'Killer' car seats are still being sold online a decade after they were first identified, experts have warned. More than a dozen flimsy fabric seats marketed as safe for young children have been seen on popular websites including eBay, Little Dreams, ManoMano, Shein and Wish. These seats, which cost as little as £12.50, contain 'fundamental flaws' that put children's lives at risk. Consumer champion Which? first exposed the sale of these car seats 10 years ago and the listings were taken down at the time.

On Thursday, the Federal Trade Commission ordered several tech companies to cough up information about how they test, make, distribute and monetize their AI chatbots.

The inquiry also includes Google's parent company, Snapchat's parent company, Instagram and its owner Meta, Elon Musk's xAI, and the popular chatbot-maker Character.AI.

Butch is a rescue who has some trauma from his earlier life. He's shy and timid and doesn't like children or vacuum cleaners. I lived with Butch for almost three years; my own dog also lived with us during that time. Last year, while our house was being vacuumed by a housekeeper, Butch bit her on her calf. I was there, and I attended to the woman and made sure she was OK.

I can't explain the feeling, the mother told the newspaper of learning her one-year-old had been collected by a man she didn't know. We don't blame him. We are not angry with him. We are not upset at him we blame the daycare.

Back then, nothing delighted a couple of preschoolers more than strapping into a big, motorized cargo bike and scooting around town, shrieking, with the wind blowing in their tiny faces. Alas, they are now 8 and 10. When I picked up my 8-year-old two days ago, he crouched down in the box while sitting on the padded seats (with seat belts!) so that none of his friends would see him.

The number of SUVs in England is on the rise, with more than 800,000 registered in London alone, as of 2022. The number of SUVs in England's cities has increased from 3% to 30% of cars in the last two decades. In physical terms, London's SUVs now take up the same space as the entire borough of Kensington and Chelsea, while the entire country's SUVs would cover all of Manchester. This has led to calls for anti-SUV measures, taking the lead from cities like Pari, which cut SUV parking down by two-thirds.

Over a few months of increasingly heavy engagement, ChatGPT allegedly went from a teen's go-to homework help tool to a "suicide coach." In a lawsuit filed Tuesday, mourning parents Matt and Maria Raine alleged that the chatbot offered to draft their 16-year-old son Adam a suicide note after teaching the teen how to subvert safety features and generate technical instructions to help Adam follow through on what ChatGPT claimed would be a "beautiful suicide."

There are limitations to what we can see with this data, but what we have so far is accurate. If anything I think it's undercounting the scale of the problem.
