"Two of the lawyers were barred from appearing before the court for two years; all lawyers received a fine of between $1,000 and $3,500" Glad to see some consequences! These lawyers should go sue whatever AI tool they used. www.404media.co/judge-learns...

NEW from me: Grok has continued to host sexualized and demeaning images of celebrities, a review of public posts from Grok Imagine has found. As well as this, people have been creating full nudity (against Grok’s terms) and sex scenes with the Musk-owned AI
Microsoft shut down a bunch of its own code repositories after hackers pushed malware that would steal credentials from Claude Code or Gemini. Really wild: www.404media.co/microsoft-ha...

Last week, IT employees at the University of California system across the state formed the largest tech worker union in the United States. This is how they now plan to confront tech industry layoffs, rein in AI, and push for tech for the common good:
Against the constant pressure of *genAI, genAI, genAI*, I am really appreciating @ai2.bsky.social 's work on creating tools for critical needs -- like crop maps and forest loss analysis. They just did a nice release on @hf.co. huggingface.co/blog/allenai...
I'm trying out Duck Duck Go this week. I've been looking up best practices for SQL and Python lately. With Google, I'd eventually give up and see what the AI overview was referencing. Duck Duck Go has been pointing me to useful and relevant resources..which is what a search engine should do.
A new donut shop is opening by us. I was curious and went to look at their menu and was presented with a chatbot! Is everyone losing their mind?

Shout out to @todoist.com for being one of the few companies that is enabling AI features that are actually useful! Love the new "scan text for tasks" feature! I wanted to track my progress as I am doing a few courses. I copy pasted the course pages and it created the chapters as sub tasks for me 🙌🏽
