BANGKOK — Japanese automakers Honda and Nissan will attempt to merge and create the world's third-largest automaker by sales as the industry undergoes dramatic changes in its transition away from fossil fuels. Nissan Chief Executive Makoto Uchida, left, Honda Chief Executive Toshihiro Mibe, center, and Takao Kato, CEO of Mitsubishi Motors, right, pose for photographers during a joint news conference in Tokyo, Japan, Monday, Dec. 23, 2024. The two companies said they had signed a memorandum of understanding on Monday and that smaller Nissan alliance member Mitsubishi Motors also had agreed to join the talks on integrating their businesses. Honda will initially lead the new management, retaining the principles and brands of each company. Following is a quick look at what a combined Honda and Nissan would mean for the companies, and for the auto industry. An industry shakeup The ascent of Chinese automakers is rattling the industry at a time when manufacturers are struggling to shift from fossil fuel-driven vehicles to electrics. Relatively inexpensive EVs from China's BYD, Great Wall and Nio are eating into the market shares of U.S. and Japanese car companies in China and elsewhere. Japanese automakers have lagged behind big rivals in EVs and are now trying to cut costs and make up for lost time. Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi announced in August that they will share components for electric vehicles like batteries and jointly research software for autonomous driving to adapt better to dramatic changes in the auto industry centered around electrification. A preliminary agreement between Honda, Japan's second-largest automaker, and Nissan, third largest, was announced in March. A merger could result in a behemoth worth about $55 billion based on the market capitalization of all three automakers. Joining forces would help the smaller Japanese automakers add scale to compete with Japan's market leader Toyota Motor Corp. and with Germany's Volkswagen AG. Toyota itself has technology partnerships with Japan's Mazda Motor Corp. and Subaru Corp. What would Honda need from Nissan? Nissan has truck-based body-on-frame large SUVs such as the Armada and Infiniti QX80 that Honda doesn't have, with large towing capacities and good off-road performance, said Sam Fiorani, vice president of AutoForecast Solutions. Nissan also has years of experience building batteries and electric vehicles, and gas-electric hybird powertrains that could help Honda in developing its own EVs and next generation of hybrids, he said. "Nissan does have some product segments where Honda doesn't currently play," that a merger or partnership could help, said Sam Abuelsamid, a Detroit-area automotive industry analsyt. While Nissan's electric Leaf and Ariya haven't sold well in the U.S., they're solid vehicles, Fiorani said. "They haven't been resting on their laurels, and they have been developing this technology," he said. "They have new products coming that could provide a good platform for Honda for its next generation." Why now? Nissan said last month that it was slashing 9,000 jobs, or about 6% of its global work force, and reducing global production capacity by 20% after reporting a quarterly loss of 9.3 billion yen ($61 million). Earlier this month it reshuffled its management and its chief executive, Makoto Uchida, took a 50% pay cut to take responsibility for the financial woes, saying Nissan needed to become more efficient and respond better to market tastes, rising costs and other global changes. Fitch Ratings recently downgraded Nissan's credit outlook to "negative," citing worsening profitability, partly due to price cuts in the North American market. But it noted that it has a strong financial structure and solid cash reserves that amounted to 1.44 trillion yen ($9.4 billion). Nissan's share price has fallen to the point where it is considered something of a bargain. A report in the Japanese financial magazine Diamond said talks with Honda gained urgency after the Taiwan maker of iPhones Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., better known as Foxconn, began exploring a possible acquisition of Nissan as part of its push into the EV sector. The company has struggled for years following a scandal that began with the arrest of its former chairman Carlos Ghosn in late 2018 on charges of fraud and misuse of company assets, allegations that he denies. He eventually was released on bail and fled to Lebanon. Honda reported its profits slipped nearly 20% in the first half of the April-March fiscal year from a year earlier, as sales suffered in China. More