Man released on bail after 41 years on death row in US
A man who spent 41 years on death row in the US after being convicted of killing a woman has been released on bail after prosecutors said newly analysed DNA evidence did not link him to the crime. Douglas Stewart Carter, who is now 71, was jailed for the killing of Eva Olesen in Utah in 1985. He was sentenced to death but always maintained his innocence, stating that a signed confession was coerced. The state Supreme Court ordered a new trial last year, citing misconduct by investigators, and a judge bailed Carter on Monday despite objections from the victim's family. He is required to wear a GPS monitor while on bail.
Jaxson Dart and Abdul Carter hug out differences, but neither apologizes over Trump dispute
Umpire Dan Bellino's baffling foul tip call on Seiya Suzuki renews calls for robot review in MLB Dakich: sports media has created an'industry' out of complaining about white athletes like Caitlin Clark Greg Sankey insists SEC is'strongest league' despite Big Ten winning three straight national championships Phillies look to upset Dodgers behind Zack Wheeler as Philadelphia's turnaround continues in LA Joey McGuire calls Steve Sarkisian's bluff, dares Texas to play Texas Tech in Week 1 Rams troublemaker WR Puka Nacua says he's a changed man after biting incident and stint in rehab Chiefs have no plans to release Rashee Rice and see jail time as a'life lesson' opportunity Diamondbacks fans catch same player's home run on back-to-back nights after showing up on the wrong date Father Mike Schmitz: Pope Leo XIV wants this world view in line with humanity's good Pompeo warns Iran will rebuild nuclear facilities'the moment' it gets the chance Purple Heart recipient speaks out after Graham Platner's controversial remarks'Chipotle Karen' caught hurling burrito bowl at worker's face Jaxson Dart spoke to reporters about his well-chronicled introduction of President Donald Trump at a rally last week and after he was done, it was Abdul Carter's turn to make his way to the microphone. As the two New York Giants teammates passed each other, they embraced. The Giants want the world to know there is no beef inside their locker room in general, or between the two players in particular despite the fact the starting quarterback supports Trump and the blossoming defensive lineman has an obvious distaste for the president. But there's a catch amid all this understanding: While these two guys may not dislike each other, they do not agree. Giants linebacker Abdul Quarter says there is no beef between him and quarterback Jaxson Dart after he made an appearance at an event featuring President Donald Trump.

Why the AI Industry Is Betting on a Fusion Energy Breakthrough
Booth is a reporter at TIME. Booth is a reporter at TIME. When Sam Altman arrived at Helion Energy's small Redmond, Wash., office in early 2014, nuclear-fusion textbooks tucked under his arm, the company was focusing its efforts on research and development. By the time he left, several days later, he had persuaded the fusion-energy startup to chart a more aggressive path toward deployment, CEO David Kirtley recalls. A year later, Altman, who was co-founding OpenAI around the same time, invested $9.5 million in Helion, taking the role of chairman.
It's the End of the World (And It's Their Fault)
It's late morning on a Monday in March and I am, for reasons I will explain momentarily, in a private bowling alley deep in the bowels of a 65 million mansion in Utah. Jesse Armstrong, the showrunner of HBO's hit series Succession, approaches me, monitor headphones around his neck and a wide grin on his face. "I take it you've seen the news," he says, flashing his phone and what appears to be his X feed in my direction. Everyone had: An hour earlier, my boss Jeffrey Goldberg had published a story revealing that U.S. national-security leaders had accidentally added him to a Signal group chat where they discussed their plans to conduct then-upcoming military strikes in Yemen. "Incredibly fucking depressing," Armstrong said.
Wikipedia is struggling with voracious AI bot crawlers
Wikimedia has seen a 50 percent increase in bandwidth used for downloading multimedia content since January 2024, the foundation said in an update. But it's not because human readers have suddenly developed a voracious appetite for consuming Wikipedia articles and for watching videos or downloading files from Wikimedia Commons. No, the spike in usage came from AI crawlers, or automated programs scraping Wikimedia's openly licensed images, videos, articles and other files to train generative artificial intelligence models. This sudden increase in traffic from bots could slow down access to Wikimedia's pages and assets, especially during high-interest events. When Jimmy Carter died in December, for instance, people's heightened interest in the video of his presidential debate with Ronald Reagan caused slow page load times for some users.
Pharmacist GOP Rep Carter urges Biden to take cognitive test in letter to White House: 'Fragile mental state'
Dr. Ronny Jackson joins'Sunday Morning Futures' to discuss his five letters asking President Biden to submit to a cognitive test and his next letter addressed to Biden's physician and the Cabinet. EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Earl "Buddy" Carter, R-Ga., wrote a letter to the White House on Monday calling on President Biden to take a cognitive assessment over concerns about his "fragile mental state" and ability to uphold his duties. In a letter obtained exclusively by Fox News Digital, Carter, who is also a pharmacist, wrote to White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients expressing "serious concern" with Biden's cognitive state and "ability to execute the duties of the Presidency." "After numerous examples of the President's declining mental acuity, it is imperative that the White House remains transparent about the President of the United States' honest ability to uphold the duties of the office to which he swore an oath," Carter wrote. This comes after a recent report from The Wall Street Journal stating that the 81-year-old president was showing signs of poor cognitive performance in private meetings with congressional lawmakers, including by closing his eyes for extended periods, speaking so softly at times that people struggled to hear him and forgetting details about his own energy policy.
BBC presenter's likeness used in advert after firm tricked by AI-generated voice
There was something strange about her voice, they thought. It was not unfamiliar but, after a while, it started to go all over the place. Science presenter Liz Bonnin's accent, as regular BBC viewers know, is Irish. But this voice message, ostensibly granting permission to use her likeness in an ad campaign, seemed to place her on the other side of the world. The message, it turns out, was a fake – AI-generated to mimic Bonnin's voice.
