Their Master's Voice

Trump Media & Technology Group has unveiled a paid-for, licensed data feed that will give banks ​and trading firms "the fastest" access to posts from influential Truth Social ‌accounts, such as President Donald Trump's, whose posts often move global markets.

The product, called 'Truth API', will deliver posts from the 10 most influential accounts to customers at a significantly ​faster pace than a regular push notification on the Truth Social ​platform, a spokesperson said.

The feed is designed for organizations "most impacted by ⁠the cost of a delay in information", such as algorithmic trading firms, ​the company said in a statement. "Until now... firms that prioritize tracking influential Truth ​posts have relied on manual monitoring. Truth API closes the gap."

Happy Payout Day!

...to those who celebrate.

The writer E. Jean Carroll can collect $5.8 million held in escrow since a jury found that President Donald Trump sexually abused and defamed her, a federal judge ruled Wednesday. Trump’s lawyers immediately appealed but were denied an emergency order to block the payment from being made.

Trump deposited the money in an account shortly after a jury ruled against him in 2023. The U.S. Supreme Court recently let the civil verdict stand, clearing the way for Judge Lewis A. Kaplan to release the money. The initial $5 million award has grown with interest.

How Accurate Are AI Astrology Predictions?

The layers of WTF here are so deep.

Is ChatGPT astrology real or fake? ChatGPT astrology isn’t real astrology. It generates horoscope-style text based on patterns and language, not planetary positions or astronomical calculations. Think of it as entertainment or creative writing, not a predictive or scientific tool.

Right... and can you think of anything else that is not actually predictive?

How to find exact future predictions free by date of birth? There is no reliable way to get exact future predictions for free using a date of birth. Astrology and numerology tools can offer general insights based on patterns, but they are not scientifically proven.

But if "scientifically proven" is important... ?

But without emotional intelligence or spiritual understanding, AI astrology lacks the full depth of traditional readings. It may sound precise, yet often misses the subtle connections a human astrologer can make. AI astrology works best as a starting point for self-reflection rather than a final answer. So, what do you think; How Accurate Are AI Astrology Predictions for you?

Huh.

And the whole, very-repetitive, list-heavy, article looks like it was written by ChatGPT.

No Free Money For You, Elon

SpaceX has requested unusually swift entry into several leading stock market indexes as a condition of its historic stock market debut. But the S&P 500 stock market index representing many of the largest profitable US companies has surprised market analysts by refusing to bend the rules for Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

The June 4 decision by S&P Dow Jones Indices—the company that creates and manages stock market indexes such as the S&P 500—means that SpaceX will not gain accelerated access to potentially billions more dollars through passive investment funds that automatically purchase shares of S&P 500 companies. Modifying the rules in response to SpaceX’s request could have also allowed leading AI companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic to gain entry not long after their own expected initial public offerings (IPOs). That possibility has now been shuttered.

The news will likely come as a relief to people concerned about passive investor money and people’s retirement savings plans having greater exposure to the market risks associated with SpaceX’s big bet on AI and speculative orbital data center plans. AI companies are generally facing more challenges in funding and building expensive AI data centers, even as they shift more of the subsidized costs of running AI services onto shocked customers through usage-based pricing.

Shocked customers indeed.

For the past year, my employer has been telling us to use more and more and more AI in our work, and into our products. We've renamed products to include "AI". But when OpenAI raised their prices, management sent us an email saying we need to tighten our belts and reduce our AI usage, and that we now have per-user caps on how much we can use. The honeymoon is over.
