The AI that apparently wants Elon Musk to die

Here’s a very naive and idealistic account of how companies train their AI models: They want to create the most useful and powerful model possible, but they’ve talked with experts who worry about making it a lot easier for people to commit (and get away with) serious crimes, or with empowering, say, an ISIS bioweapons […] Read more

This animal is on the edge of extinction. Trump just fired the people trying to save it.

In the open grasslands of South Dakota, not far from the dramatic rock formations of Badlands National Park, lives one of the continent’s cutest, fiercest, and rarest animals: the black-footed ferret.  Black-footed ferrets, weasel-like animals with distinctive dark bands around their eyes and black feet, are ruthless little hunters. At night, they dive into burrows in pursuit […] Read more

Three reasons why American democracy will likely withstand Trump

Since his 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump has posed a serious threat to American democracy. From the start, he refused to commit to accepting election results.

DOGE, please go to sleep. For your health.

Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) underlings are powering his takeover of the government with a “hardcore” work ethic that sacrifices sleeping for around-the-clock grinding.  Musk boasted that they are working long hours, even over weekends because their “opponents” take that time off. They moved sofa beds into the Office of Personnel […] Read more

Voters in Germany maintained a few global trends this past weekend: They kicked out incumbents, their youth moved to the right, and they delivered another surprise.
