@AbdulElSayed Congrats!! Very cool to see. Lived in Manhattan few weeks after September 11th - came down to help with other telecom folks. Stayed for 5 years.

A college student just killed the biggest advantage politicians have ever had. The gap between the lie and the fact-check.

He built a Chrome extension called InTruth. It listens to any live speech, debate, or interview.

Transcribes every word. And checks every claim against real sources in real time. Before the speaker even finishes the sentence.

It works on debates. Press conferences. Town halls. Interviews. Anything with someone talking on video. The fact-check shows up on your screen while they're still talking.

Until now, fact-checking happened hours or days later. By then the clip has been shared, the headline has been written, and the damage is done. Nobody reads the correction.

InTruth closes that gap to seconds. The claim and the fact-check exist in the same moment.

A college student, a Chrome extension, and an AI model just did what entire newsrooms couldn't figure out for decades.

Men who were raised with the idea that showing any sign of emotion is a “weakness” are more likely to hide their emotions, which can become overwhelming and may lead them to a point of crisis. https://t.co/8mYGv6OIHK #buddyup

@LeadingReport Lol. Meanwhile Trump fires Krebs when told Russia has literally infiltrated the US during his term. Good luck down there folks.

@CTVNews We don't have this???

@UK_Daniel_Card Ivory tower

@PierrePoilievre Take them down. I'm fiscally conservative (in order to support social programs, not corporate bailouts). We need someone to lead in this crisis. Hoping that's you.

@simonateba Populism and hyper-individualism.

@DonaldJTrumpJr @julie_kelly2 Remember the time your dad fired the head of cybersecurity because of an Intel report describing the influence and cyber ops against the US? Hilarious.

@liberal_party My mortgage payments just went up $1000 a month. Nothing? That's what I thought.

[Bryan McCaffrey @ambient_bryan]

@SG_Tupper @PierrePoilievre It's coming.

[Bryan McCaffrey @ambient_bryan]

@liberal_party Lol. Because everyone was laid off January to March and the lucky ones found new jobs...
