Google's AI, Gemini, is being added to its smart-home products. Our writer tested it for three weeks in her own home and was both creeped out and annoyed.
AI Is Making a Lot of Big Promises, but It Can’t Even Properly Identify My Cat
It also said I have a herd of cats and thinks my husband is a child.

Ukraine said a "common understanding” had been reached with the US on a peace plan, while the White House has suggested a deal is close.

UBI plus universal public healthcare would open up so many options for artists and others who want to do things that often don't pay a living wage. Maybe one day...

"If the power elite remains poorly understood, it may be because it is not just a financial elite or an educated elite, a noblesse-oblige elite, a political elite or a narrative-making elite. It straddles all of these, lucratively, persuaded of its own good intentions."

BREAKING: The case against Donald Trump in Georgia is officially dead.

The prosecutor who took it over recently has moved to drop it – and Judge McAfee has granted the motion.

In all the years I've been campaigning, this is the first where I've feared retaliation - but even X is not above the law. That's why we've referred X to Ofcom for horrific posts that, having taken legal advice, we believe are illegal under the Online Safety Act. goodlaw.social/wk2q

Every year around Thanksgiving, I see tons of grad students post heartbreaking messages on social media about how their loved ones don’t understand or support their decision to study what seems like something pointless or silly.

Perhaps my American Scientist essay can help!

“Why Are We Funding This?”
Long-standing myths about “silly science” have contributed to the reckless slashing of government-supported research.

In June, Trump’s older sons held an event at Trump Tower where they touted a new made-in-the-USA mobile phone with an American flag on its back, plus a new wireless service called Trump Mobile.

The buyers? They’re still waiting.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

In 2016, Trump University was found 2 be a scam, & DJT had 2 pay back $25Mil.

But after FL AG Bondi received a $25K campaign donation, she tossed the FL fraud suit against Trump U.

After the last year's corruption, can there be doubt Bondi took a bribe?
