At schools across several states, boys have created and circulated nude deepfake images of their female classmates, according to The Times. This kind of broad public education would hopefully cause people to think twice about engaging with nude deepfakes at all through things like clicks, likes and shares. Watermarks on AI content can be easily removed, so it’s also important to prohibit the removal of such tags. Americans need to wake up to an important fact: Nude deepfakes destroy women’s lives. Our society needs to take this new form of violence against women and girls seriously.

Ben Sasse told The New York Times that professors shouldn't feel stifled by a new Florida law. "You want to actually be teaching debates that allow people to get inside texts and wrestle," he said. Sasse, a former Nebraska senator, took over the reigns of the University of Florida earlier this year. In July, SB 266, which mandates that professors cannot "distort" historical events, became Florida law. "There's nothing that's going to keep a University of Florida professor from teaching that," he told the newspaper.

The US began ramping up ammunition production last year when it became clear that the war would drag on far longer than anticipated. But the ammunition will still take “years” to mass produce to acceptable levels, National Security adviser Jake Sullivan told CNN Sunday. Ukrainian troops now typically fire between 2,000 and 3,000 artillery shells per day at Russian forces, a US defense official told CNN. It was necessary, though, because of how low US stockpiles are, Sullivan told CNN Sunday. “All of us have had to struggle stimulating our supply chains, some of which went to sleep,” he told CNN.
