Generative AI is growing in popularity, but there may be a major hurdle to continuing to accept this technology in our daily lives. We still don't trust it. Or, really, we don't trust the companies behind it, according to Deloitte's Connected Consumer Survey of 3,500 US consumers. While more than half (53%) of those surveyed said they're either experimenting with or regularly using generative AI, even more (69%) said they worry innovation is happening too quickly, and that tech companies aren't

“How did we get here?” That existential question about the universe has captivated humankind for centuries. Many scientists have attempted to answer it, including the Rev. Georges Lemaître, a Belgian cosmologist and Catholic priest. In 1927 he theorized that the universe was created from a single particle he called the “primeval atom.” That atom later disintegrated in an explosion, LeMaître figured, creating space, time, and an ever-expanding universe, according to the American Museum of Natur

Throughout his 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump often claimed that his efforts against immigration were primarily against irregular or illegal immigration, and that he was happy to have people go through “proper channels.” Those assurances got weaker as he moved into his first term, but he still made at least rhetorical overtures to legal immigration — he had to appease a business community that was still skeptical of his then-new political movement.
