Trump Says He Had A Speech 'Rewritten By AI' And Decided 'I'm Going To
Use This'

Trump also discussed other AI-related topics on the podcast, including
deep fakes. The former president said he saw a deepfake of him
promoting a product "and I could not tell [that it was fake], the
voice was perfect, the lips moved perfectly with every wordâ¦if you
were a lip reader, you'd say it's absolutely perfect." Trump said he
thought this was "scary" and gave an example of a deepfake being made
of a sitting U.S. president, in which they announce that "13 nuclear
missiles" have been launched against a rival nation and they will hit
in less than 13 minutes. Trump said he asked Elon Musk if there was
any way that in such an event Russia or China could say "that's not
really President Trump" and Musk told him "there is no way."Trump's
remarks about artificial intelligence and deepfakes come amid growing
concerns about the use of generative AI tools to spread disinformation
ahead of the presidential elections this year. In January, a robocall
featuring a deepfake voice of President Joe Biden urged Democrats in
New Hampshire to not vote in the state's presidential primary. The
calls were eventually traced back to a Texas-based company, Life
Corporation. Since then, the Federal Communications Commission has
banned the use of artificial intelligence-generated robocalls. Last
year, the Republican National Committee published an attack ad
targeting Biden, which used AI-generated imagery to show a
post-apocalyptic America if the president won a second term.

"This landmark acquisition is a significant step forward in Ambuja
Cement's accelerating growth journey," Ajay Kapur, CEO of Ambuja
Cement said in a statement. With the acquisition, "Ambuja is poised to
expand its market presence in south India and reinforce its position
as a pan-India leader in the cement industry."The deal will boost
Ambuja's annual cement production capacity by 14 million tonnes to
about 89 million tonnes, bringing it closer to its target of 140
million tonnes by 2028. That will help narrow the gap with billionaire
Kumar Mangalam Birla's Ultratech Cement, the country's largest cement
manufacturer which produces almost 153 million tonnes annually.

A price measure that strips out energy costs and the effect of
interest-rate changes rose 3% from a year earlier, according to
data published by Statistics Sweden on Friday. That was higher than
the median estimate of 2.6% in a Bloomberg survey of analysts as well
as the central bank’s 2.9% forecast.While some of the increase in
prices could be explained by an increase in accommodation prices as
Taylor Swift fans flooded the nation’s capital for three concerts,
prices of clothing, food and travel also increased. Hotel prices rose
by 11% from April, the biggest monthly increase since May 2019, and
larger than May last year, when two Beyoncé shows in the capital
attracted some 100,000 spectators.

“I’m just so grateful,” said Cynthia Diamond, a 61-year-old
former line cook who uses a wheelchair and used to be chronically
homeless. “I have my own door key. I ain’t got to worry about
nobody knocking on my door, telling me when to eat, sleep or do
anything. I’m going to stay here as long as the Lord allows me to
stay here.”Faced with years of rising homelessness rates and
failed solutions, city officials across the U.S. have been embracing
rapid housing options emphasizing three factors: small, quick and
cheap. Officials believe micro communities, unlike shelters, offer
stability that, when combined with wraparound services, can more
effectively put residents on the path to secure housing.

position of having sold two startups within 12 months. I say "lucky,"
but neither of those startups was my first startup, neither of them
was my first success, and both of them were founded after I had
already put 15 years into the startup game.You might assume that, like
many fortunate folks before me, I tripped feet first into startup
success, and then decided my next logical step was to start investing
in startups myself. Then I learned a very expensive lesson and shouted
a lot of swear words and quit investing in startups altogether.

Today’s software makes it easier to track patterns, trends, and even
granular details of how customers use products. This data is collected
in systems that support marketing, sales, finance, and operations. But
many companies aren’t sure how they can best support employees who
are overseeing hundreds of unique relationships. They’re grappling
with how to manage and use all their data to improve customer
retention. And they’re wondering how they can assess the health of
their customer relationships before it’s too late. One solution is
the use of customer‑health scores. In this article the authors
introduce a model that any B2B company can use to measure and improve
customer health. They identify three dimensions of customer
health—customer-relationship quality, product usage, and value
realization—and offer advice on how to measure and weigh relevant
metrics. The authors then take an in-depth look at how BigCommerce, an
e-commerce platform, developed and refined its customer-health model.
They share five lessons the company learned through the process,
including how to identify the relationship between health and churn,
and that a flywheel effect occurs as health scoring matures.

