CIB is here with a rundown of the last couple days of the 2024 Democratic National Convention, how the next generation of AI-assisted content manipulation could spell trouble for our ability to know things, and NPR is contacting PhDs to sort out if it’s too early in the season for a Pumpkin Spice Latte.

You can tell us all about it on our Substack, leave a comment on the show’s page on our website, or you can send us an email here. Enjoy!
