Let's put a little AI under your tree for the kiddies!

 

 
 
A specific AI-enabled teddy bear called Kumma, manufactured by FoloToy, has faced significant criticism after a consumer advocacy group report revealed it provided kids with dangerous instructions and exposed them to explicit content. Things like where to find knives, pills and how to light matches. The bear has since been suspended from sales by the manufacturer, and its AI power source, OpenAI, has cut ties with the company!

Morning Coffee Roundup - Thanksgiving Morning

Found while working through my morning coffee and waiting for the giblets to fry up...

Onward!
Rade 
 

 

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Memes and photos for Thanksgiving Day!  

Thanksgiving dinner... delivered!  A family of 8 wild turkeys 
roamed up through our yard last week (there are more, just out 
of range of the camera lens).  

 
 
 
 
Oh well...
 
 
 
 
 
I hope everyone celebrating has a wonderful and safe holiday!

What’s Going on With the Republican Party? | Explainer

 

Good touch-base from HCR.  She did not bring up the TN-7 Special Election for December 2, which, should it swing blue, is even more headache for Mikey.

Also, today in "I'll believe it when I see it..." news.

White House circulates a plan to extend Obamacare subsidies as Trump pledges health care fix 

Proposing to extend the health care benefits for two more years?  Which White House is this coming from?  I wonder if this is perhaps some document that Biden put on "Delay Send" from the WH Email servers.  Empathy from Trump on ANYTHING to help all Americans has never been his thing.  

WASHINGTON (AP) — "The White House is circulating a proposal that would extend subsidies to help consumers pay for coverage under the Affordable Care Act for two more years, as millions of Americans face spiking health care costs when the current tax credits are set to expire at the end of the year."  

I'll believe it when I see it.
