When are we not crafting? 😆 But it's Autumn. Fall. The best time of year for crafting. So grab a project and join in.

Some states are passing new laws requiring artificial intelligence to be clearly labeled, especially in regulated industries or on high-stakes documents such as police reports. The labels are crucial for people who'd rather not use AI at all. n.pr/3JAjrzh
Want to opt out of AI? State labeling laws might help

$40 billion and counting to prop up a failed TV troll in Argentina. Governing is harder than it looks, Javier, no?

UPDATE: Taxpayer bailout of Argentina may grow to $40 billion
The bailout, which Trump admitted is of little benefit to Americans, keeps getting bigger.

This feels relevant as we consider why the fat guy is pressuring President Zelenskyy to give in to Putin's territorial demands. #Ukraine - graphic from @progressivepolicy.org 1/2