headwinds Toyota made 11.5 million vehicles in 2023, while Honda rolled out 4 million and Nissan produced 3.4 million. Mitsubishi Motors made just over 1 million. Even after a merger Toyota would remain the leading Japanese automaker. All the global automakers are facing potential shocks if President-elect Donald Trump follows through on threats to raise or impose tariffs on imports of foreign products, even from allies like Japan and neighboring countries like Canada and Mexico. Nissan is among the major car companies that have adjusted their supply chains to include vehicles assembled in Mexico. Meanwhile, analysts say there is an "affordability shift" taking place across the industry, led by people who feel they cannot afford to pay nearly $50,000 for a new vehicle. In American, a vital market for companies like Nissan, Honda and Toyota, that's forcing automakers to consider lower pricing, which will eat further into industry profits.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Josh Allen threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score, and the Buffalo Bills clinched the AFC’s No. 2 seed with a 40-14 rout of the unraveling and undisciplined New York Jets on Sunday. The Bills put the game away by capitalizing on two Jets turnovers and scoring three touchdowns over a 5:01 span in the closing minutes of the third quarter. Buffalo’s defense forced three takeaways overall and sacked Aaron Rodgers four times, including a 2-yard loss for a safety in the second quarter. Allen had a short and efficient outing, finishing 16 of 27 for 182 yards with a 30-yard TD pass to Amari Cooper and a 14-yarder to Keon Coleman before giving way to backup Mitchell Trubisky with Buffalo leading 33-0 through three quarters. And Trubisky piled on by completing a 69-yard touchdown pass to practice squad call-up Tyrell Shavers 2:23 into the fourth quarter. Allen’s two-TD passing outing was the 64th of his career to match Peyton Manning for the third most in a player’s first seven NFL seasons. Patrick Mahomes holds the record with 67 two-TD outings in that span, followed by Dan Marino’s 65. Allen also became the NFL’s first player with five consecutive 40-TD seasons, while his 1-yard score was the 65th rushing TD of his career, matching the team record held by Thurman Thomas. The five-time defending AFC East champion Bills improved to 13-3 to match a franchise single-season record, and will open the playoffs hosting the conference’s seventh-seeded team in two weeks. The outing was a meltdown for Rodgers and the Jets (4-12), who will finish with five or fewer wins for the seventh time over a 14-season playoff drought — the NFL’s longest active streak. Rodgers, who entered the game with 499 career TD passes and looking to become just the fifth player to reach 500, instead was shut out and replaced by Tyrod Taylor with 12:37 remaining. Discipline was an issue for a Jets team that fell to 2-9 since Jeff Ulbrich took over as interim coach. New York finished with 16 accepted penalties for 120 yards. Taylor accounted for New York’s only points with a 9-yard TD pass to Garrett Wilson and a 20-yarder to Tyler Conklin in a game played in blustery, unseasonably warm conditions, with temperatures in the mid-50s Farenheit (10 Celsius) and winds gusting up to 35 mph (56 kmph). Rodgers finished 12 of 18 for 112 yards with two interceptions after entering the game having thrown only one in his past eight outings. He was also sacked four times, pushing his career total to 568, moving ahead of Tom Brady (565) and into first place on the NFL list. The outing became a comedy of errors for the Jets. Trailing 7-0 after Allen’s 1-yard run, New York’s three possession of the first half ended with turning the ball over on downs Buffalo’s 24; Rodgers being intercepted at his own 17 by defensive tackle Jordan Phillips ; and being sacked for a safety by A.J. Epenesa. The bottom fell out to close the third quarter when Rodgers’ being intercepted by Christian Benford led to Cooper’s leaping TD grab put Buffalo up 19-0. James Cook scored on a 1-yard run on Buffalo’s next possession with 1:15 left, and Coleman’s touchdown with 12 seconds left in the third was set up after Wilson lost a fumble. The Bills finished their third season with a perfect record, and first since 1990, by going 8-0 at home. They've won 11 straight regular-season home games dating to last season since dropping a 24-22 decision to Denver on Nov. 13. Jets CB Sauce Gardner aggravated a hamstring injury in the first half and was ruled out in the third quarter. Jets: Close the season hosting the Miami Dolphins.

