The strain of bird flu is distinct from what has previously been found in dairy cattle. The finding means the virus has again spilled over from birds to cows, and it raises some worrying questions.

Are there any countries on earth that are not becoming more right wing, that have a good medical system and where people actually give a shit about not killing/disabling those around them by refusing to mask and spreading Covid? I am genuinely wondering

God love them, but since I joined the marches in 2017 and 2020 I’ve concluded that unless marches are the occasion for rather than the object of organizing, they’re basically posting that let’s you get your steps in.
The People’s March is moving through the streets of Washington: “We won’t go back!”
A broad coalition of activists — among them climate, women’s rights, immigration, anti-war, LGBT, D.C. statehood, racial justice — are mobilizing in unison against Trump, three days before his inauguration. 🧵

This really is the most succinct summation of where we are with this AI crap. The official position of the tech industry is "it's fine if everything works less well than it did five years ago and computers are belching out hate speech, so long as I can lay off a % of my human workforce."
Von Ahn worries .. a Duolingo AI tutor could go “haywire,” and start “getting into some Nazi stuff. We're prepared. Not that we have major contingency plans, but I'm prepared for it to happen. And that's okay.”
“The benefits outweigh the potential problems.”

That a dude with a couple cameras and a plate of appetizers can make something worth $82.5 million and a media company looks at that and goes "couldn't we make even more money if we had AI do it?" tells you exactly how stupid these people are
The $82.5 million sale of "Hot Ones" studio First We Feast is part of a broader strategy at BuzzFeed to shift away from human editors, writers and content producers in favor of artificial intelligence, which result in "high-margin, tech-enabled revenue lines."
BuzzFeed sells "Hot Ones" studio for $82.5 million as it pursues more AI-driven content
The company said the sale will allow it to depend less on human-created content in favor of "high-margin, tech-enabled revenue lines."
