Mistral's New Ultra-Fast Translation Model Gives Big AI Labs a Run for Their Money
Mistral's New Ultra-Fast Translation Model Gives Big AI Labs a Run for Their Money "Too many GPUs makes you lazy," says the French startup's vice president of science operations, as the company carves out a different path than the major US AI companies. Mistral AI has released a new family of AI models that it claims will clear the path to seamless conversation between people speaking different languages . On Wednesday, the Paris-based AI lab released two new speech-to-text models: Voxtral Mini Transcribe V2 and Voxtral Realtime. The former is built to transcribe audio files in large batches and the latter for nearly real-time transcription, within 200 milliseconds; both can translate between 13 languages. Voxtral Realtime is freely available under an open source license.

Trump Doesn't Need the Proud Boys Anymore
In a world where ICE agents are shooting US citizens on the street, the need for militias and extremist groups like the Proud Boys to support far-right interests has evaporated. Whether it was protesting Covid lockdowns, attending school board meetings, or facing off against Black Lives Matter protesters, the far-right Proud Boys were always on hand to support Donald Trump's first term in office. When Trump left office in 2021, the group's leaders languished in jail for their role in the January 6 attack on the Capitol. With reported infighting destabilizing the movement, it looked like the group's glory days were behind it. But Trump's return a year ago, and his release of all January 6 prisoners, signaled that a Proud Boy comeback could be in the cards.

Right-Wing Influencers Have Flooded Minneapolis
Clips from creators in Minnesota have become primary evidence in attempts from the right-wing to justify ICE's surge on American cities. In the days since a masked federal agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, right-wing creators and influencers like Nick Sortor and Cam Higby have descended on Minneapolis, filming protestors and interviewing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. So far, they've produced a steady stream of content that appears designed to paint Minneapolis as a lawless city, and the actions of ICE agents like Jonathan Ross, who reportedly shot and killed Good, as self-defense. "HELL YES! ICE just SMASHED a leftist activist's car window in and pulled them out after they interfered in ICE's operations in Minneapolis. MORE OF THIS!" Sortor posted to X on Sunday, "Consequences must be STEEP!"

Both of these influencers are successful - but only one is human
In some ways, Gigi is like any other young social media influencer. With perfect hair and makeup, she logs on and talks to her fans. She shares clips: eating, doing skin care, putting on lipstick. She even has a cute baby who appears in some videos. But after a few seconds, something may seem a little off.

Politics Is Fandom; Fascism Is Fanfic
From Zohran Mamdani's campaign to the US government's memes, fandom has become the defining language of US politics. Zohran Mamdani never auditioned for, but one of his campaign's final television ads placed him in the middle of the show's infamous Tribal Council. For roughly 30 seconds, a handful of former contestants addressed the camera while explaining their decisions to vote Mamdani's top opponent, Andrew Cuomo, off the "island" of Manhattan. "Didn't we already vote you out?" asks one former contestant. The spot is just one of a handful of fandom-influenced ads that Mamdani's campaign put out in the final weeks of the New York City mayoral race .

The Most Powerful Politics Influencers Barely Post About Politics
New research shows that social media creators have enormous influence over their audiences' politics--especially those who don't normally share political content. Donald Trump's appearances on the podcasts of Joe Rogan and Theo Von, among others, were seen by many as a key part of securing his second term in office. But while Trump was speculating about alien life on Mars with Rogan, he had a team of acolytes appearing on dozens, if not hundreds, of much smaller niche podcasts hosted by right-wing content creators who typically don't talk about politics. This is how, just six days before the election, Kash Patel, the man now struggling to run the FBI, ended up appearing on the livestream, a fringe, QAnon-infused show hosted on a platform called Pilled. "The Deep State exists," Patel told the audience.

It's time to lock in and let your winter arc begin
It's time to lock in and let your winter arc begin Have you ever locked in? No, not finding yourself locked in a lift or a bathroom. We're talking about locking IN - the phrase you might have seen on social media or heard people saying lately. To lock in is to focus; to endure short-term pain for long-term gain - whether that be building your body or your business. Do it today - not tomorrow.

No, your favourite influencer hasn't got a dozen dachshund dogs. It's just AI
No, your favourite influencer hasn't got a dozen dachshund dogs. When scrolling through social media recently, you might have noticed posts which seem a bit off. It's all AI generated and due to its low quality and its inauthenticity, it's being branded AI slop. Both social media users and content creators say they're worried that AI slop flooding feeds is leading to a less authentic online experience - and is drowning out real posts. But a new trend, which sees people adding AI-generated animals to original photographs, has encouraged some content creators to embrace AI.
