Do you want to see your teeth while you are brushing them?
I go to the dentist for teeth cleanings regularly. I have no interest when he tries to use his little mirror, coaxing me to open wider to show me what's going on in my back left molar.

Scarlett Johansson said Monday that she was “shocked, angered and in disbelief” when she heard that OpenAI used a voice “eerily similar” to hers for its new ChatGPT 4.0 chatbot, even after she had declined to provide her voice.
Earlier on Monday, OpenAI announced on X that it would pause the AI voice, known as “Sky,” while it addresses “questions about how we chose the voices in ChatGPT.” The company said in a blog post that the “Sky” voice was “not an imitation” of Johansson’s voice, but that it was recorded by a different professional actor, whose identity the company would not reveal to protect her privacy.

But Johansson said in a statement to NPR on Monday that OpenAI’s Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman had asked her in September to voice the ChatGPT 4.0 system because he thought her “voice would be comforting to people.” She declined, but nine months later, her friends, family and the public noticed how the “Sky” voice resembled hers.

Senator Ron Johnson (Q-Moscow) is complaining again, which, in itself, is nothing new. The guy isn't happy unless he's complaining. Biden's saving people from the pandemic.

His latest cause for griping is that protesters are being allowed to exercise their Freedom of Speech near the forums of the RNC convention in Milwaukee this summer.
(SARASOTA, Fla.) — Trump Media and Technology Group, the owner of former President Donald Trump’s social networking site Truth Social, lost more than $300 million last quarter, according to its first earnings report as a publicly traded company.
For the three-month period that ended March 31, the company posted a loss of $327.6 million, which it said included $311 million in non-cash expenses related to its merger with a company called Digital World Acquisition Corp., which was essentially a pile of cash looking for a target to merge with.
(ANCHORAGE, Alaska) — A 70-year-old Alaska man who was attempting to take photos of two newborn moose calves was attacked and killed by their mother, authorities said Monday.
