How Much of Data-Center Activism Is Really AI Slop? Anti-AI sentiment is genuine, but its online expression looks stranger and stranger. Americans are wary of AI in general, and they are especially suspicious of the AI data centers that are popping up across the country like enormous mushrooms. A majority do not want a new data center built in their town. Across the country, community groups have organized to protest individual projects, and activists have successfully lobbied local and state politicians to place moratoriums on the facilities' construction.

I am attempting to solve a mathematical conundrum that has stumped many of humanity's greatest thinkers. I have zero mathematical training, apart from a distant undergraduate physics degree, which should put my odds of success at slim to none. But I also have a trick up my sleeve - a kind of mathematical genie that can conjure arcane secrets seemingly out of thin air. I make a short request concerning an esoteric conjecture in number theory, then cross my fingers. Perhaps "genie" is a bit too strong - I'm simply using GPT 5.5 Pro, the latest iteration of OpenAI's flagship model. But for mathematicians, modern AI models appear to have a spark of magic.

Alan Turing proposed a test for machine intelligence: could a computer convince a human it was human? Recently, a friend told me over coffee about some disheartening feedback she had received. "They said it was good," she said, "but that it read like it was written by AI." Knowing her, I understood immediately what had happened. Her credibility was being questioned not because her work was poor, but because it was too good - too clear, too fluent, too polished. The rapid acceleration of artificial intelligence tools is changing how we think about good writing.

Fraud detection in payment networks relies on labels generated through heterogeneous and imperfect observation processes, yet existing approaches treat fraud as a homogeneous binary variable. We show that this assumption is structurally incorrect and leads to provable inefficiency. We introduce an observation-mechanism taxonomy that partitions fraud into five classes, each defined by a distinct censorship and labeling pipeline. We prove that estimating fraud rates separately by class and aggregating strictly dominates pooled estimation, with the efficiency gap characterized as a Jensen penalty arising from heterogeneous observation rates. For each class, we derive the binding theoretical constraint on detection, including endogenous label corruption, structural non-observability, and feature non-informativeness. These results establish that fraud detection is fundamentally a collection of distinct estimation problems, each governed by its own observation structure and detection limit.

Two lawmakers in the United States Congress are pushing to repeal a section in an upcoming defence budget that would deepen integration between the US and Israeli militaries. Their effort comes amid outcry against the latest draft of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a bill that sets the budget for the US military. On Sunday, Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna said he would use his seat on the House Armed Services Committee to put forward an amendment to remove Section 224 from the bill. His Republican colleague Thomas Massie also warned that, if the bill is approved by the committee, he would work to oppose it on the floor of the House of Representatives. He framed the issue as a question of US independence from foreign governments.

Why Iran won't give up Hormuz Could Israel sabotage US-Iran deal? Lawmakers in the United States are quietly advancing a proposal that could deepen military ties between the US and Israel in unprecedented ways, at a time when public support for Israel among Americans is increasingly fractured. Among the provisions included in the 2027 National Defence Authorisation Act (NDAA) released this week is Section 224, the "United States-Israel Defence Technology Cooperation Initiative". Some legislators have already signalled opposition, with Representative Thomas Massie saying he would seek to remove the provision if it reaches the House floor. The measure remains at an early stage, but analysts say if passed, it would limit political oversight over the defence relationship.

Bryson DeChambeau may have finished third in LIV Golf's latest event in South Korea, but that doesn't mean he's pleased with his game. DeChambeau, who won back-to-back LIV events in March, found himself one shot back of the lead after the opening two rounds in South Korea, but put together a disappointing third round at 1-over par. As is often the case for DeChambeau after what he deems to be a lackluster performance, it turned into a long night on the driving range searching for something.
