Crazy story, but nothing to do with AI, as the lede strongly implies. Sensors were misreading, and the system had no manual override. Poor design.

It appears the woman who called a child a racial epithet in Minnesota has been charged with disorderly conduct. Like it or not, racist speech is protected under the First Amendment—and yes, it should be. In a free society, we’re supposed to handle these issues through

I have a joke about Pesach, but it fell flat.

Some journalists in Gaza aren't journalists at all. They're the propaganda arm of a combatant party. Some are even involved in Hamas's operational planning. Other journalists in Gaza are actually trying to do real journalism, but under the rather obvious limitation that if
