So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.
It took only a 15-second clip of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt duking it out on a crumbling rooftop — made by A.I. with a two-sentence prompt and the click of a button — to draw swift outrage, and sizable fear, from Hollywood.
"It’s nothing short of terrifying," one scriptwriter said.

Why an A.I. Video of Tom Cruise Battling Brad Pitt Spooked Hollywood
A 15-second clip created by an artificial intelligence tool owned by the Chinese technology company ByteDance appears more cinematic than anything so far.

This is wild.
41 DUI arrests by a Tennessee trooper. All dismissed. 22 drivers were completely sober.
He “resigned”. No explanation. No accountability. No apology. His personnel file doesn’t even mention the cases.

Don Huffines is a real estate mogul.
He is running for Texas Comptroller.
Seems like it's not really the job for him, after buying the Zorro Ranch with an LLC called San Raphael Ranch to throw off his scent and make it difficult to find the owner.
The FBI did not investigate Zorro Ranch.