Suchir Balaji, a former OpenAI engineer and whistleblower who helped train the artificial intelligence systems behind ChatGPT and later said he believed those practices violated copyright law, has died, according to his parents and San Francisco officials. He was 26. Balaji worked at OpenAI for nearly four years before quitting in August. He was well-regarded by colleagues at the San Francisco company, where a co-founder this week called him one of OpenAI’s strongest contributors who was essential to developing some of its products. “We are devastated to learn of this incredibly sad news and our hearts go out to Suchir’s loved ones during this difficult time,” said a statement from OpenAI. Balaji was found dead in his San Francisco apartment on Nov. 26 in what police said “appeared to be a suicide. No evidence of foul play was found during the initial investigation.” The city’s chief medical examiner’s office confirmed the manner of death to be suicide. His parents Poornima Ramarao and Balaji Ramamurthy said they are still seeking answers, describing their son as a “happy, smart and brave young man” who loved to hike and recently returned from a trip with friends. Balaji grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and first arrived at the fledgling AI research lab for a 2018 summer internship while studying computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. He returned a few years later to work at OpenAI, where one of his first projects, called WebGPT, helped pave the way for ChatGPT. “Suchir’s contributions to this project were essential, and it wouldn’t have succeeded without him,” said OpenAI co-founder John Schulman in a social media post memorializing Balaji. Schulman, who recruited Balaji to his team, said what made him such an exceptional engineer and scientist was his attention to detail and ability to notice subtle bugs or logical errors. “He had a knack for finding simple solutions and writing elegant code that worked,” Schulman wrote. “He’d think through the details of things carefully and rigorously.” Balaji later shifted to organizing the huge datasets of online writings and other media used to train GPT-4, the fourth generation of OpenAI’s flagship large language model and a basis for the company’s famous chatbot. It was that work that eventually caused Balaji to question the technology he helped build, especially after newspapers, novelists and others began suing OpenAI and other AI companies for copyright infringement. He first raised his concerns with The New York Times, which reported them in an October profile of Balaji . He later told The Associated Press he would “try to testify” in the strongest copyright infringement cases and considered a lawsuit brought by The New York Times last year to be the “most serious.” Times lawyers named him in a Nov. 18 court filing as someone who might have “unique and relevant documents” supporting allegations of OpenAI’s willful copyright infringement. His records were also sought by lawyers in a separate case brought by book authors including the comedian Sarah Silverman, according to a court filing. “It doesn’t feel right to be training on people’s data and then competing with them in the marketplace,” Balaji told the AP in late October. “I don’t think you should be able to do that. I don’t think you are able to do that legally.” He told the AP that he gradually grew more disillusioned with OpenAI, especially after the internal turmoil that led its board of directors to fire and then rehire CEO Sam Altman last year. Balaji said he was broadly concerned about how its commercial products were rolling out, including their propensity for spouting false information known as hallucinations. But of the “bag of issues” he was concerned about, he said he was focusing on copyright as the one it was “actually possible to do something about.” He acknowledged that it was an unpopular opinion within the AI research community, which is accustomed to pulling data from the internet, but said “they will have to change and it’s a matter of time.” He had not been deposed and it’s unclear to what extent his revelations will be admitted as evidence in any legal cases after his death. He also published a personal blog post with his opinions about the topic. Schulman, who resigned from OpenAI in August, said he and Balaji coincidentally left on the same day and celebrated with fellow colleagues that night with dinner and drinks at a San Francisco bar. Another of Balaji’s mentors, co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, had left OpenAI several months earlier , which Balaji saw as another impetus to leave. Schulman said Balaji had told him earlier this year of his plans to leave OpenAI and that Balaji didn’t think that better-than-human AI known as artificial general intelligence “was right around the corner, like the rest of the company seemed to believe.” The younger engineer expressed interest in getting a doctorate and exploring “some more off-the-beaten path ideas about how to build intelligence,” Schulman said. Balaji’s family said a memorial is being planned for later this month at the India Community Center in Milpitas, California, not far from his hometown of Cupertino. —————- EDITOR’S NOTE — This story includes discussion of suicide.

