CNN —Mexico ended a seven-match winless run against bitter rival the United States, winning 2-0 in front of a raucous home crowd at Akron Stadium in Guadalajara. The defeat is Mauricio Pochettino’s first as US men’s national team head coach in only his second game in charge, but the former Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham manager was missing a number of key players.

ChatGPT users are asking the AI to reveal any personal traits it's gleaned from their past conversations. The ChatGPT responses posted by people online revealed long, detailed analyses that pointed out traits from users' "thoughtful approach to conversations" or ability to "blend curiosity with analysis." AdvertisementSome ChatGPT users suggested follow-up questions for the AI that might result in a less complimentary response. One person on X suggested asking ChatGPT to give them "the real talk," and another on Reddit, for a similar prompt, suggested telling the bot to "play devil's advocate." The viral prompt suggests that many people are getting comfortable talking to AI and asking it personal questions.

Plus, "Meet the Press" moderator breaks down the polling numbers behind Barack Obama's stern message to Black voters. Former President Barack Obama came to Pittsburgh on Thursday with a stark warning for Black men to step up their support for Harris. The survey found that men under the age of 50 were the most likely subgroup of Black voters to back Trump over Harris. While Harris had a 78-point lead among Black men over 50, the number drops to about 50 points with Black men under 50. Bottom line: This is the first time we have heard this powerful and direct plea from the nation’s first Black president to other Black men.

To win, Tester will need even more Montanans willing to vote for a Republican for president and a Democrat for the Senate. “Look, I’ve got my own brand here in the state, and it’s different than national Democrats,” he said in an interview. In the Butte union hall, Tester touted his work to make sure billions of dollars for infrastructure projects appropriated in 2022 would create union jobs. The mostly male group packing the hall, many of whose members Tester concedes will vote for Trump, cheered loudly.

Internal research accidentally revealed this week indicates TikTok knew its algorithm was harmful. Lawyers for children harmed by social media say the apps have long known they are hurting kids. According to NPR, TikTok's internal documents show officials at parent company ByteDance discussing internal studies that show the app can harm children. According to NPR, the unredacted internal documents show that TikTok touted its tools for limiting teens' screen time despite knowing from its own research that these features had "little impact." Matthew Bergman, a founding attorney of the Social Media Victims Law Center, which represents over 3,000 plaintiffs in cases of adolescents harmed by social media, told BI that the unsealed information is "certainly consistent with what we're seeing" across TikTok and other social media.

CNN —The drownings of two Navy SEALs during a maritime intercept off the coast of Somalia were preventable, caused by a lack of proper training and unclear guidance on effective flotation, a Navy investigation found. Loaded with gear for the intercept mission, the two Navy SEALs went under in less than a minute. “The entire tragic event elapsed in just forty-seven (47) seconds, and two [Naval Special Warfare] officers were lost to the sea,” the investigation found. Naval Special Warfare SEAL Team Three deployed on board the USS Lewis B. Puller in December 2023. The Navy highlights the need for “positive buoyancy” – the ability to stay afloat – for boarding team members.

The special counsel alleged that Trump told family members, “It doesn’t matter if you won or lost the election. As well as the federal election case, the ex-president is facing a similar one in Georgia based on racketeering statutes. The former president refused to accept the result of the 2020 election that he lost.
