    America.gov gets really weird when you ask it about Minecraft, but it's not a glitch | TechCrunch (opens the original)

    The U.S. government on Tuesday launched its very own AI chatbot — or do we have to call it an SI chatbot now? Regardless, the engineers who worked on the chatbot would undoubtedly know that as a government-hosted, public-facing AI tool, the internet was going to red team the heck out of this thing. The government partnered with Google and SpaceXAI to help build the America.gov chatbot, which has proved difficult for people to jailbreak so far. (It’s worth nothing, however, that the chatbot says

    Can a chatbot fix the government maze? The White House is about to find out | TechCrunch (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that the White House is launching America.gov, an AI chatbot intended to help people find government services and other information. Google confirmed that it is a partner on this launch and that its AI model, Gemini, is involved, but it’s unclear if other AI companies also contributed. “Instead of forcing citizens to search through the endless maze of tens of thousands of government websites and rules … you’ll now have one front door for every single q

    Meadow lets you leave your smartphone at home without sacrificing the essentials | TechCrunch (opens the original)

    I held my breath as I walked into the concert venue and showed the bouncer a ticket barcode on a three-inch, square screen. “If it doesn’t go through, I can try something else,” I said quickly, worried that the barcode wouldn’t work. But just as Meadow founder Shreyas Narlanka promised me, the code I scanned onto the startup’s minimalist phone earlier that day worked fine. “Cool phone,” the bouncer said, ushering me inside. I’d done it. With Meadow’s bare-bones smartphone, I had called an Uber,

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    We live in a bewildering time, where the world’s most powerful people are trying to make themselves cyborgs, conquer the inevitability of death, and colonize outer space. But in the midst of such a jarring moment in the history of humanity, the world throws you a bone. In this cursed timeline, we have been gifted something so unfathomable that we could never have imagined it, because even in our wildest dreams, we wouldn’t have come up with something so perfect: a Nathan Fielder documentary abou

    Tilly Norwood's press tour is going about as well as you'd expect for an AI | TechCrunch (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Tilly Norwood, an AI-generated “actress,” is having a rough time on its first press tour. The production company that created it, Particle6 Group, has made it available for seventy-five simultaneous interviews with journalists, and it seems to be making mistakes in all of them. (I was not invited to speak with it, and frankly, I cannot imagine why Particle6 didn’t want to schedule that meeting.) In one particularly odd interview with Piers Morgan and actor Tom Conti, which was recorded and poste
