They are unhappy about it, but here’s what they get wrong. Last month, Ford announced that it will integrate NACS, Tesla’s charge connector that it open-sourced last year in an attempt to make it the North American charging standard, into its future electric vehicles.

The post in question consisted of screenshots from a Vogue article calling for Yeoh’s win on Sunday, while…

Vanderbilt University's Peabody College is facing growing anger after administrators used ChatGPT to write a message about the importance of community following a deadly campus shooting in Michigan. The Nashville, Tennessee-based school's Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion said in a Feb. 16 email that “creating a safe and inclusive environment is an ongoing process that requires ongoing effort and commitment.” A line at the bottom of the five-paragraph email said it had been paraphrased using…