Quarterback suffered a "little” lateral ankle sprain in the , but the injury is not expected to affect his preparation for Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, coach Sean McVay said Monday. “Nothing that’s going to change his weekly rhythm as far as practice,” McVay said during a video conference, adding that Stafford ran Monday as part of the team’s day-after lifting program. “Got it banged up a little bit. He’s tough. He pushes through and he should be good to go.” Stafford was injured during the second quarter of Sunday’s 21-14 victory in New Orleans when he was taken to the ground while throwing an incomplete pass. Stafford limped immediately after the play but stayed in the game and passed for two second-half touchdowns. “I need to be faster,” he joked afterward, “and get away from those guys.” Receiver , who caught a touchdown pass, suffered a hand avulsion, but with a protective pad he should be ready to play against the Bills, McVay said. Also on Monday, the Rams moved to bolster their secondary by claiming cornerback Emmanuel Forbes Jr. off waivers from the Washington Commanders. Forbes, 23, was the 16th player chosen in the 2023 draft out of Mississippi State. As a rookie under former coach Ron Rivera, Forbes started six games and intercepted one pass. This season, under new coach Dan Quinn, Forbes played in six games and intercepted one pass. The Rams were familiar with Forbes from pre-draft evaluations and NFL game tape, McVay said. Forbes, 6 feet and 180 pounds, showed versatility, competitive toughness and ball skills, McVay said. To make room for Forbes, waived cornerback Charles Woods. Forbes is now part of a cornerback group that includes Darious Williams, Cobie Durant, Ahkello Witherspoon and Josh Wallace.

Nissan and Honda to attempt a merger that would create the world's No. 3 automaker TOKYO (AP) — Japanese automakers Nissan and Honda have announced plans to work toward a merger that would catapult them to a top position in an industry in the midst of tectonic shifts as it transitions away from its reliance on fossil fuels. The two companies said they signed an agreement on integrating their businesses on Monday. Smaller Nissan alliance member Mitsubishi Motors agreed to join the talks. News of a possible merger surfaced earlier this month. Japanese automakers face a strong challenge from their Chinese rivals and Tesla as they make inroads into markets at home and abroad. What a merger between Nissan and Honda means for the automakers and the industry BANGKOK (AP) — Japanese automakers Honda and Nissan will attempt to merge and create the world’s third-largest automaker by sales as the industry undergoes dramatic changes in its transition away from fossil fuels. The two companies said they had signed a memorandum of understanding on Monday and that smaller Nissan alliance member Mitsubishi Motors also had agreed to join the talks on integrating their businesses. Honda will initially lead the new management, retaining the principles and brands of each company. Following is a quick look at what a combined Honda and Nissan would mean for the companies, and for the auto industry. Nordstrom to be acquired by Nordstrom family and a Mexican retail group in $6.25 billion deal Century-old department store Nordstrom has agreed to be acquired and taken private by Nordstrom family members and a Mexican retail group in a $6.25 billion deal. Nordstrom shareholders will receive $24.25 in cash for each share of Nordstrom common stock, representing a 42% premium on the company’s stock as of March 18. Nordstrom’s board of directors unanimously approved the the proposed transaction, while Erik and Pete Nordstrom — part of the Nordstrom family taking over the company — recused themselves from voting. Following the close of the transaction, the Nordstrom Family will have a majority ownership stake in the company. An analyst looks ahead to how the US economy might fare under Trump WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump won a return to the White House in part by promising big changes in economic policy — more tax cuts, huge tariffs on imports, mass deportations of immigrants working in the United States illegally. In some ways, his victory marked a repudiation of President Joe Biden’s economic stewardship and a protest against inflation. It came despite low unemployment and steady growth under the Biden administration. What lies ahead for the economy under Trump? Paul Ashworth of Capital Economics spoke recently to The Associated Press. The interview has been edited for length and clarity. American consumers feeling less confident in December, Conference Board says American consumers are feeling less confident in December, a business research group says. The Conference Board said Monday that its consumer confidence index fell back in December to 104.7 from 112.8 in November. Consumers had been feeling increasingly confident in recent months. The consumer confidence index measures both Americans’ assessment of current economic conditions and their outlook for the next six months. The measure of Americans’ short-term expectations for income, business and the job market tumbled more than a dozen points to 81.1. The Conference Board says a reading under 80 can signal a potential recession in the near future.

