This Company Is Secretly Turning Your Zoom Meetings into AI Podcasts WebinarTV hosts 200,000 “webinars.” A Zoom call you may thought was private might be one of them.

This seems horrendous: a company scraping the internet for public links to Zoom meetings and using extensions and other tools to secretly record your meetings. Then broadcasting with added AI slop. 🙀 www.404media.co/this-company...

The ‘automating things’ link in the text at the bottom of the imposter syndrome page is borked (the ‘next page’ one right below it is not. Hope helpful

Truly wonderful tips everyone should read. Stop when you stop thinking, wow I’m going to try that tomorrow and you’ll have reached the bit that isn’t relevant to your job

Open any AI app you choose & have it really dig in on a subject that you know inside & out. Watch for how many errors it produces.
Now imagine that at Pentagon scale, where the AI has no guard rails & is only guided by vibes and whiskey.
Anthropic, $200M, & no legal framework.
What could go wrong?

We are appalled to learn of the killing of Hussein Hasan Hussein Al-Sumairy – a Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) first responder – in Khan Younis earlier today. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Hussein’s family, colleagues and friends.Hussein was killed in Khan Younis while on duty and providing medical services in response to escalating hostilities. PRCS provides essential support to communities in Gaza, particularly in emergency medical services. It is unacceptable that first responders in Gaza continue to face risk to their lives while carrying out a humanitarian mission. It is an outrage that so many staff and volunteers of the PRCS and other first responders have been killed and injured while providing their services since the escalation of armed conflict in Gaza began in October 2023. Medical personnel, units and transport, as well as humanitarian workers and objects used for humanitarian operations must be respected and protected. All feasible steps must be taken to support their work and ensure their safety.

📍 Gaza | We share our heartfelt condolences to the family, colleagues, and friends of Hussein Hasan Hussein Al-Sumairy, who was killed today while providing emergency medical service in Khan Yunis.

Medical personnel and humanitarian workers must be able to carry out their work safely.

No no no. Catherine O’Hara. 💔

Sometimes a TV show or a movie that's intended to be satirical hits like a tragedy because it's too real.

For me, the IT Crowd is that show.

With that caveat, and a quizzical eye re: CSI:Cyber as @thegrugq.bsky.social notes, endorse this list of hacker movies and shows github.com/k4m4/movies-...

Interesting! But on the RCT design: will households who get cash spread benefits with neighbors? If they don't, some preparedness activities won't be possible without tackling risk community-wide. Hope the report is released @give-directly.bsky.social...
