In a stance that puts him at odds with other notable NBA stars, Victor Wembanyama says he would never lend his name to FanDuel, Polymarket or any other sports betting site. “Honestly, I think it’s very sad to see some players promote it,” he said. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...

My kids have measles, I can't afford gas, my country has been humiliated by Iran, and our senile rapist president is going to allow unregulated AI to destroy our civilization. But a lesbian bar in a town I've never heard of still has a mask mandate. I have never felt more politically homeless.

The article is brutal. Great student reporting. The chef's kiss is that the reporters found that the provost's letter defending his use of AI for witting op-eds and academic papers was 100% written by AI.