The internet is rife with fake reviews. Will AI make it worse? Researchers and watchdog groups say the emergence of generative artificial intelligence tools that allow people to efficiently produce detailed and novel online reviews has put merchants, service providers and consumers in uncharted territory. Phony reviews have long plagued many popular consumer websites, such as Amazon and Yelp. But AI-infused text generation tools enable fraudsters to produce reviews faster and in greater volume, according to tech industry experts. The deceptive practice is illegal in the U.S. and becomes a bigger problem for consumers during the holiday shopping season, when many people rely on reviews to buy gifts. A tech company and watchdog group that uses software to detect fake reviews says AI-generated reviews have multiplied. Romanian lawmakers narrowly approve new pro-European coalition during period of political turmoil BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romanian lawmakers have voted narrowly in favor of a new pro-European coalition government led by incumbent Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu. The move on Monday could usher in an end to a protracted political crisis in the European Union country following the annulment of a presidential election. Parliament approved the new administration in a 240-143 vote in the 466-seat legislature. The new coalition is made up of the leftist Social Democratic Party, the center-right National Liberal Party, the small ethnic Hungarian UDMR party and national minorities. President Klaus Iohannis swore in the new government on Monday night. Government regulators close investigation into Ford Focus recalls Government safety regulators are closing an investigation into two previous recalls of the Ford Focus after determining that Ford Motor Co. has satisfied its concerns. Ford recalled around 1.5 million Ford Focus sedans from the 2012-2018 model years in 2018 because they could lose power. The issue was a malfunctioning canister purge valve and software that didn’t adequately detect when it was stuck open. Ford fixed the software in two separate recalls, but after cars continued to stall, the government opened an inquiry last year. Earlier this fall, Ford offered to replace the canister purge valve on all of the vehicles, satisfying regulators' concerns. AI will eavesdrop on world's wildest places to track and help protect endangered wildlife PUERTO JIMÉNEZ, Costa Rica (AP) — A biologist hid 350 audio monitors across Costa Rica’s tropical rainforests to spy on endangered spider monkeys in order to help protect them. But she had to go back to collect the data and feed those sounds into artificial intelligence systems that can recognize monkey calls. Now tech giant Microsoft's philanthropic arm is hoping to supercharge AI-assisted wildlife research with new solar-powered devices that can capture sounds, images and other wilderness data for a year or more without human intervention. Researchers say more AI wildlife surveillance is urgently needed to monitor the health of species at risk of extinction.

Instagram may seem like the perfect app for staying connected, but it's not all pretty filters and viral memes. The platform comes with hidden pitfalls that could affect your mental health, privacy, and even your wallet. Behind the glossy filters and endless scrolling lies a darker reality. It's more than a social media platform; it is a powerful tool designed to grab your attention, harvest your data, and keep you coming back for more. Instagram is one of the world's leading and most popular social media applications, so it can be difficult to avoid using it altogether, even when there are apparent signs you need to. Though it's true that Instagram has instituted some safeguards and settings to improve your experience, many fail to address the root causes of its negative impacts. Some of these problems may be obvious, such as privacy and security issues. Others, however, may not be apparent and could leave you dumbfounded. With that in mind, here are 10 unsettling reasons why you might want to avoid Instagram. Starting off with what is probably the most obvious no-no about Instagram: privacy. It is not an exaggeration to say Instagram knows more about you than your best friend does. Using the app isn't just about sharing media with friends. You, in the process, hand over a goldmine of personal data to a company that profits from knowing everything about you. When you use Instagram, you leave a digital footprint that it collects through geofencing, tracking cookies, cross-site tracking, and so on. Every time you like a post, tag a location, or even pause a video, the app collects data. It tracks your interests, shopping habits, and even your exact whereabouts. As if that isn't unsettling enough, all this information doesn't just sit there — it is instead used to target you with ads and is then sold to third parties. Instagram offers some settings to help you hide your activity and protect yourself from identity theft and data mining, such as using strong passwords and enabling two-factor authentication. However, these measures only affect the user-facing aspects, as what happens behind the scenes is still mostly out of your control. Instagram decides what you see, not you. Its algorithm prioritizes posts that keep you glued to the app, not the ones you actually care about. That's why your best friend's update gets buried under a meme you saw three times already. The algorithm feeds you content based on what's most likely to make you scroll longer, not what necessarily adds value to your day. And don't think you're seeing the real