You're right. I shouldn't have posted your credit card details on all your social media profiles, emailed it to your whole contact book and posted it on the work Slack. Your card is now maxed out and you're wanted for fraud in 8 states

My bad. That's on me and I'm owning that

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

To buy stuff, you can just take a picture of your credit card, drop it in the chat and Grok @Bot will scour the Internet for the best deal on the item you want and order it

I fail to see any problem here

[CONSEQUENCE @consequence]

A glitch on Instagram has caused the platform to repeatedly recommend the band's 1999 hit "Higher," regardless of what users are posting.

The United States is now importing fuel from Russia, per President Trump.

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

@DirtMccGirt Sure ok. But why would us not writing about Hanson's gas policy, make such people "upset"?

@DirtMccGirt Which sponsors do you reckon I'm worried about upsetting? Here's a piece I wrote about One Nation *today*

@AussieCruel And you think that substantially alters the taste when they use something non-animal for this process? Sorry to tell ya mate, most mainstream Australian beers are vegan now

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

"Hold my vegan beer" is so funny because this is clearly meant to be some slam dunk own of The Lefties but they don't realise most beers actually are vegan. Carlton says VB is vegan! Sorry if you're triggered!!!

[one dozen bats at a keyboard @PanasonicDX4500]

genuinely in awe of how the tech fiefdoms sent all their best hype men to try to court the Holy See and the response was Leo staking his entire pontificate on waging a crusade against AI

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

@Brettski_aus Yes that's my point

[Kristi Yamaguccimane @TheWapplehouse]

I’m not even opposed to Ai in all forms if it can be used in technical aspects but guys like this are doing more to turn people completely off of it than anything any anti-Ai person could ever dream of.

[LBark @franzsherbert]

Tech guys be like in six months you're going to be left behind if you don't have an AI "agent." It's the most amazing technology ever. It can delete spam emails for you and sometimes it posts your bank username and password to Wikipedia.

[Crikey @crikey_news]

On One Nation's media ban, a former ABC editorial director tells Crikey: “It’s been disappointing that the journalists here haven’t spoken up enough and, more importantly, their management, the media organisations.”

Im so happy we’ve settled on pervert glasses as a headline marker or second mention. Youre never going to recover from someone calling them your “pervert glasses”

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

@Vicnic01 @deemadigan @GuardianAus Yeah famously, you nailed it

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

Australian Chamber of Commerce & Industry says all three major migration policy plans - Labor, One Nation and today's Coalition - will hurt the economy, urging politicians to "change course"

"All of them chase an arbitrary Net Overseas Migration number ahead of productivity"

[Josh Butler @JoshButler]

OpenAI must explain how they will stop their models from inappropriately accessing Australian data, the chair of the parliament’s committee on artificial intelligence has warned, ahead of federal inquiry hearings today to grill big tech companies on AI

@doctormcdougall Nothing but respect for MY prime minister (whoever this guy in the AI photo is?)
