OPENAI o3: IMPRESSIVE CODEFORCES FEAT, WITH A CATCH OpenAI o3 achieved a Codeforces rating of 2727, putting it on par with the 175th best competitive coder worldwide. This is a groundbreaking moment, showcasing the potential of AI to tackle complex programming tasks. However, o3 operates without human constraints like time limits. Its superhuman rating is powered by immense compute resources, allowing it to test and refine solutions in ways humans simply can't. An incredible achievement, but not quite a level playing field—yet. Source: arcprize, @deedydas

The bill gutted protections for the January 6 Committee and yanked funding from a State Department agency accused of silencing conservatives.

🚨🇲🇾 MALAYSIA GREENLIGHTS ANOTHER SHOT AT FINDING MH370 Nearly a decade after MH370 vanished with 239 people on board, Malaysia has given Ocean Infinity another chance to do what years of searching couldn’t—find the plane. Armed with fresh data and plenty of optimism, the UK- and US-based firm will scour 5,800 square miles of the Indian Ocean. The deal? “No find, no fee.” If they hit the jackpot, Malaysia owes them $70 million. The search is expected to kick off in early 2025, during prime ocean-scouring season, January to April. Families, still desperate for answers, hope this isn’t just another wild goose chase. After all, some debris turned up years ago, but the mystery still has more twists than a Netflix docuseries. Fingers crossed this time someone actually finds something. Source: CBS

🚨🇺🇸 CFPB SUES BIG BANKS OVER $870M ZELLE FRAUD SCANDAL The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is suing Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Zelle’s parent company, accusing them of turning Zelle into a “gold mine for fraudsters.” Over seven years, customers lost $870 million to scams—while many were told to chase down scammers themselves to recover their money. CFPB Director, Rohit Chopra: “The nation’s largest banks felt threatened by competing payment apps, so they rushed to put out Zelle. By their failing to put in place proper safeguards, Zelle became a gold mine for fraudsters, while often leaving victims to fend for themselves.” Zelle called the lawsuit “factually flawed,” while JPMorgan Chase has threatened to sue the CFPB back—because apparently no one likes being blamed for $870 million in customer losses.

Before turning the barbershop into a drive-thru, the SUV had already hit a church and several cars. The injured were taken to the hospital, and police are now investigating the situation.

🇺🇸BIDEN PLANS TO EMPTY DEATH ROW? Word is, Biden’s thinking about commuting the sentences of every single one of the 40 men on federal death row—including Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. Looks like Biden’s planning to put the brakes on Trump’s execution spree, which set a new bar for speed and efficiency during his first term. Critics, of course, are not thrilled. They argue this could completely ignore victims' families and open the door for accusations of undermining justice. Source: WSJ, @CollinRugg Media Source: CNN
