Elon Musk’s Grok AI violated Canada’s privacy laws and, at one point, was generating more than 6,000 sexual deepfakes every hour, according to Canada’s privacy commissioner.

Guy that sits on a throne of rape gambling and sensationalism - “fuck teachers and homework for ruining society!!!”
I find the 2 most insufferable group of people on the planet are lifetime educators and lifetime politicians. Both live in a fantasy world that lacks common sense and would not survive a day in the real world

The FBI raided and arrested 7 pro-Palestine activists this morning for their involvement in student organizing at UMich. They are still targeting the student movement. Please spread the word about this. Donate to the legal fund in this thread
🚹 Early this morning, @FBI and partners arrested 7 individuals on a 10 count indictment for allegedly targeting University of Michigan leaders and businesses in the Eastern Michigan region with violent threats and attacks. The indictment alleges that after the October 7, 2023 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, these individuals - a group of college-aged adults - engaged in a coordinated campaign of violent, criminal acts seeking to pressure University of Michigan leaders and other businesses in the Eastern District of Michigan to cut off all ties with Israel. The subjects allegedly vandalized the victims’ property, spray painted their homes with messages like “Intifada” and “Free Palestine,” left threatening notes on their doors, and even broke windows of the victims’ homes - throwing glass jars filled with chemicals while children slept inside. They deliberately chose the one-year anniversary of Hamas’s attack to engage in some of their most visible criminal acts - including one subject who specifically targeted the Bloomfield Township Jewish Federation on October 7, 2024. On the same day, another subject - employed by the University - vandalized the University President’s home. The alleged criminal targeting occurred for over a year - beginning approximately March 2024 and continuing until April 2025. @FBIDetroit and our partners pursued a thorough, detailed investigation of this case - and subjects have been charged for their alleged role in conspiracies to transmit threats in interstate and foreign commerce.

"prediction market" as a term is one of the biggest marketing coups in recent history because why are people getting their news from the casino in the first place
Polymarket told NPR it was pulling sponsorship of some creators spreading LA mayoral election fraud claims. On Monday, Nick Shirley shared a post calling the LA mayoral election into question (it also misunderstood how Polymarket odds work). The post was sponsored by Polymarket.