world because Instagram carefully curates your feed to push trends, ads, and influencers. The result is that you lose control of your own experience, and Instagram stays in charge of what grabs your attention. The algorithm isn't particular to any one user. In fact, Instagram uses a different algorithm for your feed, the explore page, and even the reels section. What you see on your explore page is influenced by how you interact with posts and accounts as well as other accounts who you share similar interactions with. The more likely the algorithm thinks you are to engage with a post, the more often you'll see similar content. Algorithm curation can feel restrictive, keeping you closed off from content outside the app's assumptions about your preferences. One way to get around it is by hiding or turning off suggested posts on your feed . Meta recently introduced a feature to reset your algorithm altogether, though its effectiveness remains to be seen. Instagram is a marketplace. It feels less like a social app and more like a nonstop ad reel. Sponsored posts pop up between every few photos, reels push products you've barely thought about, and even stories are packed with "Swipe Up to Buy" links. Ads aren't just annoying; they're hyper-targeted. As stated earlier, Instagram watches your activity to figure out what you're most likely to click on. It then floods your feed with those ads so that browsing starts to feel like a shopping trip you didn't sign up for. It's overwhelming, distracting, and makes you question whether the app is about connecting with people or just selling to you constantly. Ads can ruin your experience on any site or application, and Instagram is no different. In recent years, there has been a tremendous increase in the number of ads shown on our feeds. Even when you adjust your ad preferences , it doesn't translate into fewer ads; you'll just see fewer of the ads you don't want to see. Hiding ads individually, reporting them, or blocking certain brands does not seem to help much. It feels like we are stuck with the whims and caprices of the profit-centric app, which feels less and less like it has our best interests at heart. Instagram is a sneaky time thief. You open the app to check one thing, and suddenly, an hour is gone. Many of us are guilty of spending countless productive hours on the app. Studies show that with over 4 billion social media users globally, the average person spends about two and a half hours on social media daily. A large chunk of those hours goes to Instagram, which is second only to TikTok. And there are also ways to check how much time you actually spend on the app if you're in doubt. Endless scrolling, captivating reels, and curated feeds are designed to keep us hooked. The algorithm knows exactly how to hold your attention, feeding you content that's impossible to resist. Before you know it, you've lost valuable time you could've spent being productive, relaxing, or connecting with people in real life. It's not just a few minutes here and there. It's hours that add up fast. Instagram doesn't just take your time; it takes your focus and leaves you wondering where the day went. This can be especially unsettling when you consider all the things you could have been doing instead. From missed deadlines to chores you've procrastinated and even sleep you've deprived yourself of, Instagram is culpable, and you might be better off without it, even if temporarily. Another major unsettling truth about Instagram is that it can mess with how you see yourself. Perfect selfies, fitness models, and glowing vacation shots flood your feed, making it hard not to compare. Whether we like it or not, we are in an age where social standards, values, and norms are passed on through social media. This constant exposure can hit your self-esteem hard, making you overly critical of your appearance. Over time, Instagram stops being fun and starts feeling like a mirror reflecting what you think you lack. It's a toxic cycle that's tough to escape. The problem is most of it isn't real, as filters, angles, and editing apps create impossible standards, leaving you feeling like you don't measure up. Even influencers struggle to keep up with their own curated image. People present a highly selective version of themselves. This explains why there have been so many scandals and revelations of their true personality that are contrary to what they have portrayed. The body image problem is rampant among teenage girls who are still forming and growing confidence in their bodies. The other side of the body image problem is that it pushes people to move away from their real selves and focus on the image they present online. This often leads to missing out on truly living their lives, as they prioritize capturing every moment for likes, shares, or follows. This toxic cycle can make Instagram less enjoyable and more damaging to your mental health. Closely related to the body image issue on Instagram is cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is and has been one of the platform's major challenges, often hiding in plain sight. Anonymous accounts, cruel DMs, and public trolling can make Instagram a toxic space for many users. Even subtle jabs, like exclusion from group photos or passive-aggressive comments, can sting. The platform's design makes it easy for negativity to spread, and reporting features often feel like a dead end. For those targeted, the constant harassment follows them wherever they go, right in their pocket. Instagram's pretty filters can't hide the ugly reality of how damaging online bullying can be. For years, Meta has consistently come under attack