OFWMS: No Crowns, Just Clowns

Remember, BE FAST.

OpenAI is launching an AI-powered browser, its latest challenge to Google as the main way people find information online.

Codi launches what it hails as the first fully automated office manager.

We’ve compiled an overview of some of the top alternative browsers available today aiming to challenge Chrome and Safari.

It’s true, for the most part.  Glock is discontinuing the vast majority of their handguns due to modifications the company is making to prevent easy snap-in, after market products that allow for rapid firing of the weapon. Don’t worry, new models are coming in, but the value on your old Glocks will definitely be increasing …

Brooks and Dunn are doing their best to get out in front of the misinformation age of artificial intelligence. AI is running rampant on social media right now. Either you are fully aware of that (since you are trying to keep your parents from falling for it) or you are the one that’s being fooled. Some people can’t discern between the real and the fake online, and now with the introduction of the misinformation supplement known as AI, you really have to be on your toes. It’s even gotten to the point where artists and celebrities feel somewhat responsible when fans get duped by fake, AI-generated stories and scams. Even though artists like Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn have nothing to do with it, they become frustrated that more and more artificial intelligence slop hits the internet, with minimal to no policing. So it’s become rather common for high-profile individuals to put out statements like Brooks and Dunn did earlier this week. They took to social media to condemn AI and misinformation, and reminded their fans and followers that they should not believe anything they see about the “Neon Moon” singers unless it comes straight from them. And to be honest, I love how much they ripped into the modern times of artificial intelligence running amuck: “The internet’s gotten pretty wild lately. Seems like ‘AI’ can make anybody say or do just about anything these days. We’ve seen fake tour announcements, fake albums, fake hospital stories, even fake movies and documentaries. There is an epidemic of misinformation being distributed to countless sites across the internet. We’re working non-stop to eliminate the problem, but the sheer volume is overwhelming. Unfortunately, we can’t control it all. Welcome to the era of ungoverned, AI-generated falsehoods. If you see something with our name or face on it that didn’t come straight from our verified official accounts, don’t fall for it. For now, good old common sense seems to be the most effective weapon against the crazies and the ‘machine.’” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brooks & Dunn (@brooksanddunn) They are exactly right in saying that the “beast is outta the cage.” I can’t tell you how many fabricated AI stories I’ve come across on the internet. Social media accounts are pumping out “AI slop” stories about country music artists being in the hospital or refusing to play shows, and people are falling for it. Some have even been scammed by artificial intelligence. One person was almost positive that he was talking to Jelly Roll when he received a video where the rapper-turned-country-artist said the man’s name. But it was just an AI-powered scam, and like Brooks and Dunn said, it’s all pretty much ungoverned right now. My advice to you (more importantly to the older people in your life) is to ask yourself a couple of questions when you see something online, or get a message that seems too good to be true. If it feels like there is something off, chances are your instincts are serving you right. Shout out to the legendary country music duo for doing their best to help fight AI.The post Brooks & Dunn Issue Statement About AI Slop: “There Is An Epidemic Of Misinformation” first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Spilling about her side of the breakup. Back in March, influencer KT Smith was a guest on an episode of Bunnie XO’s Dumb Blonde podcast. KT shares a 5-year old son, Indigo, with Morgan Wallen, and the two were previously engaged during an on-again, off-again relationship between 2016 and 2019. Since this aired, KT and her current husband (soon to be ex-husband) Luke Scornavacco broke up and got back together, and during this particular episode, KT talked a lot about what led to their split and even said Luke’s career as an influencer gave her “the ick.” They actually stayed together for a little while after that, but earlier this month, Luke announced that the pair was officially getting divorced. Shocker… But also during that episode, KT opened up about her relationship with Morgan, which happened mostly before his skyrocket to stardom. KT said Morgan is a great dad, but she also discussed details from their relationship and prior engagement. And she also talked about her side of why it all came to an end… Back in 2017, Morgan got asked to tour with Florida Georgia Line, and KT joined him on the trek. Around the 40-minute mark of the episode, she explains that Morgan was “not the most faithful,” which led to her getting rid of her engagement ring. She says she was riding the van with all of the band guys, and during a show at a hole in the wall bar, she caught Morgan with another girl. She says he was very upset, though even though it happened multiple times, she never blamed him for it because she doesn’t know what it’s like to be thrust into the kind of position he was in terms of money, fame and having girls throw themselves at him all the time: “The engagement did not last long. We stayed together, but he wasn’t the most faithful. And so I threw the engagement ring, but stayed with him. I didn’t find out a lot of it until a lot later. But this time, I just walked out of the van, the tiny little van we were in… and so it was actually before a long drive that I walked out and saw him with another girl in the parking lot. This wasn’t even the tour yet, this was one of his private shows at one of the little hole in the wall bars. And I mean, he was just crying, sobbing, snotty, all of this stuff in front of his band. No, it was just in the parking lot, a whole crowd of people. I always still say, about the whole I can’t speak on a season I haven’t been through. Throughout all of the cheating and stuff, I’m going to say, I didn’t blame him for it. Because I don’t know how it would be to come into that much fame overnight, and just be huge and have all this success, and all these girls throwing themselves at you. I don’t know how that is, so I didn’t blame him for it.” She says she put up with a lot because she was so in love and thought Morgan “hung the moon and the stars’: “It happened lots more times than that. People always say ‘Oh, she cheated on him too. She wrote it in a blog.’ I’m like, show me the blog. I never cheated on him. I literally thought he hung the moon and the stars. I probably put him on such a pedestal above so many other things shouldn’t have at the time. I was very much in love with him.” KT admitted that she would always get messages from girls about what Morgan was doing, and he told her not to respond to because it wasn’t a good look for either of them, but eventually, KT asked another wife who was married to someone in Morgan’s similar position, and she advised KT to ask for proof. She did, and a girl sent all the texts and communications. KT recalled him crying once again, and she felt stuck because they were living together and other people were encouraging her to stay with him because he’d eventually get out of this phase, so to speak. She admits that he’s “grown tremendously” since then, and is a “great dad” and lives a great life. She says she has a ton of respect for him, and they co-parent really well together, which is really the most important thing when it comes to their young son: ‘He’s grown as a person.. I respect him more now than I ever have. His life is extremely private, but what people don’t see is that he has grown tremendously. I respect him so much as a person, he’s a great dad, and he lives a great life that’s private. And he can still do  what he does and while keeping it private, and I think that’s great. I love that he’s had that radical change, and it wasn’t with me, but thats okay. He’s a good dad, and we can co-parent well.” It’s great that they have been able to work things out for their son in terms of being able to communicate and make the best decisions on his behalf, and even though it didn’t work out for them romantically in the end, it sounds like there’s still a lot of respect and admiration there, even after all they’ve been through. Part of the podcast is available to watch below, and the full audio episode can be found on all streaming services.
