    As Wisconsin cities flee Flock, its shared camera network loses value (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Perhaps it’s the local summer diet of deep-fried cheese curds, corn on the cob, and Spotted Cow, but Wisconsin residents have been feeling pretty dyspeptic about Flock’s automated license plate cameras. Over the past few months, a spate of Wisconsin towns and cities have withdrawn from Flock deals over privacy and trust concerns. As they did so, another issue revealed itself: With each city that leaves, the Flock network becomes less useful to the cities that remain. And cities are starting to n

    Hank Green found the AI problem that YouTube labels can’t catch (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    YouTube currently requires that content creators let viewers know “when they use AI to meaningfully alter or generate photorealistic content.” The policy draws some strange boundaries. It applies to “AI-generated music” (not photorealistic) but not to “riding a unicorn through a fantastical world” (this could be photorealistic, though it is not plausible). YouTube then summarizes the policy in a different way: “Realistic AI content and meaningful changes require disclosure, while non-realistic o

    An AI-supervised remote exam went so badly that 58,000 students must retake it (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Earlier this summer, nearly 160,000 applicants took the entrance exam for UNAM, Mexico’s largest university. For the first time, they did it completely remotely, using a “lockdown” browser and AI-powered webcam proctoring software, over several weeks from late May through early June. When exam results came in, they bore little resemblance to past results, especially at the top. Between 2021 and 2025, 3.5 percent of test takers scored 100 or more on the 120-question UNAM test. This year, 16.3 per

    How a Yale AI-cheating dispute became a 13-count federal lawsuit (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Rignol paid Yale $208,500 in tuition for its Executive MBA program. But after he was accused of cheating, the school suspended him for a year and gave him an F in the course Sourcing and Managing Funds. This happened despite the fact that Rignol was a “top student, on track to graduate first in his class,” he says. As a result, Rignol missed out on being named class valedictorian, an honor he claims to have earned “under Yale’s own stated criterion.” So Rignol sued the school. His lawsuit has be
