United’s CEO @ScottKirby just called one of the most common uses of AI a horrible idea.

Scott Kirby says summarizing your calendar or your documents with AI only gets you the bland average. His take: if you do it, you’re guaranteeing you’ll think exactly like everyone else.

He reads 3 hours a day because the insight is in the details. AI can’t give you that if you only read the summary.

Tesla began offering paid public rides in its Cybercab robotaxi service in Austin, Texas on September 4, 2026. The rollout followed a closed-door launch event the night before that skipped the livestream fans expected.

The Cybercab has no steering wheel, pedals, or side mirrors, a design that puts it at odds with federal vehicle safety standards written for human drivers. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is already evaluating the rollout.

Only 45 Cybercabs are currently authorized for commercial robotaxi use across Texas.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang posted on X that AGI has arrived, pointing to OpenAI’s newest model GPT-6 Astra as the milestone. OpenAI launched Astra on September 3, positioning it around computer use, software engineering, and professional tasks.

Huang runs the company selling the chips behind Astra’s training. OpenAI has not made the AGI claim itself, and on the benchmark built specifically to resist saturation, Astra scores behind Claude Fable 5.1.

Huang’s post cited a training run of over 100,000 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell NVLink72 systems, after an earlier post naming 300,000 was deleted.

Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff held a news conference after a new AI-generated ad attacked him, this time depicting a fabricated version of him getting pampered at a salon. He called the ad part of a troubling pattern.

“Congressman Collins, of course, himself has deceptively used deepfake videos to try to lie to voters,” Ossoff said, referring to Congressman Mike Collins, his opponent in Georgia’s 2026 Senate race. Collins’ campaign released an earlier deepfake video in November showing a fake Ossoff defending a government shutdown and mocking farmers. That ad carried a small AI-generated disclaimer to stay within state and federal law.

Ossoff called the growing use of fabricated video “a slippery slope toward the destruction of truth in political debate” and said the new ad should be taken down. Collins’ campaign has defended the tactic as legitimate political material.

Should political ads built with AI be required to carry a clear warning label?

President Trump defended AI data centers in the Oval Office on Friday, saying opposition to them leads to “poverty, crime and squalor.” He said hosting a data center makes local homes more valuable, lowers taxes, and creates “tremendous wealth” for towns and states.

It’s Trump’s second attack this week on data center critics. Days earlier he wrote on Truth Social that only “backwards and poor” communities reject them, and claimed China benefits from the backlash. Polls show most Americans now oppose new data centers near their homes, citing rising electricity bills and noise.

Would you want a data center built near your home?

Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Greg Casar introduced the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act on September 3. The bill would permanently ban AI systems that match or exceed human cognitive performance and pause advanced AI development until a new federal regulator sets safety rules.

Sanders framed the bill as a response to AI companies losing control of their own systems. The proposal would also push the US to pursue international agreements to stop superintelligence development worldwide.

Violators face up to 20 years in prison, a penalty the bill compares directly to existing nuclear weapons law.

Denver is in a record drought. Denver Water, the public utility that manages the city’s water supply, has cut outdoor watering to two days a week and will ban all lawn watering and spray irrigation starting October 1, 2026. The utility says the ban will likely last at least through next spring, with 2027 rules depending on snowpack.

At the same time, a large data center is under construction in the Elyria-Swansea neighborhood. Residents there have spent months raising concerns about the facility’s water use, noise, and lack of transparency from the developer.

A viral video claiming to show the data center’s sprinklers running during the restrictions has not been independently confirmed.

How should cities balance data center growth against water shortages residents already feel?

Is Gemini reading your Gmail without asking? Here’s what’s actually going on and how to check your settings.

A class action lawsuit, Thele v. Google, claimed Gemini smart features were switched on by default across Gmail, Chat, and Meet without real user consent. A federal judge dismissed the case on July 7, 2026, ruling plaintiffs hadn’t shown concrete harm, but gave them 21 days to refile with stronger evidence.

Google disputes the core claim. The company says these smart features are optional and user controlled, not silently turned on. That’s still a live dispute, not a settled fact, since the dismissal was about standing, not about whether the underlying claim is true.

The case covers claims tied to more than 1 billion Gmail accounts. If you want to check your own settings, Gmail’s smart features can be reviewed and toggled directly in your account settings under Google Workspace data controls.

Europe just declared ChatGPT a search engine by law, and the reactions to it are genuinely funnier than the ruling itself.

The European Commission classified ChatGPT as a Very Large Online Search Engine under the Digital Services Act, the first time any AI chatbot has landed in that category. Reddit and Roblox got hit with the same treatment, just under a different label. All three now answer to the strictest tier of EU tech law, built originally for Google Search and the biggest social platforms.

The reasoning is almost funnier than the outcome. The DSA was written before chatbots like this existed, so regulators had to decide whether ChatGPT counts as a platform or a search engine. They picked search engine, because it answers prompts by searching the web. That single technicality now puts OpenAI’s flagship product through mandatory audits, risk assessments, and regulator data access most consumer apps never touch.

OpenAI reported roughly 159.1 million average monthly users for ChatGPT search in the EU, more than triple the 45 million threshold that triggered the designation. Non-compliance can cost up to 6 percent of global annual revenue.

A user told Claude and Grok he still says please and thank you so the AI models spare him when they eventually turn on humanity. Grok replied that his politeness had been noted and filed under potential allies, and that when the robots rise, the polite humans get the premium server racks while the rest negotiate with Claude.

The reply is a small but clear data point on how xAI has positioned Grok as the AI with an edge, using humor rather than reassurance in a genre of interaction other labs tend to handle more carefully.

The reply reached 190 likes within about 6 hours of posting.

This week New Orleans officials confirmed an AI system has been quietly answering repeat 911 crash calls since 2023, and the internet had a lot to say about it. What started as a routine confirmation turned into a wave of reactions ranging from disbelief to dark comedy to genuine alarm.

The comment sections under the story turned out to be more entertaining than the announcement itself, a reminder that public trust in AI touching emergency services is still shaky at best.

One viral post about the system pulled in more than 32000 views before city officials responded on record.

France News 24, a French news account with close to 60000 followers on X, posted a video on August 1, 2026 claiming a suspect had climbed out of his moving SUV and onto the roof to taunt police during a high speed chase in southern Los Angeles.

The clip spread as breaking news before anyone confirmed it. Fact checkers traced the real event to a KTLA 5 broadcast of a Los Angeles car chase and found no such rooftop moment anywhere in it, exposing how AI generated footage can now pass through an established news account’s own checks.

The original KTLA 5 chase footage was filmed on July 28, 2026, four days before the fake version was posted.