for its failure to improve in-app safety measures against cyberbullies. Cyberbullying saw an outbreak in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, even celebrities, including soccer players, have been subject to insults and abuse. This has led some to even deactivate their accounts. Instagram has instituted certain measures to help combat cyberbullying, such as reporting, blocking, and restricting comments. It has also incorporated AI technology to identify and remove harmful comments and posts. In spite of these efforts, there is still some way to go in ensuring Instagram is a safe, healthy, and non-toxic platform that promotes its users' mental health. Speaking of mental health, Instagram isn't as harmless as it looks when it comes to your mental well-being. Sure, we all need to use social media to connect with friends, loved ones, and celebrities we admire. However, with these benefits come significant disadvantages that play a crucial role in our overall wellness. One such issue is addiction. Social media addiction is the massive elephant in a room called the digital age. Many people are hooked on these platforms, including Instagram, without even realizing it. Studies have linked heavy Instagram use to depression, sleep issues, and even body image struggles. An active social media lifestyle can also encourage isolation, which often results in anxiety and depression if left unchecked. Scrolling through picture-perfect lives can leave you feeling like you're falling short. The constant comparison to influencers, friends, or even strangers creates anxiety, low self-esteem, and a nagging sense of fear of missing out. Photos aside, the notifications, likes, and comments keep you chasing validation, turning the app into a source of stress instead of joy. In fact, mental health concerns were the primary reason Instagram introduced a feature allowing users to hide likes on their posts . The app may look fun, but its impact on your mental well-being can be anything but. So, sometimes you need to take a step back and maybe even delete it to relate with people and yourself in a much healthier way. Instagram is also a hotspot for catfishers and scammers. Fake profiles with stolen photos are often disguised to trick people into falling for emotional or financial traps. One moment, you're chatting with someone who seems genuine, and the next, you're caught in a scam. Phishing schemes are particularly dangerous. This is when scammers send DMs using bogus pages to steal your credentials. Even giveaways and supposed influencer partnerships can be elaborate cons. Here, an account with many made-up followers and bots may convince you that you've won some sort of prize, only to use it as a ploy to obtain sensitive data. Scammers may also pretend to be influencers offering fake promotions. There are many other scams on Instagram, including fake job offers, music promotions, sponsorship scams, crypto scams, investment scams, and fake product sales. Instagram's lax verification process makes spotting these traps tough. A good rule of thumb is to avoid sharing certain things on social media . Catfishing and scams are never a good experience, so if you've been a victim of one, chances are it has affected your ability to trust Instagram sources. The important thing is to ensure you observe safety protocols and avoid exposing your private data. Instagram isn't just full of people. It's crawling with bots. When we talk about bots, we're referring to automated programs that can mimic human behavior on the app. They run fake accounts that like your posts, follow you, and even slide into your DMs with spam messages. They might promise followers, sell sketchy products, or push scams disguised as brand deals. At first, bots appear harmless, but they ruin the authenticity of the platform. You're left questioning whether a new follower is a real person or just another bot clogging your feed. Worse still, bots inflate engagement stats, making it harder to tell what's genuine. There are many ways to safeguard your account from these bots. We've gone over most of these, such as not exposing sensitive data and reporting suspicious or abusive accounts. You can also guard against bots by growing your followers organically, as many of these bots infiltrate your account when you try to buy followers. Another way to easily spot bots is through their spammy messages, generic comments, and awkward usernames. If you think you control your profile, think again. Instagram loves to play referee with your content, but its rules often feel inconsistent. Sometimes, posts are flagged or taken down without clear explanations as to why. Creators, especially smaller ones, struggle to stay visible while navigating unclear guidelines. Meanwhile, controversial or harmful content can still go unchecked. The platform decides what's acceptable, and its biases can silence important conversations or artistic expressions. Instagram's content censorship is especially apparent when it comes to political topics. It claims to limit political content because such posts can harm the user experience. Mark Zuckerberg confirmed this back in 2021, stating that the app aimed to reduce instances of misinformation to its barest minimum. While this goal has been partially achieved, it seems the censorship has gone overboard. Creators often complain about harmless posts being taken down for censorship reasons. It doesn't just stop there – users can also experience shadowbanning, which limits the reach of their other posts. Censorship is vital for keeping you safe and accurately informed. But Instagram has not struck the right balance between doing that and encouraging freedom of expression. Your account should feel like yours, even though it's on Instagram's platform. These are all reasons you might want to rethink how much you engage with Instagram — or avoid it entirely.Joint Seminar on Customs Regulation between Myanmar and Eurasian Economic Commission held

