But not alcohol or anything else...I wonder what demographic he's trying to target

Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos has argued that the huge surge of investment in artificial intelligence is fuelling a “good” kind of bubble, delivering lasting benefits for society even if share prices collapse as dramatically as his ecommerce company’s did 25 years ago. “This is kind of an industrial bubble as opposed to financial bubbles,” Bezos said at a tech conference in Turin on Friday, drawing parallels with the dotcom-era investment in fibre-optic cable that outlasted many of the companies who deployed it and the “life-saving drugs” that emerged from the 1990s biotech boom and bust. “The banking bubble, the crisis in the banking system, that’s just bad, that’s like 2008. Those bubbles society wants to avoid,” he said. “The ones that are industrial are not nearly as bad, they can even be good. Because when the dust settles and you see who are the winners — society benefits from those inventions,” he continued. “That’s what is going to happen here too. This is real. The benefits to society from AI are going to be gigantic.” [...]

Republican Senator Ted Cruz thinks we need to “stop attacking pedophiles.” The Texas senator made the brutal (potentially) Freudian slip during a Senate hearing about crime on Tuesday. “Senator Booker also said we should have bipartisan agreement. I think that’s a great idea, we should have bipartisan agreement,” Cruz said. “How ’bout we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop murders?’ How ’bout we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop rapes?’ How ’bout we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop attacking pedophiles?’” [...]

An app for anonymously reporting individuals accused of speaking ill against conservative Charlie Kirk leaked personal data about its users.

Trump is set to host a UFC fight on the White House lawn next year, with Dana White confirming the event as part of the US's 250th independence celebrations.

In case you thought cars would become safer as technology developed... rest assured, Tesla is finding newer and ever-dumber ways to make their cars dangerous to occupants (and others).

The goal is to create hundreds of specialized coding and generative AI agents. 'It should be possible to simulate [Microsoft] entirely with AI,' Musk says.

This is the same system that Tesla fans have been insisting for years is a better-than-human driver.

After the Trump-backed “Big Beautiful Bill” passed both the House and Senate, one social media user protested, “17 million people just lost health care. 18 million kids just lost school meals. 3 million Americans just lost food assistance.”

Imagine a taxi that can't operate in the rain. That is what Tesla has delivered in Austin TX.

We’re getting the first videos of “select guests” getting access to Tesla’s Robotaxi service in Austin, and the level of polish leaves something to be desired.

The absurdity of the proposal is already in the title, and shows how motonormativity is spread all over the world.

The President of the United States everyone... Deserves to be checked into the loony bin.

Tesla's self-driving tech just sucks so hard. Doesn't see the school bus stop sign. Doesn't see the plainly-visible kid-sized-dummy (until the very last second). Doesn't brake or swerve before impact.

The Trump administration is enlisting national park visitors into the Republican president’s fight to rewrite American history, with a new directive that forces all park units to display signs that encourage guests to report any information that is critical of American history.

The president has fiercely criticized Bruce Springsteen after the rocker called his administration ‘corrupt’

How is this even possible? Like, seriously. No way that Cybertruck has high enough miles that it has bald tires, so how is it stuck in that spot?

Who would have thought putting a alcoholic, sad tv personality, with no requisite should in charge of the armed forces would lead to such catastrophic results?

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

A Visible customer was recently the victim of what seems to be a misunderstanding of the company's automated spam detection system. According to the user, after working with customer service to reactivate an account, the response from the company alleged that the deactivation was due to the account being flagged for excessive text messaging — or spam, as that is against the company's terms and conditions.
