Meta has had this technology for nearly a decade. I reported on their suicide algorithm and associated privacy concerns for Business Insider. On Facebook, they would create a "suicidality score" for posts, and potentially contact law enforcement. businessinsider.com/facebook-is-us…

Meta is introducing safety measures it says are designed to protect teens using its AI tools, including a feature that it says will alert parents if it believes a teen's conversation with Meta AI suggests they may be considering suicide or self-harm. abcnews.link/btxLXEC

In its lawsuit, Apple claimed OpenAI didn't respond to its initial complaints, which these emails contradict. When we reached Apple's attorney by phone, he declined to comment and hung up.

I tested Meta's new AI image model and detection tool. It lets users deepfake everyday Instagram users, celebrities like Scarlett Johansson, and world leaders like Trump. The detection tool was easily fooled by cropping screenshots of Meta AI images. nbcnews.com/tech/social-me…

New York: it's hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool. Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you're not using, and unplug what you can. Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand, asking private partners to do the same, and powering down non-essential equipment. A stable grid means the AC stays on, and lives are saved. Let's ease demand — and get through the heat — together.