The Secret Code of Pickup Basketball

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=17682&nl=daily]
The only immovable object on my weekly calendar is a Sunday-night
basketball game. We play in a rented gym in Washington, D.C., usually
at a high school, because we’re all conserving cartilage and the
local middle schools don’t place much cushioning underneath the
hardwood. The game has been running for more than 20 years, but it
wasn’t always on Sunday nights, and none of the original players is
still around. When people get hurt or move away, they’re replaced
like planks on the Ship of Theseus. The continuity of the game is the
important thing. It has to stay in motion, but not because anyone is
trying to get somewhere. None of our regulars retains any ambition of
climbing up to some higher echelon of organized basketball, at least I
hope not. That’s part of the game’s magic. The enlivening
competitive energies that it summons have no higher purpose. They are
entirely internal to the game. Play in earliest childhood has this
quality.In 2015, Nick Rogers, now a sociologist at the University of
Pittsburgh, conducted an ethnography of a pickup-basketball game. Like
an anthropologist who heads into the bush to live with tribe members,
Rogers became one of the game’s regulars. During breaks, he took
hurried notes on his iPhone. (Nice work, if you can get it.) Rogers
wanted to understand the paradox of pickup basketball. Its culture is
aggressively masculine. Its players tend to be diverse in age, race,
and class. They jostle one another, elbow to elbow. They collide with
full force. They get loud. And yet, fights are relatively rare. Rogers
believes that this carefully pitched intensity is enabled by a special
set of norms. These aren’t etched into stone like the Ten
Commandments, he told me, but the players he interviewed on the
sidelines were all fluent in them, and even reverent toward them. This
unspoken code keeps the game from tipping over into violence. It
allows a small group of perfect strangers with little in common
besides basketball to experience a flow state—a brief, but intense,
form of group transcendence.

American Women Are at a Breaking Point

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=17682&nl=daily]
Parenting in modern America is a high-wire act. For many parents, the
experience is shaped by the dominant expectation of intensive,
hands-on involvement; stressful competition for scarce slots in
child-care and summer-camp programs; and a seemingly endless parade of
breakdowns in areas as varied as infant-formula supply and college
financial-aid forms. In the past few years, something of a cottage
industry has sprung up for books detailing how difficult it is to be a
parent, and particularly a mother, in modern America. Titles such as
Jessica Grose’s Screaming on the Inside: The Unsustainability of
American Motherhood and Tim Carney’s Family Unfriendly: How Our
Culture Made Raising Kids Much Harder Than It Needs to Be come to
mind.In her new book, Holding It Together: How Women Became
America’s Safety Net, the sociologist Jessica Calarco joins this
conversation, and also pulls it in a new direction. She argues that
America intentionally dumps onto women the burden of caring for all
those who need it, whether children, the elderly, or those with
long-term illnesses and disabilities. And she shows why doing so is
harmful, not only for women, but for all of society.

Walgreens executive says it is 'doubling down' on recruiting customers

Other retailers have struggled with similar efforts to expand beyond

trial endeavors after two years, and earlier this year, Walmart closed
several of its medical clinics. Walgreens hasn’t escaped such
troubles either, announcing earlier this year it was closing 160 of
its Village MD clinics due to slow growth.Despite this, Walgreens is
“doubling down” on its efforts in clinical trials, said Ramita

worked as the chief operating officer of Trio Health, a clinical data
solution provider, and the executive vice president of
commercialization and health outcomes at the clinical research

Certificate of need laws con rural patients out of health care

News watchers around the U.S. have likely seen the warnings: without
certificate of need (CON) laws, hospitals will be forced to close
their doors when for-profit organizations open and cherry pick
commercially insured patients, leaving those in rural areas without
care. The reality is that even with certificate of need laws in place,
rural patients are already without care. States with these laws have
30% fewer rural hospitals and 13% fewer rural ambulatory surgical
centers.CON laws require a state government to approve the
establishment or expansion of health care facilities, services, or
equipment. These certificates are essentially a government-mandated
permission slip that individual health care providers, physician
groups, hospitals, and health systems must obtain before they are
allowed to care for patients. Essentially, CON laws empower
bureaucrats to decide what health care services are offered, instead
of that decision being driven by patients’ needs.

