Physician-scientist David Fajgenbaum was dying from a rare disease that didn't have a cure — until he discovered a lifesaving drug that wasn't originally intended for his condition.

WorkWorkGoogle and Apple dodge an antitrust bullet - The EconomistAfter Chatgpt was launched in 2022, generative artificial intelligence (ai) quickly came to be seen as an existential threat to the search business of Google, owned by Alphabet. It has turned out to be the firm's saviour - at least in one sense.

The Trump Administration heralded the removal of the exhibit as a principled and necessary step. Sherald quickly decried it as censorship. Though the Administration likely had numerous gripes about Sheralds reimagining of what is maybe the most recognizable American symbol, the controversy demonstrates the shaky future of trans art. Imagine how much uproar there would have been had the work in question not only depicted a trans woman but been created by one.
