Ford is rehiring hundreds of human workers after its aggressive AI adoption strategy backfired.
The US automaker hired over 350 veteran engineers,
referred to internally as “gray beards”,
over the past three years in order to address mistakes made by automated systems.
The staff will lead quality reviews
after the automation issues cost the company billions of dollars, Bloomberg reported,
while some workers will also help improve and train the AI systems.

Immich vom VPS auf den Homeserver umziehen – mit WireGuard als sicherem Tunnel
Meine Fotoverwaltung läuft seit einiger Zeit als Immich-Instanz auf einem gemieteten VPS. Das hat funktioniert, aber 450 GB Fotos auf fremder Hardware zu hosten fühlt sich nicht ideal an – und die monatlichen Kosten für einen VPS mit ausreichend Speicher summieren sich.

Trump allows dairy farms a path for migrant labor,
upsetting anti-immigration camp
The Trump administration opened a new legal pathway for migrant farm workers,
yielding to an aggressive lobbying campaign by the dairy industry
and upsetting immigration enforcement hard-liners.

The administration announced in an agency memo that it would allow dairy farms to bring in migrant labor,
after shelving plans for a more public announcement by Trump during a trip …

The FBI in recent weeks has interviewed current and former election officials about the 2020 election in Milwaukee,
ramping up wide-ranging reviews of voting in the swing states that Donald Trump lost that year.

Election officials are watching the developments in Milwaukee to see if agents try to seize ballots,
as they did in January in Fulton County, Georgia.
The confiscation of tens of thousands of absentee ballots from Wisconsin’s largest city would set off alarms…
