What the midterms mean for AI and data centers, Apple's agent warning, and GIFs in ChatGPT
Last week's midterm elections turned partly on data centers, the huge computer buildings behind AI, and the new Congress and statehouses are expected to look harder at both. We look at what that means nationally and for Beaufort and Jasper counties, and at a jumpy week for tech stocks. Also: Apple's annual report warns that AI agents can act in ways nobody intended, ChatGPT can now make animated GIFs, and OpenAI pledges to pay for the power its data centers use. Plus our first meeting on Monday, November 9, a request to take the member survey, a beginner's path through the ChatGPT class guide for better prompts, Jim's story of using Gemini to check a purchase in a store, a look at fake ads that imitate real companies, and two resources from the Federal Trade Commission.