G-7 leaders from Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, the United

But political turmoil at home underpinned much of their discussions as

Minister Giorgia Meloni, who is hosting this year’s summit, emerged
from European Union parliamentary elections over the weekend as a
clear victor. But the other G-7 states face unstable political home
fronts. French President Emmanuel Macron called for snap elections on
Sunday after the country’s far-right National Rally party

Chancellor Olaf Scholz was forced to reckon with the far-right
Alternative for Germany party becoming the country’s second-most
popular party after Europe’s elections concluded.

Worse for Modi, he suffered a double personal blow in the elections.
His party lost a majority of seats in Uttar Pradesh, India’s largest
state, once considered an impregnable fortress for his brand of Hindu
nationalism and identity politics. It was only this January that Modi
consecrated a temple in the state to the Hindu deity Ram, in a
ceremony that both represented the fulfilment of decades of Hindu
nationalist agitation and conjured a euphoric triumph for the prime
minister. And for the first time, the party also did not do well in
constituencies where Modi spent time campaigning. Voters seemed to be
turned off by what was one of the most vicious and vitriolic BJP
campaigns of recent years, replete with explicit hate speech directed
at India’s minority Muslim community.But can his alliance partners
trust him? Even if his personality does not prove an obstacle, the
suspicions of his allies might. There are at least two potential
stumbling blocks here. The first is that as the BJP consolidates its
power, it typically gains an advantage over its alliance partners, by
hook or by crook. Alliances allow the BJP to broaden its appeal and
acceptability in the states home to its allies; eventually the party
begins to make inroads into the base of those alliance partners. In
this way, the BJP has in the past used its power to break up smaller
parties, attracting legislators through the allure of its power and
integrating them within the BJP. Neither of Modi’s principal allies,
N. Chandrababu Naidu, the leader of the Telugu Desam Party, or Nitish
Kumar, the head of the Janata Dal (United), will be unaware of these
dangers. If they let the BJP get too successful, they put their own
growth at risk.

he knew just the spot.Between 10 million and 15 million years ago, in

probing the cracks in a fossil seabed. Over the eons, the pockets grew

through your kidneys into your bladder. “Time to pull over,” you

It’s been five years since Marvel announced plans to bring Blade
into its cinematic universe. Mahershala Ali felt like the perfect
actor to update the vampire hunter for a new era, and Marvel found a
promising new director in Bassam Tariq. But the intervening years
haven’t done much to instill confidence in Blade. With several
behind-the-scenes shake-ups, including the loss of Tariq and a handful
of screenwriters, its 2025 release date is looking less doable by the
day.Now Blade has hit yet another snag. Yann Demange, the director who
succeeded Tariq, has also parted ways with Marvel. This update comes
via The Wrap, and though Demange’s departure was “entirely
amicable,” it casts yet another shadow over an already-trouble
production.

Unless you’re playing Space Channel 5, dancing usually isn’t the
best way to stop the world from ending. The other exception comes in
Crypt of the NecroDancer: Cadence of Hyrule, a rare Legend of Zelda
spinoff not made by Nintendo that presents a very different adventure
for Zelda and Link. Released on June 13, 2019, Cadence of Hyrule
proves great things can happen when a publisher lets someone else take
a swing at a beloved series. Five years later, there’s still nothing
quite like it.Cadence of Hyrule is actually a spinoff of both The
Legend of Zelda and the 2015 indie rhythm game Crypt of the
NecroDancer. In that game, players descend into a dungeon full of
monsters, all dancing to the beat of the soundtrack. Each enemy has
its own pattern, some simply running in circles and others following
more complex routines of moving and pausing. Players also need to move
to the beat, advancing one square at a time on a grid. Colliding with
an enemy when they’re not moving toward you damages them, but
getting hit by being in their path means taking damage yourself.

