This is scary. Not regulating AI will have consequences. What happens when it becomes sentient?
Breaking news: The Trump administration is drafting an executive order that would direct the Justice Department to sue states that pass laws regulating artificial intelligence, according to a copy reviewed by The Post.
White House drafts order directing Justice Department to sue states that pass AI regulations

Tonight, Zohran Mandani walloped Trump, Cuomo, Sliwa, the oligarchs, MAGA and yes, even some establishment democrats.

He did it by listening to his constituents.

By promising to fight for them and their needs.

Not the ruling class who have broken and corrupted America.

That’s the lesson.

To any Missourian, remember this is not about you, your voice, or what you care about, whether you’re in Kansas City, Kingsville, or Carthage.

If they’ll ignore you on this, they’ll ignore you when you need a hospital, jobs in your community, or schoolteachers in your town.

Bobby Fischer! Where is he? I don’t know, I don’t know.
For the 50 years it has been on the air, “Saturday Night Live” has changed how we talk. Is there a catchphrase you’ve found yourself saying? Tell us about it in this form.
What’s the ‘S.N.L.’ Line That You and Your Friends Use?
“Making copies”? “Don’t make me sing”? “Wouldn’t be prudent”? We want to know. Talk amongst yourselves.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵

I’ve asked this in the past, but I am always curious: what is the most underrated game you can think of?
