Sechs AfD-Politiker sterben kurz vor der Kommunalwahl in NRW. Parteichefin Alice Weidel und Elon Musk befeuern daraufhin Verschwörungstheorien. Pauline von Petzold hat recherchiert, was dahintersteckt – und wie die AfD die Todesfälle nutzt, um vom eigenen Streit abzulenken. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview: Kay Gottschalk. Der Vize-Landeschef der NRW-AfD stellt sich den Vorwürfen: Wie viel PR steckt in der angeblichen Verschwörung? Und was sagt er zum internen Streit in Teilen seines Landesverbandes? Außerdem: Die Grünen suchen nach dem Abgang von Habeck und Baerbock weiter nach einem neuen Kurs. Jürgen Klöckner analysiert die Zerreißprobe zwischen linkem Social-Media-Krawall und pragmatischer Realpolitik, die auch die Landtagswahl 2026 in Baden-Württemberg im Blick haben muss.

เรื่องราวของ OpenAI ที่หลายคนไม่รู้ #1
C'était l'un des réseaux sociaux les plus marquants des années 2010. Vine, avec ses vidéos de six secondes, avait su séduire des millions d'utilisateurs avant de disparaître en 2017, après son rachat par Twitter. Huit ans plus tard, l'application culte pourrait renaître… sous l'impulsion d'Elon Musk. Le patron de X – ex-Twitter – a annoncé son intention de ressusciter Vine, mais dans une version inédite intégrant l'intelligence artificielle. Peu de détails pour l'instant, mais l'annonce suffit déjà à susciter l'enthousiasme et la curiosité. Car au-delà de la nostalgie, ce projet pourrait bien transformer notre façon de consommer la vidéo courte.À son apogée, Vine avait réuni plus de 200 millions d'utilisateurs dans le monde grâce à un concept aussi simple qu'efficace : six secondes pour captiver. Une formule qui a marqué toute une génération et influencé durablement les formats de TikTok, Instagram Reels ou encore YouTube Shorts. Aujourd'hui, Elon Musk veut miser sur ce format bref, parfaitement adapté à l'ère numérique actuelle où l'attention se mesure en secondes. L'innovation viendrait cette fois de l'IA. Le laboratoire xAI, créé par Musk, pourrait développer des outils capables de générer automatiquement des vidéos personnalisées. Une manière de combiner créativité et technologie de pointe. L'idée : permettre à chacun de produire facilement des contenus dynamiques, sans perdre l'esprit original du format court.D'ailleurs, ce type de contenu coïncide avec les limites actuelles de la vidéo générée par intelligence artificielle, souvent restreinte à quelques secondes. Google a récemment dévoilé une fonctionnalité similaire avec des mini-clips créés à partir de photos. De quoi renforcer la pertinence de ce format express, pensé pour être viral et facilement partageable. Mais de nombreuses questions restent ouvertes : quelles seront les fonctionnalités exactes ? Comment l'IA changera-t-elle l'expérience utilisateur ? Vine peut-il réellement trouver sa place dans un paysage déjà saturé par TikTok et consorts ? Une chose est sûre : si le projet aboutit, il pourrait redonner vie à une légende du web et séduire à la fois les nostalgiques et une nouvelle génération d'utilisateurs. Le pari est audacieux. Reste à voir si Elon Musk réussira à rallumer la flamme Vine. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk marked the one-year anniversary of Autonomy Markets and discussed the reignited debate between LiDAR and vision-only after comments made by Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi during an interview. During the interview, Mr. Khosrowshahi stated that in the short term, a combination of camera, LiDAR, and radar is the “right solution,” noting that all of Uber's current partners use this combination. This statement prompted a response from Elon Musk, who argued via a post on X that LiDAR and radar actually reduce safety due to “sensor contention” and reaffirmed Tesla's commitment to a camera-only system. Beyond the technical debate, Grayson and Walt discussed Tesla's expanded Robotaxi service in Austin and the growing opposition to a potential Waymo deployment in New York City.Episode Chapters0:00 One-Year Anniversary of Autonomy Markets2:14 Dara Khosrowshahi Reignites LiDAR vs Vision-Only Debate9:24 Elon Musk's LiDAR Rebuttal 11:49 What if Tesla Embraced LiDAR?14:29 Robotaxi Expands in Austin, Once Again18:14 Traffic Fatalities 20:32 Waymo Begins Testing in New York City26:06 Boring Company is Testing FSD Supervised in Las Vegas29:07 Stellantis Shuts Down Internal ADAS Development Program31:28 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, August 28, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Mars is inhospitable to human life with its cosmic radiation, atmosphere of carbon dioxide and nights as cold as 200 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. But as Space X founder Elon Musk pledges to colonize Mars, and as NASA renews its push for interplanetary travel, a husband and wife duo has explored whether people really can live in space. What would it require to have babies on another planet? To grow food? To prevent conflicts in space from sparking geopolitical chaos on Earth?