For almost 20 years, Andrzej Żuławski’s Possession was almost
impossible to find — at least, in its original uncut version.
Despite a prestigious premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in 1981,
the gonzo psychological horror film was quickly labeled a “video
nasty” and banned in the U.K., while only a heavily edited 81-minute
version (as opposed to the original 124-minute version) was released
in the U.S. For decades it was out of circulation, with the full
version only being made available on home video in 2000.Despite this,
or maybe because of it, Possession grew to be a cult classic. But
Possession is more than just its impenetrable reputation — it’s
truly one of the most deeply disturbing, deeply personal, and
remarkably uncompromising horror films of all time. Which is why
it’s such a folly for anyone to attempt a remake of it.

As Pixar, which distinguished itself from the start as a purveyor of
delightfully and movingly original animated features (and proved with
last year’s Elemental that it still has that touch), now seems
equally devoted to sequelizing all its past triumphs, Inside Out 2 was
a cause for both anticipation and apprehension. With its note-perfect
evocation through personalization of the core emotions operating
within the psyche of 11-year-old Riley, and one classic tearjerker of
a scene, 2015’s Inside Out was an especially tough act to follow,
even as it ended with hints of a potential second chapter: The new
Puberty button on the emotions’ upgraded console and Joy’s closing
line, “Riley’s 12 now. What could happen?”The answer to that
question in Inside Out 2, which rejoins Riley (Kensington Tallman) as
she turns 13, is: plenty. The squabbly yet smoothly running
Headquarters of the girl’s mind is disrupted by that Puberty alarm
going off, and a destructive/reconstructive incursion by those blobby
little workers, making way for the arrival of new emotions. Joining
Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Anger (Lewis Black),
Disgust, and Fear (the latter two performed by Liza Lapira and Tony
Hale, smoothly taking over for Mindy Kaling and Bill Hader) are the
quartet that have so much sway over young teen experience. Ennui
(Adèle Exarchopoulos), Embarrassment (Paul Walter Hauser), Envy (Ayo
Edebiri), and especially Anxiety (Maya Hawke) have been visually
conceived and voiced just as amusingly as the first team. With her
wide eyes and explosion of frizzy hair making her somewhat resemble an
electrocuted troll doll, Anxiety is a living burst of manic energy who
quickly bids to take control of Riley’s actions.

In The Acolyte Episode 3, titled "Destiny," it's finally revealed what
really happened between Mae and Osha (Amandla Stenberg) on their home
planet of Brendok over a decade prior to the main events of the show.
The episode offers viewers a glimpse into the twin sisters' life as
the only two children in a witch coven led by their mothers, Aniseya
(Jodie Turner-Smith) and Koril (Margarita Levieva) — a life that
ends with the fire that not only tore Mae and Osha apart, but also
resulted in the deaths of their entire coven.Osha, at least, is
certainly led to believe that it was Mae's fire that killed their
family. "Destiny," however, stops short of confirming whether or not
that's what actually happened, and The Acolyte has already given Star
Wars fans plenty of reasons to doubt the version of events that's sold
to Osha at the end of the episode. The chapter's tragic third act even
leaves the door open for a future reveal that could very well alter
Osha's view of the Jedi Order and even her teacher, Master Sol (Lee
Jung-jae), forever.

Disaster movies are timeless because, well, there’s so much that can
go wrong. An airborne illness can sweep the planet. A massive
earthquake could turn California to rubble. Global warming could throw
the world into chaos. These movies work because the scenario feels
real, even if the specifics are usually exaggerated for the sake of an
awesome explosion or two. But sometimes, the most amazing disaster
movies come from the most unlikely of possibilities — like an alien
invasion, or the Moon crashing down to Earth, or a Sharknado. Now,
thanks to Netflix, we can add one more movie to that popular subgenre.

Some people seem to be more resilient to developing Alzheimer’s
diseases, despite having the biological hallmarks of the devastating
disease. For obvious reasons, scientists are very interested in
studying this special group of people.Alzheimer’s disease, the most
common form of dementia, is thought to start because of a build-up of
two proteins in the brain: amyloid and tau. Once these proteins
accumulate, for yet-to-be-determined reasons, they become toxic to
brain cells (neurons) and these cells start dying. As a result, people
develop symptoms such as memory loss because the brain can’t
function properly with all these dead neurons.
