The name of the book is “Are They Dead Yet?: The Art of the Obit.” The author, Sam Roberts, is a 50-year veteran of New York journalism. He says in his book: “I’ve buried 1,600 or so people during my improbable decade writing obituaries for the New York Times.” Reporters who do his kind of reporting are called obituarists. Sam Roberts, in his book’s prologue, says he “learned more on the job about accuracy, context, and the distinction between cynicism and skepticism than I would have in any journalism school.”

Robert De Niro accused Donald Trump of single-handedly standing in the way of justice for Jeffrey Epstein’s victims, and called for his administration to release the remaining files.

🇺🇸 A Florida woman used Claude like a private diary and is now facing a felony charge after Anthropic reported one of her entries to the police.
According to an arrest report, Carli Michelle Heller wrote that she planned to “shoot up” the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, near Fort Myers.
Claude’s safety systems flagged the message, a human reviewer looked at it, and Anthropic decided the threat was serious enough to report to law enforcement.
She was detained and charged with making a written threat of violence, a second-degree felony in Florida.
The law requires the threat to be made somewhere another person could see it, which a chatbot with human reviewers apparently qualifies as.
Anthropic says it may share user information in emergencies when it believes that’s needed to prevent death or serious injury.
AI companies are under a lot of pressure on this right now.
British Columbia is suing OpenAI after it flagged a mass shooter’s conversations about gun violence but never alerted police.
So, useful reminder: an AI chatbot may feel like a private conversation, but it is definitely not the diary under your mattress.
