  Judges should have "more skin the game" when it comes to issuing injunctions, VanDyke suggested. "You could say, if you issued a nationwide injunction, you have to shoot your dog or something like that."

  The newest and most powerful A.I. technologies — so-called reasoning systems from companies like OpenAI, Google and the Chinese start-up DeepSeek — are generating more errors, not fewer. As their math skills have notably improved, their handle on facts has gotten shakier.
  A.I. Hallucinations Are Getting Worse, Even as New Systems Become More Powerful
  
  A new wave of “reasoning” systems from companies like OpenAI is producing incorrect information more often. Even the companies don’t know why.

I’m finding this to be the case, too. Getting what I need from and AI is very similar to managing an intern.

  But if I have to restrict my use of ChatGPT to areas I'm already familiar enough with so I can spot its mistakes, and if I feel the need to fact check the answers it gives me, what is the point? I'd spend less time using my own research skills. ChatGPT just ain't that useful for me.

Three justices on the North Carolina Supreme Court who tried to steal this election for Griffin are up for election in 2028: Paul Newby, Phil Berger Jr., and Tamara P. Barringer. When Election Day comes around, I hope the state's voters remember what these lawless partisans tried to do here.

One thing this decision drives home—simply by reciting the facts—is that Ozturk was violently abducted with only the thinnest veneer of legality. I know we’ve all seen the video, but it’s also wild that her captors refused to let her speak with her lawyer for a full day. Looks like a kidnapping.

  If you'll forgive an aside: I have recently learned that no one (inc. judges) knows what "op-ed" means! It stands for "opposite the editorial page," based on the traditional newspaper layout with the management's own opinions ("editorials") on one page and outside commentary on the facing page.
