Pope Leo XIV met privately with the mother of a 14-year-old boy who died by suicide after forming a bond with an AI.

The pope has since issued his most forceful warning yet about artificial intelligence — calling for global safeguards to protect children.

Some tech moguls are already lashing out.

Mark Kelly: "It seems to."

Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?"

Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

ICE MONSTERS
This is because of the Kavanaugh Stop blessed by the Supreme Court’s Republican appointees in September. This was the known, inevitable result of that shadow docket order.

Reposting because anyone interested in what's happening needs to follow every good legal reporter out there. Geidner's first rate. I subscribe. There are others worth following/subscribing to, as well. Starting with Geidner is an excellent way to get into this.
Seriously, subscribe to Law Dork. I can't do everything the big publications can do, but at least I'll never do this.

This is beyond desperate. So since Republicans can’t stop people from voting, they send mailers with the wrong date for the special election on 12/2.

After years of struggling to find enough workers for some of the nation’s toughest lockups, the Federal Bureau of Prisons is facing a new challenge: Corrections officers are jumping ship for more lucrative jobs at ICE.
