A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
I am for complete transparency everywhere – federal government, state and local governments, and the private sector, with respect to everything – salaries, pensions, benefits, ownership of bonds and stocks, tax returns, etc. Seriously. If we had all that information, maybe we could see, for example, how beholden our new President is to Russia, or how much racial, gender and age discrimination goes on in companies. The public interest and need for disclosure extends well beyond government workers and retirees.
