it's absolutely silly how much random knowledge you can accrue with a Bloomberg terminal and a dash of intellectual curiosity.

This is wild, the Reuters reporting implies all the claims are completely fabricated.

Someone just shot at Charlie Kirk at his Utah Valley University "Prove Me Wrong" tour stop. The crowd saw Charlie Kirk fall out of his chair.

The only time I met Noah Smith in person (~2015) he introduced himself as “Noah, everyone follows me on Twitter” and then proceeded to drop multiple n-words singing along to rap during karaoke. Just a really terrible guy.

It seems kinda unfair that Michelle Cooper gets to use the truck stick and Spain doesn’t.

OpenAI Newsroom

@OpenAINewsroom
We discovered a sophisticated recording device that was hidden inside one of our offices. We used our models to understand the device and where it had come from, identifying that a specific employee had planted it a few days earlier. We referred the matter to the FBI, and we’re grateful to the agents and prosecutors who moved quickly to make an arrest. The FBI’s investigation is ongoing and we will continue to support their work.

At this time, we have no indications of this individual inappropriately accessing or exfiltrating model weights, source code, or customer data. The employee was terminated.

We take protecting our technology, data, and people seriously, and as a matter of national importance. Our security program is designed to protect against a wide range of threat actors, from insider risks to cybercriminals to nation states, and this case is an example of how AI can help address these sophisticated security threats.

Slavia Prague just gave up an absolute howler with the keeper not only caught out 20 yards out of his box but a botched clearance from inside the 6 by a defender in position. Sublime stuff.
