Ted Cruz AI bill could let firms bribe Trump to avoid safety laws, critics warn

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-30 02:21:08

Critics are slamming Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-Texas) new AI policy framework, which they claim would give the White House unprecedented authority to allow Big Tech companies to make "sweetheart" deals with the Trump administration to void laws designed to protect the public from reckless AI experiments. Under the framework, Cruz calls for a "light-touch" regulatory approach to "advance American leadership" in AI and ensure that "American values" are at the heart of the world's leading technology—not

CEO Demands Employees Start Using AI, Fires Anyone Who Doesn't

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-27 09:07:50

Almost three years since the release of OpenAI's explosively popular ChatGPT, it's clear that artificial intelligence isn't exactly taking the job market by storm. Sure, AI makes a convenient cover for business executives who were already looking to downsize or outsource their labor force, but the tech's myriad hallucination issues, legal risks, and security baggage make it ill-suited to automate human jobs. That's to say nothing of the fact that 95 percent of businesses gunning for an AI overh

Coinbase CEO explains why he fired engineers who didn’t try AI immediately

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-10-30 20:07:21

It’s hard to find programmers these days who aren’t using AI coding assistants in some capacity, especially to write the repetitive, mundane bits. But those who refused to try the tools when Coinbase bought enterprise licenses for GitHub Copilot and Cursor got promptly fired, CEO Brian Armstrong said this week on John Collison’s podcast “Cheeky Pint.” (Collison is the co-founder and president of the payments company Stripe.) After getting licenses to cover every engineer, some at the cryptocur

Is your iPhone alarm not going off? 6 potential fixes that worked for me

zdnet.com Elyse Betters Picaro 2025-11-21 18:28:00

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET I started noticing something very annoying at the beginning of the year: I'd set my iPhone alarm for 7 a.m., only to sleep right through it. At first I assumed it was my mistake -- maybe I'd accidentally left the ringer volume all the way down. But after double-checking that, even switching off vibrate and cranking the volume all the way up overnight, the problem persisted. Somewhere between frustration and desperation, I installed a third-party alarm app to try an

Microsoft's Clippy Crocs Might Be the World's Weirdest Pair of Shoes

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-26 03:35:00

Crocs are an infamously ugly shoe style that was once named to Time's list of the 50 worst inventions. Clippy is an annoying animated paperclip from Microsoft that once made that same list. So maybe it's fate that the two much-mocked products are teaming up for a pair of limited-edition Crocs the wearer can deck out with a smiling Clippy accessory. According to The Verge, the Crocs are part of Microsoft's celebration of its 50th anniversary, and are right now only available for preorder by Micr

Voice Controlled Swarms

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-23 00:14:55

Inspired by Command School from Enders Game, let’s make swarms that we can control with our voice! We will do this by having a voice-to-text program feed our voice commands into an LLM, and then that LLM can run a bunch of commands to control the swarm. Below is the final result. Your browser does not support the video tag. And we will make this in two parts: First we will create a general voice-controller that can plug into any application that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). As

Neil Armstrong's customs form for moon rocks (2016)

by Barbara Blum If you have ever traveled overseas, then returned to the U.S., you likely filled out a “customs declaration” form on the airplane: “Are you bringing with you: plants, food, animals, soil, disease agents, cell cultures or snails? Declare all articles that you have acquired and are bringing into the United States.” Who would have guessed the regulations would have been enforced so rigorously in 1969 when three men returned to the U.S. from a rather long business trip – to

Lettuce Grow Indoor Farmstand Review: Grow Your Own

wired.com Kat Merck 2026-01-07 18:00:00

Upon receiving the Lettuce Grow Indoor Farmstand in the mail, I did not expect that I’d be enjoying some tea before I’d even unwrapped all the parts. “Is that … Zooey Deschanel? With a Dollar Tree Property Brother?” my husband asked, peering over my shoulder as I unpacked various tubes and parts. And indeed, among the boxes was a glossy handout of a slightly younger-looking Zooey, standing with a man who did vaguely resemble her current husband, Jonathan Scott, of Property Brothers fame.

Trump Goes Haywire on AI Regulation After China Agrees to Major Trade Deal

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-16 03:23:08

American president Donald Trump and Chinese president Xi Jinping have finally resolved a months-long trade dispute revolving around the rare earth metals vital to developing artificial intelligence. It's a resolution that makes it all the more bizarre that the US President is opening the floodgates for an AI arms race with China. Following Trump's baffling "Liberation Day" tariffs back in April, Chinese lawmakers moved to cut the flow of rare earth metals into the US. China has a near-global mo

DOGE Gets the Green Light to Slash Gun Regulations at ATF

Elon Musk may be out of the picture, but the Department of Government Efficiency is still around and being deployed to terrorize the public servants at agencies across the federal government. The latest target: the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, where DOGE will be tasked with slashing gun restrictions, according to the Washington Post.

Brian Armstrong says Coinbase spent $50M fighting SEC lawsuit — and beat it

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-11-11 20:38:22

Coinbase on Friday said the SEC has agreed to drop the lawsuit against the company with prejudice, meaning it cannot be filed again. The move, which is still subject to the approval of the SEC’s Commissioners, is yet another signal that the Trump administration plans to be more friendly to crypto than the SEC was under former leader Gary Gensler. The SEC’s lawsuit, filed in 2023, alleged that crypto assets were securities and that Coinbase was operating as “an unregistered national securities
