Kaitlyn Chen went to Veronica Burton's apartment on Friday night looking for a Halloween costume. The search didn't start with a hot dog costume but ended with one.

Whatever happens in Game 7 tonight, I am so proud of the Valkyries for this magical, unforgettable season, and grateful to be a part of this journey. No matter how it ends, I love this team and always will! 💜

We have a loved one scheduled to be on this flight. He will be killed if he’s returned to the Taliban. He supported the US mission in Afghanistan. He has broken no laws. He came here legally. Seeking asylum should not be a death sentence.
Breaking News: The Trump administration has detained dozens of Afghan immigrants in Louisiana — including relatives of those who helped the U.S. military — and plans to deport them to Afghanistan, according to U.S. officials. nyti.ms/4jPVvrw

Alzheimer’s science and development are finally catching up to the disease. But right now, the breakthroughs are moving faster than the system built to deliver them, which means a lot of patients aren’t seeing the benefits yet. Fixing that is the next big frontier in Alzheimer’s.

In July, I requested UT’s contracts with OpenAI and Anthropic. I received them two weeks ago today, after an Office of the Attorney General ruling. Today it’s our @thedailytexan cover story: thedailytexan.com/2026/10/29…

This is a painful post to share. Today we’re announcing that we’re shutting down @heyollieai on November 6. I’m really proud of what we accomplished. We built an incredible personal assistant with a small team, and learned a ton. I’m grateful to our amazing team, our users, our investors, and everyone who supported us on this journey. We got close, but ultimately couldn't keep up. With Muse, Instinct, and others entering the space, it became harder to stand out, grow, and raise the capital we needed to succeed. I’ll share more lessons and thoughts in the coming weeks as the emotions become less raw.

News Media Alliance's, @newsaliance, brief for plaintiffs says copying news to build competing products isn't fair use: "Common sense tells us this is not fair. And so does copyright law." They go heavy on commerciality and derivative work competition. courtlistener.com/docket/698…

The future of #ArtificialIntelligence is not pre-determined. As a technology developed by human beings, its future depends on the choices we make. We therefore have the responsibility to guide, change and, when necessary, reject its applications. A reliable system that serves the human person is of greater value than one that is exceptionally powerful but whose consequences cannot be adequately foreseen or controlled.

I got to spend some time with John Ternus and other Apple execs this week for the MB Pro launch. Here are some early thoughts on Apple's new CEO--and his responses to my questions. wired.com/story/i-spent-30-m…
