The so-called first AI to "pass the video Turing test" just miserably failed each one of my extremely simple Turing tests.
Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test.
48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video.
It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The 48% figure and "video Turing test" claim are from Tavus's own study of 54 one-minute calls, not independently verified or using a standard protocol. Griffin-Lite leads NVIDIA's VideoFDB benchmark on their public leaderboard.

It’s a form of letting out impotent rage for those folks - who will very likely end up as future suicide statistics.
The last phase before they kill themself is isolation as people stop caring about even the most depraved attempts at getting attention.

Are "hell-or-high-water" clauses commonplace in developments of this scale?
Project Jupiter remains on our planned schedule. We are fully committed to New Mexico and confident in our path forward.
Oracle has made significant economic, community, and philanthropic investments in the state. This includes reimagining Project Jupiter’s power plan as part of our long-term commitment to be a good neighbor to the residents of Doña Ana County.
STACK Infrastructure has been a tremendous partner. Together, we are building New Mexico’s workforce for the long term. More than 3,600 construction workers are helping build the campus, including more than 1,000 New Mexico residents. More than 900 workers joined the team in August alone, reflecting the project’s continued growth. Collectively, they have logged more than 2.8 million hours worked.
We are excited about the more than $4.7 billion in economic benefit Project Jupiter is expected to bring to New Mexico.

A lesser show would just have stupid/lazy bureaucrats. But The Wire gives you these flashes that remind you that the higher-ups are actually quite competent, they just spend their time on accumulating power instead of doing anything useful. That's a much sharper critique.
Do y'all agree that the hospital confrontation in S1E11 is the ultimate turning point for how we view Rawls? 🙂
Every rewatch just hammers home how incredible the dialogue is during this interaction. McNulty is completely paralyzed by trauma, vomiting into a trash can after listening to the audio tape of the wiretap ambush.
Given their bitter history, you expect Rawls to use Kima's critical condition to completely bury Jimmy's career. Instead, he drops an inspired speech that stands as one of the most human moments in the series.
He tells Jimmy straight up: "Shit went bad, she took two for the company". By telling McNulty that everything doesn't revolve around him, Rawls uses tough love to snap his detective out of a dark, narcissistic guilt trip. It beautifully builds on the competency he showed earlier at the tracks when he moved the milk crates and cleared out the extra bodies to protect the forensic evidence.
The show refuses to let its villains be entirely evil, showing that while Rawls will comfortably exile McNulty to a freezing patrol boat a few episodes later, he possesses the fundamental integrity of a true homicide commander when a officer's life is on the line💯
