“If we can’t boldly say the ability to create nonconsensual sexual imagery and child sexual-abuse material need to be fully and permanently irradiated from xAI’s products, we are truly lost.”

Andrew Goldberg, the new executive director of Ballet Memphis, has more ticket stubs to Michael Jordan games than anyone in the world.

“Memphis is still with you. But now we’re asking you to be fully with us too. We don’t need a superhero. We just need Ja Morant. Present, accountable, and all in.”

“The debate unfolding in Southaven over xAI’s data center and its gas turbines reflects a familiar clash playing out across the country.”

“Standing near the end of a long life exposes us to how little we truly know about another person’s inner journey, even someone we loved, even someone who shaped us.”

The FTC complaint says the defendants took in millions of dollars impersonating other clinics. It alleges that as a result of these deceptive tactics, many consumers were deterred from seeking admission at the clinics they were actually trying to contact.