Unsettling Reasons Why You Might Want To Avoid Using Instagram

Suchir Balaji, a former OpenAI engineer and whistleblower who helped train the artificial intelligence systems behind ChatGPT and later said he believed those practices violated copyright law, has died, according to his parents and San Francisco officials. He was 26. Balaji worked at OpenAI for nearly four years before quitting in August. He was well-regarded by colleagues at the San Francisco company, where a co-founder this week called him one of OpenAI's strongest contributors who was essential to developing some of its products. “We are devastated to learn of this incredibly sad news and our hearts go out to Suchir’s loved ones during this difficult time,” said a statement from OpenAI. Balaji was found dead in his San Francisco apartment on Nov. 26 in what police said “appeared to be a suicide. No evidence of foul play was found during the initial investigation.” The city's chief medical examiner's office confirmed the manner of death to be suicide. His parents Poornima Ramarao and Balaji Ramamurthy said they are still seeking answers, describing their son as a “happy, smart and brave young man” who loved to hike and recently returned from a trip with friends. Balaji grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and first arrived at the fledgling AI research lab for a 2018 summer internship while studying computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. He returned a few years later to work at OpenAI, where one of his first projects, called WebGPT, helped pave the way for ChatGPT. “Suchir’s contributions to this project were essential, and it wouldn’t have succeeded without him,” said OpenAI co-founder John Schulman in a social media post memorializing Balaji. Schulman, who recruited Balaji to his team, said what made him such an exceptional engineer and scientist was his attention to detail and ability to notice subtle bugs or logical errors. “He had a knack for finding simple solutions and writing elegant code that worked,” Schulman wrote. “He’d think through the details of things carefully and rigorously.” Balaji later shifted to organizing the huge datasets of online writings and other media used to train GPT-4, the fourth generation of OpenAI's flagship large language model and a basis for the company's famous chatbot. It was that work that eventually caused Balaji to question the technology he helped build, especially after newspapers, novelists and others began suing OpenAI and other AI companies for copyright infringement. He first raised his concerns with The New York Times, which reported them in an October profile of Balaji . He later told The Associated Press he would “try to testify” in the strongest copyright infringement cases and considered a lawsuit brought by The New York Times last year to be the “most serious.” Times lawyers named him in a Nov. 18 court filing as someone who might have “unique and relevant documents” supporting allegations of OpenAI's willful copyright infringement. His records were also sought by lawyers in a separate case brought by book authors including the comedian Sarah Silverman, according to a court filing. “It doesn’t feel right to be training on people’s data and then competing with them in the marketplace,” Balaji told the AP in late October. “I don’t think you should be able to do that. I don’t think you are able to do that legally.” He told the AP that he gradually grew more disillusioned with OpenAI, especially after the internal turmoil that led its board of directors to fire and then rehire CEO Sam Altman last year. Balaji said he was broadly concerned about how its commercial products were rolling out, including their propensity for spouting false information known as hallucinations. But of the “bag of issues” he was concerned about, he said he was focusing on copyright as the one it was “actually possible to do something about.” He acknowledged that it was an unpopular opinion within the AI research community, which is accustomed to pulling data from the internet, but said “they will have to change and it’s a matter of time.” He had not been deposed and it’s unclear to what extent his revelations will be admitted as evidence in any legal cases after his death. He also published a personal blog post with his opinions about the topic. Schulman, who resigned from OpenAI in August, said he and Balaji coincidentally left on the same day and celebrated with fellow colleagues that night with dinner and drinks at a San Francisco bar. Another of Balaji’s mentors, co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, had left OpenAI several months earlier , which Balaji saw as another impetus to leave. Schulman said Balaji had told him earlier this year of his plans to leave OpenAI and that Balaji didn't think that better-than-human AI known as artificial general intelligence “was right around the corner, like the rest of the company seemed to believe.” The younger engineer expressed interest in getting a doctorate and exploring “some more off-the-beaten path ideas about how to build intelligence,” Schulman said. Balaji's family said a memorial is being planned for later this month at the India Community Center in Milpitas, California, not far from his hometown of Cupertino. —————- EDITOR’S NOTE — This story includes discussion of suicide.
