Trump was unable to insult his way to victory in Indiana redistricting battle
48+ min ago (863+ words) By THOMAS BEAUMONT and ISABELLA VOLMERT If Indiana Republican senators had any doubt about what to do with President Donald Trump's redistricting proposal, he helped them make up their minds the night before this week's vote. In a social media screed, Trump accused the state's top senator of being "a bad guy, or a very stupid one." "That kind of language doesn't help," said Sen. Travis Holdman, a banker and lawyer from near Fort Wayne who voted against the plan. He was among 21 Republican senators who dealt Trump one of the most significant political defeats of his second term by voting down redistricting in Indiana. The decision undermined the president's national campaign to redraw congressional maps to boost his party's chances in the upcoming midterm elections. In interviews after Thursday's vote, several Republican senators said they were leaning against the…...

55+ min ago (471+ words) By Caroline Petrow-Cohen, Los Angeles Times The grocery delivery service Instacart is using artificial intelligence to experiment with prices and charge some shoppers more than others for the same items, a new study found. The study from nonprofits Groundwork Collaborative and Consumer Reports followed more than 400 shoppers in four cities and found that Instacart sometimes offered as many as five different sales prices for the exact same item, at the same store and on the same day. The average difference between the highest price and lowest price on the same item was 13%, but some participants in the study saw prices that were 23% higher than those offered to other shoppers. The varying prices are unfair to consumers and exacerbate a grocery affordability crisis that regular Americans are already struggling to cope with, said Lindsey Owens, executive director of Groundwork Collaborative. "In…...
Humanoid robots take center stage at Silicon Valley summit, but skepticism remains
1+ hour, 17+ min ago (680+ words) But the commercial boom in artificial intelligence has lit a spark under long-simmering visions to build humanoid robots that can move their mechanical bodies like humans and do things that people do. Alaoui, founder of the Humanoids Summit, gathered more than 2,000 people this week, including top robotics engineers from Disney, Google and dozens of startups, to showcase their technology and debate what it will take to accelerate a nascent industry. Alaoui says many researchers now believe humanoids or some other kind of physical embodiment of AI are "going to become the norm." "The question is really just how long it will take," he said. Even at a conference designed to build enthusiasm for the technology, held at a Computer History Museum that's a temple to Silicon Valley's previous breakthroughs, skepticism remained high that truly humanlike robots will take root anytime…...
Knicks reportedly interested in getting DiVincenzo back from Minnesota
1+ hour, 21+ min ago (340+ words) The Knicks are allegedly interested in bring Donte DiVincenzo back to New York. According to a report from ClutchPoints, "Minnesota sent New York's front office several trade proposals" that never came close to satisfying the Knicks. The report goes on to say that the Wolves "have some interest in the protected first-round pick the Knicks are owed by the Washington Wizards." The pick is top-eight protected in 2026, meaning the Wizards will keep the pick if they finish with one of the four worst records in the NBA. Entering play Friday, they own the worst record in the league. That means it's a good bet that the Wizards will instead be sending the Knicks two future second-round picks (2026 and 2027), while keeping their 2026 first-round selection. It's unclear what kind of deal Minnesota offered the Knicks, but one idea that might be interesting…...
