NEW: When he retained Jessica Tisch as @NYPDPC, @NYCMayor Zohran Mamdani didn’t necessarily promise her a “free hand” to run the NYPD, as Mayor John V. Lindsay once promised Commissioner Donald F. Cawley in 1973. He didn't have to. Ms. Tisch took one anyway. (1/3)

[Daniel Edward Rosen @dedwardro]

Months into their partnership, Tisch has expanded the force, kept the overtime budget intact, and increased foot patrols while keeping Mamdani's public safety ambitions at bay. Mamdani, for now, is going along to get along. (2/3)

It’s just a shame that the big guy isn’t around to see these Knicks.

AI is finding a toehold in Amish country. Holmes County, Ohio, has the highest concentration of Amish people of any county in the U.S. Visitors expecting to see traditional horses and buggies, bonnets and Abe Lincoln beards won’t be disappointed. Still, they’ll find one clan of early adopters weaving generative AI into their knowledge work without much hesitation.

There are some 2,600 Amish churches across the country, and each makes its own, separate decisions about what sorts of new hardware and software church members can use. Daniel Wengerd is a minister in his church, which is Old Order Amish, and has played a role in the congregation’s collective decisions to interdict smartphones and social media but to allow e-bikes, flip phones, solar-generated electricity, and religiously curated internet access. Daniel says he sees AI as just another labor-saving tool that might seem a little uncanny at first — until it becomes essential.

“I don’t want to paint a picture that we’re pushing for new technology and we don’t have respect for our traditions and our values,” Daniel says. “We’re not just opening the door to anything.”

And so far, the Wengerds have managed to fence the job-killing, attention-sucking, corner-cutting downsides of generative AI out.

John Wengerd, a chicken-selling property manager, doesn’t see much risk in falling down rabbit holes texting with his chatbot. John has no smartphone and his internet access is mostly filtered and only available at work. “I can’t lay in bed for half an hour asking Chat stuff. So the times when I’m vulnerable it’s not at my fingertips,” he says. “When I go home, I’m riding a horse or feeding chickens.”

NYT confirms — with new details:

Last year, Navy SEALs used two boats to escort Kash Patel and nine others on what a Pentagon email called a 'VIP Snorkel' next to one of the military's most sacred sites, the underwater tomb of the U.S.S. Arizona.

One Navy vet called the swim "horrifying." https://t.co/wuBwyvxaXY
