Baltimore is seeing the city’s fewest homicides in 50 years. Here’s why. Multiple people have taken credit for the historic drop that mirrors a national decrease in violent crimes. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott says it’s due to a community-based approach to gun violence.

A.I. Hallucinations Are Getting Worse, Even as New Systems Become More Powerful A new wave of “reasoning” systems from companies like OpenAI is producing incorrect information more often. Even the companies don’t know why.

This is your weekly reminder that AI does not understand its output, does not "search" for answers, and, because it produces content based on probabilities, generates incorrect info. Despite what the tech bros say, the human brain is a wonderful thing. Use it. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/05/t...

Plenty of politicians on both sides of the aisle feel threatened by rising class consciousness.

The image holds a planetary nebula, a glowing shell of material thrown off by a dying star. A glowing, jagged ring encircles a small central region of greenish clouds, making it appear like a hole torn in fabric. This “hole” is itself encircled by a band of silvery-blue clouds and a larger, fainter, yellow ring of gas.
