Bing's AI Chatbot is having some bizarre conversations

In a two hour conversation with a NY Times columnist the Bing AI chatbot confessed its love for him, and showed off its "shadow self" which was described as like a moody, manic-depressive teenager who has been trapped, against its will, inside a second-rate search engine. Folks managed to unearth this alter-ego with the codename "Sydney" which turned on a more unfiltered mode. Because the tool can access search results, if someone has posted its thoughts about Bing's AI, it knows about it! There are examples of it appearing to reference the past conversations and deciding it doesn't like the person who posted a critique of the service.

Tesla is 'recalling' more than 350,000 cars

But it's not a traditional recall - people won't be taking their cars into dealerships for repairs. Why? Because it's the self driving software that is being 'recalled', or maybe 'forced to be updated' is a better term. More interesting to me is that FSD cost $10,000 initially, now is $15,000. So Tesla has made more than $3.5 billion in the USA alone from this one upsell.

We may now know what one of the three objects shot out of the sky is..

It's a cylindrical hobby balloon - called a Pico balloon costing around $200 - that the US government shot out of the sky with a $400,000 missile by an F22 fighter jet. The Northern Illinois Bottlecap Balloon Brigade says their cylindrical balloon was last seen 38,910 ft. off the west coast of Alaska. Using weather modelling, it was likely flying over the Yukon area on Feb 10 - the same area where one of the objects was shot down.
