gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2026-02-24 15:36:18

Elon Musk is threatening to launch his own political party called the America Party if President Donald Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” passes.

Back in February of this year, Qualcomm quietly published the source code for interacting with EUD.

The more we learn about what that looks like in practice, the less it sounds like a good idea. That's not entirely surprising: even AI experts remain hazy on exactly how the tech actually works, top companies in the industry still struggle to control their chatbots, and a wave of reporting has found that AI is pushing vulnerable people into severe mental health crises.
