As reported by the Harvard Crimson student newspaper, reflecting on the present challenges to institutions around accusations of intolerance and hostility to free debate, Garber came down firmly on the side of not debating (bold is mine): "I'm pleased to say that I think there is real movement to restore balance in teaching and to bring back the idea that you need to be objective in the classroom."

The resolution, known as the Creator Bill of Rights, expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that creators and digital workers represent "a distinct and growing class of small businesses and independent economic contributors" who deserve fair treatment, transparency, and economic opportunity in a platform-driven economy.

One of the central figures was Michael Burry, a former medical doctor turned hedge fund manager who did something few others did: He read the underlying loan data. What he found wasn't hidden at all.

The online encyclopedia now holds more than seven million articles and has become a standard guide for anyone seeking information.

External marketing speaks to the public. It's aimed at customers, both current and potential. Internal marketing, however, is meant for employees. The two audiences may overlap in some aspects - age, location, income level - but remain distinct groups with a different relationship to the company. As noted earlier, the goal of external marketing is to generate more revenue for the business, whether that's through more sales or subscriptions.

Frustrated families are being left in the dark about how Boston's leaders are deciding which schools need to close, councilors said. The Boston City Council voted unanimously Wednesday to call for more transparency from the Wu administration and Boston Public Schools regarding ongoing efforts to close schools and consolidate the BPS system.

Most games that disclose using generative AI on Steam don't go into much detail. Let it Die: Inferno was different. "AI-generated content has been used and then edited by our team for certain parts of the in-game voices, music, and graphics," it wrote.
