In fact, a recent report on the use of AI in news media from the Reuters Institute showed a pretty clear pattern of audiences' trust declining the more AI was used in the journalistic process. Only 12% of people were comfortable with fully AI-generated content, increasing to 21% for mostly AI, 43% for mostly human, and a respectable (but, notably, not amazing) 62% for fully human content.
I haven't been transparent? Really? Trump said incredulously. He continued: I've shown this to everybody that would listen. Third-rate reporters didn't see it because they didn't look. You're a third-rate reporter, always have been. I'm just asking Mason could be heard faintly saying in the background. So third-rate reporters didn't look, but anybody that asked, these pictures have been in newspapers, they've been all over the place, and you know, we're very proud of it, Trump continued.
A healthy marketplace is a transparent marketplace Lack of transparency has been part of programmatic advertising nearly from the beginning. To understand this struggle, it's important to understand the early days of real-time bidding. Back in 2007-2008, I was an SVP and GM at MySpace (aka the Fox Audience Network, or FAN), which, at the time, had over 275 million global users and 60+ billion ad impressions a month.

"AI won't change the fact that audiences reward consistency, transparency and real commitment," she says. "What it will change is the signal-to-noise ratio. Purpose-driven communication that is truly lived out by a company will stand out even more because people will crave rare authenticity amidst a flood of optimized narratives."
Today, the Defense Department confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America, the Pentagon Press Association said. It did this because reporters would not sign onto a new media policy over its implicit threat of criminalizing national security reporting and exposing those who sign it to potential prosecution. The Pentagon Press Association's members are still committed to reporting on the U.S. military.
The £532,000 dot - a small change that sparked a big debate about design costs. GOV.UK - The UK government's digital service reportedly spent around £532,000 to move a dot in its logo. Spending over half a million nudging a few pixels is a lot to stomach. Several media outlets, including LBC, PublicTechnology, and DesignWeek, reported the figure. But so far, there's no public document or a contract breakdown to verify where the money went.
In particular, his Oct. 2 opinion piece targeted resellers and supply-side platforms accused of duplicating and obfuscating bid requests. Green argued that recent changes to the industry's Transaction ID, or "TID" (hurray for a new ad tech abbreviation), introduced by some resellers, undermine transparency and disadvantage premium publishers by making auctions less efficient. He framed the conflict as a battle between publishers seeking fair yield and resellers protecting inefficient margins.
First, this tax was conceived behind closed doors with no public discussion about whether it's needed. The tax was rolled out two days before the Board of Supervisors voted to put it on the ballot, which isn't enough time to let the public digest the pros and cons of the measure. Second, the county should have commissioned an outside independent audit to see if there's any fat in the government, and if so, how much can be cut. We're not talking about the typical annual audits which rubber-stamp normal spending, but an in-depth look by an outside accounting firm like Deloitte, PwC, Ernst & Young or KPMG.
The process of removing Corpus for hiring her alleged boyfriend and harassing her employees has been chaotic enough. While an overwhelming number of residents voted to support a ballot measure that gives the supervisors the power to fire Corpus, there has been discontent about the process the supervisors are using to remove her. Many think that a recall measure would have been a more transparent process, allowing the sheriff to make her case to the public, not the Board of Supervisors.
It's a nervy time to be a frontline worker in a call center or back-office hub. Startups are advertising 'AI employees' and the likes of venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz are talking of AI ' productizing and unbundling ' the business process outsourcing (BPO) sector that executes the core functions of corporations around the globe. No doubt customer service, HR, and IT workers in the industry are wondering how their employers will respond-and whether their livelihoods are at risk.
Is programmatic really broken-or just in need of a reset? In this episode of Inside the Stack, Yieldmo founder and CEO Mike Yavonditte joins AdExchanger head of communities Lynne d Johnson to unpack the misalignments between DSPs, agencies, and buyers that fuel inefficiency across the chain. He makes the case for "radical control and radical transparency," giving advertisers page-level insight before they place a bid.
