My name is Ahmed Moor and I’m running for US Senate here in PA (election 2028). I’m running to end the war in Iran and to promote the dignity agenda: free healthcare, free childcare, and affordable housing.

I’m calling for accountability for genocide, for ICE and for corruption. And finally, for the protection of our civil liberties in America. Join the fight at moorforsenate.com

@TheFP general manager’s response to their reporter getting busted using ChatGPT/AI to edit a photo is…strange.

Why is using AI to brighten a photo different than brightening a photo via your camera app or photoshop?: Using certain AI tools to edit photos creates an entirely new image to the point that it can create artifacts in the image that alter it fundamentally not just superficially like photo editing (see the Valentino shoe w all those holes? That didn’t exist in original).

Why is this a problem? Bc you can’t tell what the AI was used to do..was it used to brighten or used to swap *in* that Chanel bag? It puts us in the upside down.

@Olivia_Reingold please share the unedited, original image or confirm that what you shared is unedited.

Also pro-tip for journalists : don't use AI to alter images that you are pointing to as "data points" in your field reporting.

Hello my name is Olivia Reingold and I used ChatGPT to brighten and sharpen an image of a woman in Valentino shoes and a Chanel bag.

After processing, it still shows these same things: a woman wearing Valentino shoes and a Chanel bag.

She is a real (and chic!) woman, really wearing those items. The observation holds.

Here’s the photo I took:

This is a stunning upset for so many reasons.

Members of UofM Board of Regents are typically from the state’s richest families and biggest party donors.

Amir not only unseated a regent in the primary who went after pro-Palestinian student protestors hard but now the lawyer who represented these students sits on the board of a major university. That’s a first.

Dearborn attorney Amir Makled, who represented pro-Palestinian protesters at the University of Michigan after they were charged, was elected to the board of the university.
