AI could be warning you about Florida’s next hurricane Florida’s Emergency Management team rolled out new AI technology Wednesday that, they say, will save lives during future emergencies.

The person who warns you about Florida’s next hurricane might not be a person at all. Try artificial intelligence. FLDEM has partnered with UF and Futuri to create BEACON— which aims to turn emergency info into a 24/7 AI radio station. More here… and Terminator references:

The @fladems.bsky.social out with a statement on Pam Bondi’s tap as next US Attorney General.

DeSantis wraps five-day trade mission in Italy Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is out of the office this week. He and more than 80 state officials said “ciao” to Italy for five days during a trade mission.

Florida’s gov has a lot of work post trade trip. House/Senate vacancies as Trump taps his cabinet.

FL CFO says the trip brings home the bacon— but @nikkifried.bsky.social:

"I hope Ron's enjoying his taxpayer-funded Italian vacation while Trump picks every Florida Man but him for an appointment."
