Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told CBS News there is a "0% chance" artificial intelligence ends the world by 2030, calling extinction warnings irresponsible, and arguing the real danger is letting fear override the laws already on the books. Huang, whose company manufactures the specialized chips powering virtually every major AI system in the country, sat down with CBS News correspondent Jo Ling Kent on Friday for a wide-ranging interview. He took direct aim at a growing chorus of AI researchers and rival executives who have urged the industry to slow down, dismissing their predictions as unscientific fearmongering. The interview landed one day after OpenAI disclosed six new incidents it described as "unexpected or concerning" behavior from…Open

A mid-air collision between two glider planes in a remote stretch of upstate New York left one pilot dead Friday afternoon, while the other landed safely, and federal investigators are now working to determine what went wrong.

One of the pilots managed to bring the aircraft down at the nearby Plateau Sky Ranch Airport and walked away uninjured. The second pilot was not as fortunate. Investigators spent more than two hours searching the rugged terrain before locating wreckage off Sand Lake Road in Edinburg, an area ABC News…Open

Sophomore rusher Nate Sheppard carried Duke to a dominant 35-7 victory over Stanford in Durham on Saturday, pushing the defending ACC champions to 3-0 while extending the Cardinal's road losing streak to a dismal 12 games. Sheppard ripped through Stanford's defense for 154 yards on 23 carries and found the end zone three times, twice on the ground and once on his only reception, a 2-yard score. The performance pushed his season rushing total past 500 yards through just three games, a pace that already trails only slightly behind the 1,132 yards he piled up across all of last season. Duke's ground game as a whole churned out 268 yards, and the Blue Devils never looked threatened after the opening minutes. The win marks Duke's fifth…Open

Minnesota Lynx guard Olivia Miles broke Caitlin Clark's WNBA record for points scored by a rookie in a single season, hitting the milestone on a free throw just 29 seconds into the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Connecticut Sun. Miles entered the September 20 matchup in Uncasville, Connecticut, tied with Clark at 769 points through 40 games. She went scoreless in the first quarter before stepping to the line early in the second and converting the free throw that gave her sole possession of the record. The AP reported that Miles came into the game averaging 19.7 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.7 rebounds, numbers that made the record a matter of when, not if. The Lynx carried the best record in the WNBA heading into Sunday's…Open
A federal appeals court has unanimously blocked the Department of Homeland Security from swiftly deporting immigrants to countries where they have no ties, a ruling that hands open-borders advocates a procedural win and could slow the administration's expanding deportation agreements with dozens of nations.

A federal appeals court has unanimously blocked the Department of Homeland Security from swiftly deporting immigrants to countries where they have no ties, a ruling that hands open-borders advocates a procedural win and could slow the administration's expanding deportation agreements with dozens of nations. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit ruled Friday that immigrants facing removal to third countries must receive prior notice of their intended destination and a meaningful chance to challenge it. The decision dismantles a DHS policy that relied on "diplomatic assurances" from receiving nations to justify sending deportees to countries they had never set foot in, sometimes without telling them where…Open
Is Islam compatible with Western civilization? In this excerpt from Theological, Shabbos Kestenbaum asks Ridvan Aydemir — known online as Apostate Prophet — to make the case he discussed with Charlie Kirk shortly before Kirk’s death: that Islam is incompatible with the West. Ridvan argues that the issue is not merely politics, immigration, or culture, but theology. He says Islam teaches a fundamentally different understanding of God, truth, morality, Jews, Christians, and non-Muslims. Shabbos then presses him on the common defense that Islam is a “religion of peace” and that terrorism is committed only by a small minority. Watch the full episode of Theological with Ridvan Aydemir for the full conversation on the Quran, Muhammad,…
