What jobs is AI actually replacing? Henley Wing Chiu, who blogs about enterprise tech at Bloomberry.com, analyzed 180M job postings to find out. He found that the job with the biggest decline is computer graphics artist, with photographer, journalist and writer high on the list too. Some of the shifts aren't to do with AI. At least three of the top 10 declining roles are in sustainability and compliance positions — symptomatic of the U.S. government's approach to regulation and the environment. Which jobs are on the up? Machine learning engineer and trade compliance specialist.

It's hard to gauge how much Elon Musk's political views have affected Tesla, but a new report from economists at the Yale School of the Environment assesses that the company's sales could have been 67 to 83 percent higher if Musk had stayed out of the fray. That's equivalent to at least one million car sales. Here's more from @RollingStone. At the second link, find @Vox's story about whether liberal boycotts in general could offer Americans a secret weapon against Trump.

U.S. immigration authorities are using smartphone facial recognition technology in the field to determine whether people are citizens, @404mediaco reports. Officers use an app called Mobile Fortify, which has a bank of 200M images and data from the State Department, CBP, FBI, and states as well as datasets relating to “individuals, vehicles, airplanes, vessels, addresses, phone numbers and firearms,” according to a memo viewed by 404's @josephcox. Ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson said in a statement: “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship — including a birth certificate — if the app says the person is an alien.
