Not a study, it is a 'survey' by a company who uses AI for HR.
This is an advertisement, not a news story. Stop treating marketing like scientific news.

A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

so the stupid canadian age verification bill is back in parliament so call your local MPs and tell them it’s bad and why it’s bad and don’t be ashamed to pander to them based on if they’re a tory or grit or otherwise - if you frame it in a way that mirrors their ideology, they might remember better

Ron Deibert is absolutely the voice that the infosec industry needs to be listening to right now. We are in a moment where fascism is consolidating power and most of the infosec industry is either playing along or is busy bragging about how much AI they've shoved into their products.

Just found this. The imbalance started way before this, the 2008 financial crisis and probably as far back as 9/11 and the 90s. The war is not red/blue, good/evil. It is an orgy of $$$/status/power.

My hope is that either stem cells to grow new organs or actual attempts at 3D printed organs (which have been underway for a while). The downside is all still experimental. Donations have always sat on top of this darkness - it was always just meant to be a stopgap until better options came around.
In Alabama, a woman was cut into while she was alive. In New Mexico, another woman underwent days of preparation for donation even as she regained consciousness. As the U.S. has pushed to increase transplants, more patients are enduring premature or bungled attempts to remove their organs.
A Push for More Organ Transplants Is Putting Donors at Risk
People across the United States have endured rushed or premature attempts to remove their organs. Some were gasping, crying or showing other signs of life.
