Traffic deaths are way up: That’s the explanation for all the speed cameras being installed across the U.S. Is it truly a way to make streets safer or a cash grab? Good points on both sides here.
When I read how some grieving parents are using AI to grab the emotions of lawmakers, I thought you’d want to know about it, too. I will warn you this is not one of my usual happy stories.

That’s what video game Baldur’s Gate 3 brought in for Hasbro last year. It’s based on Dungeons & Dragons. Old-school nerds, this one is for you!
The Air Pure now starts at $69,900. I’d steer clear. Fisker did the same thing with its hybrid before the company went out of business.
How much HP’s CEO earned in 2023. Poor Enrique Lores got a 7% pay cut — which still comes to $19.46 million in pay, stocks and perks. HP says his actual take-home was $12,858,597. So, he’s fine.
That’s following 5,000 layoffs in 2022. The internet networking company is doing what a bunch of other tech outfits have done: Laying folks off to work on AI.
