French AI app 'Lucie' is offline and was a disappointing no-show at the Paris AI Summit. Pity that. And pity about the home page's grammatical errors.

A near-miss in DC just 24 hours before deadly American Airlines crash: Republic Airways Flight 4514 was forced to back out of touching down and had to make a second approach after a helicopter appeared near its flight path.

Trump is hoodwinking folks into thinking DEI is the safety risk, but he’s the one making us less safe!

We don’t know exactly who’s to blame for the crash, but Trump & Musk set the stage for danger ahead.

Trump knew it would look bad—he appointed an FAA Administrator hours AFTER the crash!

Elon Musk pushed out the FAA chief — who resigned 1 year into a 5 year term, last week.

Why? Because last year the FAA fined SpaceX $600,000 — for safety violations.

Now the FAA has no chief — and we just had the first commercial airline crash in 16 years.
