Trump's political operation has a $416 million war chest, which it did not begin pouring into attack ads until around Labor Day.

Trump's team said early in the year that he would campaign weekly for GOP candidates, but that did not happen. He now says he will spend the final 30 days campaigning for candidates in 35 key Senate and House races.

Polls show GOP Sen. Roger Marshall is in a tight race against Democrat Adam Hamilton. If Hamilton wins, he would be the first Kansas Democrat to win a Senate seat since 1932.

If their numbers do not improve, Republicans say they could redirect money to Michigan and New Hampshire, where the party is playing offense.

In North Carolina, neither former Gov. Roy Cooper (D) nor Michael Whatley (former Republican National Committee chair) have accepted at least three debate invitations, though both indicated they are open to debating. In Ohio, former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D) assumes he will debate Republican Sen. Jon Husted, but nothing has been scheduled.

Democratic state Rep. James Talarico has accepted invitations to three televised debates against Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton. While Paxton's campaign says he will debate Talarico, they have not committed to any of the proposed events.

In 2022, when facing Republican Kari Lake, Hobbs argued that Lake would turn a debate into a spectacle of "constant interruptions, pointless distractions, and childish name-calling." This year, she is refusing to debate Republican Rep. Andy Biggs because her campaign believes "engaging directly with Arizonans is more effective than a debate stage built for 'short soundbites and political theater.'"

Iowa has four scheduled gubernatorial debates this fall, a significant increase from one in 2022, which is a sign of how hotly contested the Republican-led state has become as support for Trump and his policies has "cratered in farm country."

No, not all privacy changes offered to Muse users apply to those accessing Meta AI through other means, such as the Facebook, Instagram, or Meta AI apps.

These features arrived first in WhatsApp, where Meta also provides end-to-end encryption, and have more recently spread to other Meta apps.

Alan Butler noted that Meta's products embedding microphones and cameras in everyday devices pose serious privacy risks regarding people being recorded or surveilled, arguing that confidential processing does not solve the problem of pushing embedded surveillance systems into the world.

The default setting in Muse allows interactions to be used for training the company's AI models, though users have the option to turn this off.

Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh warns that the influx of outside capital risks allowing the buildout to race ahead of actual demand, which could lead to oversupply and a subsequent collapse in prices, similar to real estate cycles.

The AI buildout absorbs massive amounts of capital, creating pressure on borrowing costs elsewhere in the economy. This puts the industry in competition for funds with the U.S. government (which is financing a $2 trillion annual deficit) and individuals seeking home mortgages or car loans.

The surge of outside money, much of it from private credit, spreads potential risks across the financial system through financing structures that are harder for investors and regulators to track. This increased complexity and opacity makes it difficult to track where risks are being distributed, involving sources such as pension funds and sovereign wealth funds.

To earn a 10% return, the infrastructure would need to generate $3.7 trillion in annual revenue in the next six years, which is roughly 9% of GDP.

The damage is being caused by lost sales, disrupted workdays, and logistical snarls resulting from the strikes.

The economic damage from Russian strikes, which includes lost sales, disrupted workdays, and logistical snarls, is estimated to be in the billions of dollars.
