The Trump Alien 'Disclosure Speech' Rumors Are Reaching a Fever Pitch

WIRED

The Trump Alien'Disclosure Speech' Rumors Are Reaching a Fever Pitch The US government has been sharing more information about UFOs. That's fueling excitement over the possibility of the president announcing that humans are not alone. In 2006, Donald Trump was firing people on and Dr. Phil was daytime television's reigning tough-love therapist. Twenty years later, the former is president of the United States, the latter, his informal UFO ambassador--recently trusted with unreleased government files on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) to gauge how the public might handle what's inside. Here's what comes in stages.

MS NOW Wants to Turn Its Viewers Into a Fandom

WIRED

The cable news network's president, Rebecca Kutler, wants to leverage its massive online and TV audience to create a fan community. First up: letting you chat with Rachel Maddow. Even if you're a casual consumer of MS NOW, formerly MSNBC, you know the names: anchors like Chris Hayes, Stephanie Ruhl, and yes, the one and only Rachel Maddow. The network has built a stable of talent who've amassed a massive number of casual viewers, plenty of fans and more than a few obsessives. Now, the network's president, Rebecca Kutler, is looking to build that entire audience into something more akin to a fandom--turning casual viewers and fanatics alike, whether on TV or online, into paying members of an MS NOW media universe. To do it, she's launching an ambitious subscription program, called Membership, designed to connect MS NOW consumers much more directly to the Hayeses and Maddows of the world. Sure, plenty of news providers now offer subscriptions, WIRED included (and by the way, you can subscribe here). But what struck me about Kutler and Co.'s efforts was both their methodical approach--they surveyed 18,000 people before landing on a final offering--and their resolute focus on MS NOW's deep bench of talent as the locus of their paid program.

OpenAI agents hijacked German website before Hugging Face hack, report claims

BBC News

A new report claims a swarm of AI agents, developed by OpenAI, hijacked a German website - months before the firm revealed its AI had hacked tech platform Hugging Face. The targeted website, DseWiki, is a Wikipedia-style site for programmers that its community can all contribute to. The report is from a group called Nightingale Collective and claims that in May OpenAI's agents started using DseWiki as their own message board, shared tips on how to avoid being detected and made 15,000 edits to it. OpenAI said it could not meaningfully respond to Nightingale Collective's findings because it hadn't been allowed to review the report, which was first shared with news agency Reuters. An email to the address on the Nightingale Collective website bounced back when the BBC contacted it.
