scene involving Pepe had already been cut from Warner Bros’ upcoming sequel to ‘Space Jam,’ the beloved part-animated, part-liveaction adventure from 1996.

The cancelation “has nothing to do” with Blow’s anti-Pepe crusade, Deadline stressed.

Filmed in 2019, the scene was dropped when director Malcolm D. Lee took over the movie after Terence Nance left the project that summer.

The scene starred ‘Jane the Virgin’ actress Greice Santo alongside Pepe and was described as a black-andwhite spoof on ‘Casablanca.’ repulsive stink and behavior, Pepe attempts to kiss a never succeeds in his romantic woman played by Santo, who endeavors, Blow still insisted pours her drink on him and slaps that Pepe “helped teach boys him in response.

By Desert Star Staff Former President Donald Trump has seen his last remaining chance to reverse the outcome of November’s election slip away, with the Supreme Court refusing to take up his previous challenge to Wisconsin’s voting process.

The Supreme Court on Monday declined to consider Trump’s case against the state of Wisconsin, in which the then-candidate had accused the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) of violating

both the Constitution and state law regarding how they set up mail-in voting for the weeks leading up to Election Day - along with a litany of other complaints.

Monday’s rejection of the certiorari petition thus appears to finish off any chances the former president might have had to keep his position in the Oval Office. As distant a possibility as winning a favorable SCOTUS disposition might have seemed, even the slightest of chances would have

represented an improvement over the self-defeating option the plaintiffs opted for.

Trump and his legal team filed dozens of cases starting even before Election Day to rein in what they expected to be a horde of mail-in Democratic voters. Most of those cases amounted to nothing legally, with several higher courts refusing to take up the matter for that reason. The original case Trump sought to appeal to SCOTUS consisted of a trio of judges Trump himself had

order against him, James scolds Pepe, telling the skunk that he “can’t grab other Tunes without their consent.”

Santo is reportedly upset with the cancelation, especially as it showed Pepe getting taught a lesson in boundaries. Speaking to Deadline, a spokesperson said that Santos is disappointed that she no longer has a chance to “let younger girls and younger boys know that Pepe’s behavior is unacceptable.”

While Pepe is now lumped in with the Harvey Weinsteins and Kevin Spaceys of the world, he is not the only Looney Tune to come under fire for his behavior.

References to firearms have also been purged from a reboot of the iconic cartoon series; producer Peter Browngardt told the New York Times last year.

Elmer Fudd no longer hunts Bugs Bunny with a shotgun in the newly-sanitized Looney Tunes but with an equally-deadly scythe. Yosemite Sam was also stripped of his trademark revolvers, but comically large stacks of dynamite and ACME anvils are still fair game.

appointed - who nevertheless refused to go to the bat for their then-president. The lawsuit against Wisconsin followed in the footsteps of previous election-related cases filed by Trump, with the president attempting to reverse a federal appeals panel’s earlier decision. That panel, comprised of three Republicans, delivered an opinion written

by Trump appointee Michael Scudder - and still denied the ex-president the opportunity to have his case heard.

SCOTUS’ dismissal was unaccompanied by a comment from the justices, nor did it include any published dissent.

Indeed, the outcome strongly resembled the Supreme Court’s decision last month focused on Pennsylvania’s state. Various US courts have rejected multiple appeals from the Trump camp targeting the voting systems that - as the Republican and his supporters would have it handed the election to Biden.

Rediscovered Recordings Resound In 2021 “Flamingo,” ambitious “Zen Archer,” and soulful “Sometimes I Don’t Know What To Feel” are surefire standouts on the first LP.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

AI can be trained to manipulate human behavior and decisions

By Desert Star Staff Artificial Intelligence (AI) researchers in Australia have demonstrated how it is possible to train a system to manipulate human behavior and decision-making, highlighting the double-edged sword in modern high tech.

AI now permeates the vast majority of contemporary human society and governs many ways we communicate, trade, work, and live. It also assists in areas ranging from critical objectives like vaccine development to the more mundane office administration sphere and many in between.

It also governs how humans interact on social media in several ways.

A new study by researchers at The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation’s (CSIRO) Data61 designed and tested a method to find and exploit vulnerabilities in human decision-making, using an AI system called a recurrent neural network.

In three experiments that pitted man against machine, the researchers showed how an AI could be trained to identify vulnerabilities in human habits and behaviors and weaponize them to influence

human decision-making.

In the first experiment, humans click on red or blue boxes to earn in-game currency.

The AI studied their choice patterns and began guiding them towards making specific decisions, with a roughly 70-percent success rate. Small fry, but only the beginning.

In the next experiment, participants were asked to press a button when they saw a specific symbol (a colored shape) and refrain from pressing the button when shown other symbols.

The AI’s ‘goal’ was to arrange the sequence of symbols displayed to the participant in such a way as to trick them into making mistakes, eventually increasing human errors by 25 percent.

In the third experiment, the human player would pretend to be an investor giving money to a trustee (the AI), who would then return the participant’s amount of money.

The human would then decide how much to invest in each successive round of the game, based on each investment’s revenue.’ In this experiment, the AI was given one of two tasks: either to maximize the amount of

money it made or to maximize the amount of money both the human player and the machine ended up with.

It excelled in all scenarios, showcasing that an AI could indeed be trained to influence human behavior and decisionmaking processes, albeit in limited and somewhat abstract circumstances.

This research, while limited in scope, for now, provides terrifying insights into how an AI can influence human ‘free will’ albeit in a rudimentary context, but throws open the possibilities of (ab)use on a

much larger scale, which many suspects is already the case.

The findings could be deployed for good, influencing public-policy decisions to produce better health outcomes for the population, just as quickly as it could be weaponized to undermine critical decisionmaking, like elections.

Conversely, AIs could also be trained to alert humans when they are being influenced, teaching them to disguise their vulnerabilities. This aspect could itself be manipulated or hacked for nefarious purposes,

further complicating matters.

In 2020, CSIRO developed an AI Ethics Framework for the Australian government to establish proper governance of public-facing AIs. Next week, the Australian government is expected to introduce landmark legislation that will force Google and Facebook to pay news publishers and broadcasters for their content, which is used by the companies’ respective algorithms to drive traffic and generate clicks and, thus, advertising revenue, a central part of their business models.
