This week:
-Google released its new AI update, Google Gemini. At first, people were amazed by its ability to give stunning, photo-realistic pictures through a simple text prompt. However, it wasn’t long before people realized it was nearly impossible to get Gemini to create an image with a white person in it. Prompts from “create an image of a pope” to “create an image of the founding fathers” all the way to “create an image of someone eating mayo on white bread…” still, not one white person in sight! We will look at the scary reason that is happening!
-Donald Trump has been ordered to pay over 450 million dollars after losing a civil fraud case in New York City, claiming he manipulated the value of his assets to obtain business financing. Trump can only appeal the decision once he puts up $35 million in bail or puts the total amount into escrow. On top of that, every day he does not pay the fine, he is charged interest on it. Attorney General Leticia James reminds us of this by tweeting the increase in his fine almost every day. Is this the work of a hard-nosed AG or a sorry-winner gloating over someone’s loss?
-Last week, a back-and-forth on social media between TikTok star Madi Hart and her estranged dad went viral. The woman claims she was abandoned, but the dad hit back, claiming he was never a deadbeat dad. Who is right, who is wrong, and what is the MUCH more significant issue at play here?
-And One More segment, looking at the rollercoaster relationship between comedian Shane Gillis and Saturday Night Live. In 2019, Gillis was announced as a new cast member but fired before his debut when non-politically correct skits surfaced online. Just five years later, the comedian hosted the show last weekend! Is this a sign that Cancel Culture is officially dead, or just a lesson to learn from how Shane got back in SNL’s good graces?