The multi-million dollar effort to remove public access to police radio communications across the East Bay has a new start date, roughly a month after similar plans were undone by a technology snafu. Every law enforcement agency in Contra Costa County including all police departments and the county's sheriff's office will end public access to their radio chatter on Oct. 7, said David Swing, head of the East Bay Regional Communications System Authority. Nearly every such agency in Alameda County plans to follow suit on Oct. 9, he said. The only holdout appears to be the Berkeley Police Department, which vowed last month to keep their conversations public.
The platform addresses gaps that often leave agents and buyers without key information such as whether offers exist, which deadlines apply or what it takes to secure a property. Consumers expect real-time transparency in every other part of their lives. Why should buying or selling a home be any different? said Chad Ochsner, broker/owner of RE/MAX Alliance. We're proud to bring this level of clarity and confidence to Colorado.
The register is designed to shine a light on which companies are being paid to represent foreign states in the UK. It launched on Wednesday with three companies having their names published in public with firms allowed to ask for opt-outs from the open register if it could prejudice commercial interests or present a risk to safety. Government sources said more registrations were still being assessed and there was a pipeline due to be published.
In her first "State of Our Schools" address Monday, Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos gave an overview of how the Education Department is meeting families' needs and announced a new accountability tool that breaks down a variety of education initiatives, from the expansion of the NYC Reads curriculum mandate to chronic absenteeism rates per district. The tool is divided into family engagement, teacher support, and student well-being, tracking 37 topics ranging from staff hiring updates and expanding autism programs to increasing voter turnout for the local Community Education Council elections.
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill Monday that will create new transparency measures for large AI companies, including public disclosure of security protocols and reports of critical safety incidents. Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) said Senate Bill 53 will create "commonsense guardrails" to ensure groundbreaking innovations don't sacrifice safety and transparency amid the rapid growth of AI technologies.
In a rural corner of Louisiana, Meta is building one of the world's largest data centers, a $10 billion behemoth as big as 70 football fields that will consume more power in a day than the entire city of New Orleans at the peak of summer. While the colossal project is impossible to miss in Richland Parish, a farming community of 20,000 residents, not everything is visible, including how much the social media giant will pay toward the more than $3 billion in new electricity infrastructure needed to power the facility.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has said the officer was seriously injured by Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, who allegedly tried to evade arrest after agents pulled over his car in Franklin Park. Nearly three hours of video and audio clips obtained by the Associated Press through a Freedom of Information Act request shed new light on the shooting that has escalated tensions amid a federal immigration crackdown in the country's third-largest city.

From its cultural landmarks like Lincoln Center to its leafy brownstone blocks and proximity to Central Park, the Upper West Side blends creativity, intellect, and sophistication. It's also a neighborhood where wellness, authenticity, and quality matter deeply. That's why, as cannabis legalization grows across New York, Upper West Side consumers are seeking top shelf weed that reflects their values-potent, clean, and crafted with care.
For some people, there's value in having clear boundaries between work and family. But I believe that integrating my personal and professional lives was the best way to grow this business. Ultimately, I was doing this for my daughter and other kids, and I knew the best business would be born from melding my family and business.
"It's troubling to see the erosion of the committee's integrity," said Dr. Sandra Fryhofer, who spoke on behalf of the American Medical Association on Friday, "We're concerned about how vaccine recommendations are being developed by this new panel, data is being selectively used to justify specific conclusions."
Usually, you can find comparison tools a little hard to use, especially within the finance sector. Fortunately, there are some services out there that understand that not everyone is a seasoned professional. The Investors Centre is one such service, with an emphasis on helping people use online financial brokers with confidence and peace of mind. With over 15 years of service and 10,000+ monthly investors, it seems that TIC is doing something right with their online tools.
Earlier this week, President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social that companies should only have to report earnings twice a year-versus every quarter. " This will save money, and allow managers to focus on properly running their companies," he wrote. "Did you ever hear the statement that, 'China has a 50 to 100 year view on management of a company, whereas we run our companies on a quarterly basis???' Not good!!!"
The Department of Health and Social Sare (DHSC) was glowing in its description of the league tables by which all of England's 205 NHS trusts are now being judged: a landmark moment, a pioneering new system and a new era of transparency. Wes Streeting, the health secretary, said that sunlight is the best disinfectant in his zeal to expose, and drive out, poor care.
