This looks like an interesting take on the whole “AI" (IMHO its not AI and its not leading directly to AGI).
I've only watched this preview but it looks like it covers things from many points of view. The creator of the film

WELKER: You voted to hold Bill and Hillary Clinton in criminal contempt earlier this year for failing to comply with subpoena.
Why shouldn't the same standard apply to the former AG Pam Bondi?

But it also looks like Hungary has hope. Any cracks in that kind of concentration of power are good news. Big news.
Difficult days and difficult years ahead, yes — but days with promise, days following on what’s shaping up to be an incredible victory.
Rebecca Solnit says “Hope is not happiness or confidence or inner peace; it’s a commitment to search for possibilities.” So: here’s hoping!

The new emojis are out - at least the ones Apple includes in the next iOS update:
Distorted Face, Fight Cloud, Hairy Creature, Ballet Dancer, Orca, Landslide, Trombone, Treasure Chest
Another emoji originally was on the list for Unicode 17, then postponed to 18, and in October 25, it was removed from the draft. Probably because a certain company in the consortium took offense to it.

By their very nature they will never and can never experience happiness.
They’re sad sacks of miserable shit who always want more and can never have enough.
And they’ll go to their graves feeling miserable and lonely.

Talks between the US and Iran appeared to have concluded for now,
Following several hours of talks in Pakistan that are aimed at ending the weeks-long war between Washington and Tehran.
Different Iranian media outlets, including Fars news agency and Tasnim news agency,
are reporting that “serious disagreements” remain
but at the suggestion of Pakistan, another round of talks will be held on Sunday morning.
