I keep reviewing plots from students were the y-axis does not start from zero - why? ChatGPT usually makes plots that focus only at the values of the points. Does it annoy any of you too?

Has anyone done or seen any work on the dating app Raya? I have a student who wants to do her verification case study on it, but she (nor I) can find any work on it.

" Optifye.ai, a member of Y Combinator’s current cohort, sparked a social media backlash that ended up with YC deleting it off its socials." Optifye helps factory owners "know who’s working — and who isn’t — in “real-time” thanks to AI-powered security cameras it places on assembly lines."

Please do not frame this as an AI race. It is not a useful lens. Europe needs investment, innovation, and public value driven AI. The world does not need an AI arms race on the conditions of irresponsible companies or erratic political leadership.
