FCC Chairman Brendan Carr questions if the league should retain its special antitrust exemption, initially established by the 1961 Sports Broadcasting Act. Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley suggests Congress examine the NFL's monopoly structure, highlighting their $25 billion annual revenue and rising fan costs. The recent pushback against the NFL funneling games to streaming carriers includes federal oversight of the matter, but that isn't stopping the league from doing more -- at least not if a new deal with Netflix to stream the first game ever played in Australia is a measure. The NFL and Netflix have an agreement in place to televise the San Francisco 49ers versus the Los Angeles Rams on Sept. 10, according to The Athletic.

Canadian officials claim OpenAI violated federal and provincial privacy laws

Engadget

Philippe Dufresne, the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, has found OpenAI was not compliant with Canadian federal and provincial privacy laws in the training of its AI models. Following an investigation, Dufresne and his counterparts in Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia say OpenAI's approach to things like data collection and consent stepped on multiple laws, including Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which governs how companies collect and use personal information during the normal course of business. The commissioners participating in the investigation identified multiple privacy issues with OpenAI's approach, including that the company gathered vast amounts of personal information without adequate safeguards to prevent use of that information to train its models, and that it failed to acquire consent to collect and use that personal information in the first place. Warnings in ChatGPT note that interactions with the AI could be used in training, but third-party data OpenAI has purchased or scraped also includes personal details people likely aren't even aware of. The fact that ChatGPT users have no way to access, correct or delete that data was another issue that the commissioners identified, according to a summary of the investigation's findings, along with OpenAI's lackluster attempts to acknowledge the inaccuracy of some of ChatGPT's responses.

The Guardian

The new'AI-powered' healthcare system appears to penalise the poorest. The new'AI-powered' healthcare system appears to penalise the poorest. An AI system used to predict how much Kenyans can afford to pay for access to healthcare, has systemically driven up costs for the poor, an investigation has found. The healthcare system being rolled out across the country, a key electoral promise of President William Ruto, was launched in October 2024 and intended to replace Kenya's decades-old national insurance system. Billed as " accelerating digital transformation ", it aimed to expand access to care to Kenya's large informal economy: the day labourers, hawkers, farmers and non-salaried workers that make up 83% of its workforce.

Sam Altman's ChatGPT Couldn't Stop Obsessing Over Goblins

Mother Jones

OpenAI desires less regulation, but it still doesn't know how its chatbot works. Get your news from a source that's not owned and controlled by oligarchs. OpenAI admitted it had to develop a specific instruction in the code of its latest model of ChatGPT to stop it from repeatedly referencing "goblins, gremlins, and other creatures." In an explanation posted Wednesday, the company said the "strange habit" came from its chatbot personality feature --specifically for users who chose the "Nerdy" personality. You are an unapologetically nerdy, playful and wise AI mentor to a human.


ChatGPT developed a goblin obsession after OpenAI tried to make it nerdy

Engadget

Following the release of GPT-5.5 last week, people noticed something funny about OpenAI's latest model. In its Codex coding app, the company left a system prompt instructing GPT 5.5 to avoid mention of goblins, gremlins and other creatures. Yes, you read that right. Never talk about goblins, gremlins, racoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other animals or creatures unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant to the user's query, the prompt reads. Apparently, enough people started talking about ChatGPT's creature obsession that OpenAI felt the need to provide an accounting of where the goblins came from .


Meta in row after sacking workers who say they saw smart glasses users having sex

BBC News

Meta is under pressure to explain why it cancelled a major contract with a company it was using to train AI, shortly after some of its Kenya-based workers alleged they had to view graphic content captured by Meta smart glasses. In February, workers at the company, Sama, told two Swedish newspapers they had witnessed glasses users going to the toilet and having sex . Less than two months later, Meta ended its contract with Sama, which Sama said would result in 1,108 workers being made redundant. Meta says it's because Sama did not meet its standards, a criticism Sama rejects. A Kenyan workers' organisation alleges Meta's decision was caused by the staff speaking out.