Right On Radio — live, fast and urgent on August 29, 2025. The host opens the last live show of the month with a rapid-fire format, the listener-driven "Word on Word" game comparing Proverbs 16:3 and Galatians 3:28, and a decisive community vote. The episode balances Scripture, current events, and a featured audio clip that frames the rest of the analysis. The centerpiece is a previously aired six‑minute clip about "Looking Glass" timeline technology, its alleged ability to forecast and constrain futures, and the idea of a timeline convergence that cannot be manipulated past a certain point. The clip and host decode themes of inevitability, awakening, dark vs. light forces, and the belief that divine providence ultimately limits elite control — including commentary about the rise of an Antichrist figure as part of God's larger plan. The host then delivers rapid‑fire news and analysis: commentary on the reported firing of a Federal Reserve governor and claims the Fed has been moved under Treasury management, anticipation of President Trump's state visit (Sept 17–19) and his U.N. address (Sept 23), and fresh speculation about the City of London, Israel and Gaza. Recent law‑enforcement moves such as the Bolton home raid are discussed as public‑perception preparation for broader indictments and arrests. The show ties together recurring names and institutions — Soros, the Rothschilds, Elon Musk's contentions, the Red Cross/Haiti/Clinton threads, and concerns about human‑trafficking/pedophilia investigations — while warning of accelerating developments. On a cultural note, the host plays a short comedic roast clip (Sean Hayes) targeting Alec Baldwin to lighten the mood, then closes with music. The broadcast also celebrates meeting a Podbean support goal that preserved their silver status and thanks listeners for donating and participating. Practical details and community touches: listeners are invited to Saturday night prayer on the show's Telegram channel at 8 p.m., and the host previews Sunday's program covering 1 Thessalonians chapter 3. The episode weaves scripture, geopolitical interpretation, prophetic framing and media commentary — an overview of what to expect for listeners seeking spiritual perspective on rapidly unfolding news.

Follow along with slideshow visuals HERE. ENCORE ALERT! The Feminist Buzzkills are out on a summer break! But, no need to fear – we're leaving y'all with some extra brain juice to keep you company while we're offline. We're dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we collabed with the iconic “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy and Jess Pieklo IN DC and broke down SCOTUS' Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic arguments back in April. It went a little something like this… ATTENTION BUZZKILLAHSSSSS! WE DID A LIVE THING – in DC! Yep. Your “Feminist Buzzkills” joined forces with the “Boom! Lawyered” pod for an epic live show! After getting word that SCOTUS was hearing a case that could result in eliminating any healthcare provider from Medicaid payments if they provide abortion, we geared up for battle for one super-sized show with the amazing “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy (Rewire Editor-at-Large) and Jess Pieklo (Rewire Senior Vice President, Executive Editor.) We break down what this case means, and fill you in on all the outrageous tricks clown lawmakers across the country are playing trying to destroy access to reproductive care. It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT! This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion. Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up! Tune in for the legal brilliance, the laughs, the knowledge, and some actions you can take to be the change you wanna see in this world. Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all. We gotchu. Scared? Got Questions about the continued assault on your reproductive rights? THE FBK LINES ARE OPEN! Just call or text (201) 574-7402, leave your questions or concerns, and Lizz and Moji will pick a few to address on the pod! OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: WE DID A THING EARLIER THIS MONTH! The Feminist Buzzkills took some big patriarchy-smashing heat to The Big Easy and recorded a live workshop that'll train you in coming for anti-abobo lawmakers, spotting and fighting against fake clinics, AND gears you up on how to support abortion patients and providers.

From World Economic Forum elites and Silicon Valley execs to celebrities like Elon Musk and Paris Hilton to hippies and even maybe your co-worker, every year right before Labor Day, thousands take their vacation time to gather in the Nevada desert for something most would never expect, that is, Burning Man. On the surface, it looks like the ultimate art festival, tens of thousands gathering to build a city, celebrate creativity, and watch a giant wooden effigy go up in flames, but is that all that it is? Behind the radical costumes, the music, and the fire, there's a deeper story. A story of ritual, drugs, grief, and a search for meaning outside of God. What began in 1986 as a small bonfire on a San Francisco beach has grown into a worldwide phenomenon. But the question remains, what is really being celebrated in the desert?

Over the course of eight years in the cast of ‘Saturday Night Live,' Beck Bennett performed comedy with more than 150 celebrity hosts. But no one—not even Donald Trump himself—was as difficult to work with as Elon Musk. In the 300th episode of The Last Laugh, Bennett looks back on his SNL audition, discusses what it was like to join the show with one of his oldest friends Kyle Mooney (with whom he just launched his own new podcast), and reveals exactly what made Musk a more “offensive” collaborator than Trump. He explains how he knows Vladimir Putin liked his shirtless impression a lot more than Trump liked Alec Baldwin's portrayal, how he knew it was finally time to leave the show, and how Lorne Michaels nearly talked him into staying. Finally, Bennett talks about the two very different movies he appears in this summer: voicing a cartoon dog in the raunchy Netflix movie ‘Fixed' and joining the DC cinematic universe as The Daily Planet's Steve Lombard in ‘Superman.'Follow Beck Bennett on Instagram @beckbennettFollow Matt Wilstein on Bluesky @mattwilstein Follow The Last Laugh on Instagram @lastlaughpodHighlights from this episode and others at The Daily Beast Hosted on Acast.

Today's Headlines: Trump claims he's “not-a-dictator” while justifying plans to send the National Guard into states under the banner of fighting crime. He followed that up by signing a stack of executive orders: one to criminalize flag-burning (directly challenging a Supreme Court ruling that protects it as free speech), and another targeting cashless bail by pressuring cities and D.C. to roll it back. He also picked new fights with Chris Christie and threatened to have FCC revoke their licenses - which he can't really do. Meanwhile, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is openly defying Trump, calling him a wannabe dictator and vowing to stop him. On Capitol Hill, the House Oversight Committee subpoenaed Epstein's estate for financial records, contacts, and his infamous birthday book. In deportation news, ICE re-detained Kilmar Abrego Garcia—less than 24 hours after his release—though a judge has temporarily blocked his deportation to Uganda. In other news, Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro is urging citizens to join the pro-government militia in response to U.S. warships and a $50M bounty on his head (though his claim of 4.5M soldiers is… generously padded). Trade tensions are also flaring again, with foreign postal services pausing shipments to the U.S. over confusion around Trump's changes to tariff exemptions. Lastly, Elon Musk's xAI is suing Apple and OpenAI, accusing them of illegally rigging the AI market by locking ChatGPT into every iPhone.
