    Jennifer Hermoso, Spain’s star player on the winning  Women’s World Cup  team, said Friday at no point did she consent to an unwanted kiss by the country’s soccer chief and she has refused to give in to “continuous pressure to make a statement” that could justify his actions. “I felt vulnerable and a victim of an impulse-driven, sexist, out of place act without any consent on my part,” Hermoso said on social media. “Simply put I was not respected.” The president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation, Luis Rubiales, was filmed forcibly kissing Hermoso on the lips after she collected her winners’ medal Sunday in Sydney, Australia, an act which the 33-year-old World Cup winner later said she “didn’t like” and “didn’t expect.” Rubiales, 46, has so far refused to resign from his position following a week of fierce criticism. Speaking at the federation’s Extraordinary General Assembly on Friday, he said he will “fight to the end.” In a defiant speech, he described t...

  London CNN  —  The director of the British Museum has stepped down amid an  investigation  into the alleged theft of gold and artifacts from the famous London institution. Hartwig Fischer’s resignation has been accepted by the museum’s board of trustees. Explaining his decision in a statement on Friday, Fischer said: “Over the last few days I have been reviewing in detail the events around the thefts from the British Museum and the investigation into them. “It is evident that the British Museum did not respond as comprehensively as it should have in response to the warnings in 2021, and to the problem that has now fully emerged.” Parthenon fragments returned by the Vatican go on display in Greece The museum said in a statement last week that a number of items from the museum’s collection were found to be “missing, stolen or damaged,” leading to the dismissal of an employee and an investigation by the Metropolitan Police. “The British Museum has launched an ind...

  We're in the midst of another FOMO frenzy over artificial intelligence (AI),  and especially large language model-based systems like ChatGPT. Seems like millions of companies and dozens of VCs are rushing to invest billions in what they hope is going to be the next best thing. The term AI has become sloppy shorthand and an overused, misapplied buzzword (like crypto, blockchain and Web 3.0) that's so broad as to cease to be descriptive. AI is so widely misunderstood that the only thing most of these folks actually know about the subject is that they certainly don't want to miss out on it. Even if they don't really know what the "it" is that they'd be missing. But what's even more discouraging is that this is one of those semantic swamps and media-driven hypes that you wade into and, as you're slowly sinking your precious capital and tech resources into the bog and your team is finally learning something concrete about the relevant applications of ...

An F-16 rises from low altitude in Canada in this file photo. The United States has approved sending F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine from Denmark and the Netherlands, according to an unnamed U.S. official, as reported by Reuters. The aircraft would be sent as soon as pilot training is completed, the report said. Ukraine has long been lobbying Western allies for the war planes, and while U.S. President Joe Biden agreed to training Ukrainian pilots in May, no timeline had been set for delivery of the aircraft. Meanwhile, Germany has delivered two IRIS-T air defense systems to Ukraine after first agreeing to supply Ukraine with the weapons in June 2022.
