Also according to Deutsche Bank all this AI spending is the only thing keeping the US economy from meeting the technical definition of a recession:

The AI boom is unsustainable unless tech spending goes ‘parabolic,’ Deutsche Bank warns: ‘This is highly unlikely’ | Fortune

“In the absence of tech-related spending, the U.S. would be close to, or in, recession this year,” George Saravelos says.

Law enforcement is using AI to synthesize evidence. Is the justice system ready for it?

Busy law enforcement agencies are trying out AI platforms that process large amounts of evidence to help officers build cases. Experts say there are potential dangers for everyone involved.

OpenAI certainly thought this through.

People Are Crashing Out Over Sora 2’s New Guardrails

OpenAI’s Sora 2 platform started just one week ago as an AI-generated copyright infringement free-for-all. Now, people say they’re struggling to generate anything without being hit with a violation error.

The rest of the article is behind a paywall, but I'm not clear on how that would work. AI can't taste. At best it would be repackaging human opinions at which point you might as well just use the human opinions.
