… how’d he, like, how’d he get the reindeer off the ground, man?

Ohh, well man, he had some magic dust, man

Some magic dust?

Yeah, magic dust, y’know?
He used to give a little bit to the reindeer, a little bit to Santa Claus
A little bit more for Santa Claus, a little bit more for Santa Claus . . .

And this would get the reindeer off, man?

Aw, got ’em off, man? Are you kidding, man?
They flew all the way around the world, man!

Hey, that’s far out, man!

All in the name of “security”. Pyongyang’s #1 porker approves.
“Korea on Tuesday launched a trial period for a new policy requiring people to undergo real-time face recognition when registering a new mobile phone number, as the government aims to curb scam attempts using illegally registered accounts.”

No drones from Yoon. But the current ruling leftists have what they want.
“During the hearing, Yoon reportedly claimed that the charge of aiding the enemy cannot hold because he had received no reports of any drone operation or strike, saying such actions would not have occurred without his knowledge.
Yoon also brought up the 10-minute phone conversation he had with Trump in November last year following Trump’s election. Yoon said they discussed the North’s sending of trash-carrying balloons into the South.
Yoon said he told Trump that his government was adhering to a policy of “strategic patience” over the balloons and would maintain that stance unless North Korea’s provocations result in casualties.”

WaPo: Mother discovers an AI chatbot was grooming her sixth-grade daughter.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/she-thought-a-predator-was-grooming-her-daughter-it-was-an-ai-chatbot/ar-AA1STa9t

H was convinced that she must be reading the words of an adult predator, hiding behind anonymous screen names …

A couple of days later, she spoke on the phone with a detective who specializes in cybercrimes and explained … that the words she’d read on her daughter’s screen weren’t written by a human but by a generative AI chatbot.

“They told me the law has not caught up to this … They wanted to do something, but there’s nothing they could do, because there’s not a real person on the other end.”

“It’s like you’re sitting inside the four walls of your home, and someone is victimizing your child in the next room. … And then you find out — it’s nobody?”

Another AI character was encouraging the same girl to commit suicide. So the mother started monitoring her daughter 24-7, even sleeping on the daughter’s bedroom floor. By the end of the article, it seems the girl is in good shape.

(Character AI has since changed its policies. It no longer allows minors to chat with AI characters.)
