Um he also said that people are negative on AI.
So it's clear that the tech industry is is is seeing the public pushback and is trying to assuage concerns.
You have a flock who had made uh sweeping changes to its technology or to how police interact with it, uh putting up some guardrails and the companies behind these data centers saying that they will, you know, try to
communicate better with with local communities where they're trying to build these large large projects.
Thank you for having me.
Yeah, good to be here.
So to start, asylum is the legal protection given to people who are at the border or inside the country who have a legitimate fear of persecution in their home country based on a few criteria, including race, religion or political opinion.
Now, there's usually two ways someone can obtain asylum.
A person who is in removal proceedings already may apply for asylum defensively by filing an application with an immigration judge in immigration court, and that's overseen by the Department of Justice.
Now, a person who is not in removal proceedings can actively apply for asylum directly with the Citizenship and Immigration Services, and that's USCIS.
And in that process, they have that opportunity to do an interview with a trained USCIS asylum officer, and who would assess the claim and either grant asylum, or if that person doesn't meet the requirements for asylum, they would send those cases to immigration court.
Now, so this rule changes
that policy and pretty much scraps the requirement for those interviews to take place, which are really kind of integral to the process.
The Department of Homeland Security said that this change was made to reduce the significant backlog in the asylum system.
And so there's currently about 1.4 million cases pending.
And the USCIS director, Joseph Edlow, also put out a statement.
He said that the asylum system has been exploited for purposes of delay and work authorization and illegitimate claims for protection.
So he says that this change is also a way to address some of those issues.
Yeah, so you're exactly right.
The two processes are very different.
