@sree @AnhPhuNguyen1 @CaineArdayfio Sree, there are a hundred ways this could be used for good, but a thousand ways this could be used for evil. I'd say Extremely scary, Very cool. #AI #BraveNewWorld cc: @sree @AnhPhuNguyen1

CBS News Says It Will Be Up To Vance And Walz To Fact-Check Each Other. https://t.co/nhQNlp7HEG ABC showed it could be done. Now: "CBS News is clearly indicating it wants to take a step back from the heat generated by calling attention to misleading statements by candidates."
apnews.com
When JD Vance and Tim Walz take the stage for next week's vice presidential debate, CBS News says it will be up to the candidates, not the moderators, to fact-check each other.

PLEASE SHARE THIS! I’ve been warning about the downsides of AI audio transcription services like @otter_ai, @Zoom AI, etc. They’re l useful and I use them all the time, but everyone in every meeting has to be careful about what’s being recorded and when. #sreetips @digimentors
A VC firm I had a Zoom meeting with used Otter AI to record the call, and after the meeting, it automatically emailed me the transcript, including hours of their private conversations afterward, where they discussed intimate, confidential details about their business.

Did you catch @Oprah last night @DemConvention quoting #RepJohnLewis? “No matter what ship our ancestors arrived on, we’re all in the same boat now.” It’s so gratifying to know that he is still inspiring and encouraging unity. #GoodTrouble #Oprah #OprahWinfrey #DNC #DNC2024
