Thugs and vermin: Political sycophants downplay Trump’s unhinged speech echoing Nazi propaganda

Despite the hatred and anger of the Radical Left Lunatics who...

Revenge Plans: Trump’s return to White House would bring violent political attacks and economic ruin

A mass deportation operation. A new Muslim ban. Tariffs on all imported goods and “freedom cities” built on federal land. Much of the 2024 presidential campaign has been dominated by the myriad investigations into former President Donald Trump and the subsequent charges against him. But with less than a year until Election Day, Trump is dominating the race for the Republican nomination and has already laid out a sweeping set of policy goals should he win a second term. His ideas, and even the issues he focuses on most, are wildly different from President Joe Biden’s proposals. If implemented,...

When philosophy professor Darren Hick came across another case of cheating in his classroom at Furman University last semester, he posted an update to his followers on social media: “Aaaaand, I’ve caught my second ChatGPT plagiarist.” Friends and colleagues responded, some with wide-eyed emojis. Others expressed surprise. “Only 2?! I’ve caught dozens,” said Timothy Main, a writing professor at Conestoga College in Canada. “We’re in full-on crisis mode.” Practically overnight, ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence chatbots have become the go-to source for cheating in college. Now, educators are rethinking how they will teach courses this fall from Writing 101...

World’s mind on AI: United Nations finally takes up the issue of regulating artificial intelligence

World’s mind on AI: United Nations finally takes up the issue of regulating artificial intelligence

Posted by | Nov 14, 2023

Just a few years ago, artificial intelligence got barely a mention at the U.N. General Assembly’s convocation of world leaders. But after the release of ChatGPT last fall turbocharged both excitement and anxieties about AI, it has been a sizzling topic this year at diplomacy’s biggest annual gathering. Presidents, premiers, monarchs, and cabinet ministers convened as governments at various levels are mulling or have already passed AI regulation. Industry heavy-hitters acknowledge guardrails are needed but want to protect the technology’s envisioned benefits. Outsiders and even some insiders warn that there also are potentially catastrophic risks, and everyone said there...

The continuing resolution for funding the government Congress passed in September when then–House speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) could not pass appropriations bills runs out on November 17. If something is not done, and done quickly, the U.S. will face a shutdown over Thanksgiving. This will not only affect family gatherings and the holiday, it will hit Black Friday — which, as the busiest shopping day of the year, is what keeps a number of...
