  • Responsible AI in Courts: Problems to Solve, Questions to Ask
    November 12, 2025, 9:24 PM EST. Courts face urgent modernization but remain cautious about AI adoption due to accuracy concerns. While many courts already rely on AI in administrative systems, the shift now is toward responsible implementation that preserves justice standards. A generational leadership transition coincides with a pressing need to modernize outdated document management and filing workflows. The data show heightened caution in the legal sector: 70% worry about inaccurate AI outputs, even as 55% anticipate a transformational impact in five years and expect time savings. Barriers include staff shortages (71% foresee shortages in 12 months) and budget constraints, with only 17% having instituted AI-another 17% planning to. The path forward emphasizes AI designed for legal environments, with human oversight, transparency in reasoning, and grounding in verified sources to boost efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
  • Netflix's IP-Driven In-Person Playground Expands Its Footprint
    November 12, 2025, 9:20 PM EST. Netflix is expanding beyond streaming with Netflix House, a 100,000-square-foot, pay-to-play in-person experience in King of Prussia, PA. The venue stacks restaurant, bars, a store, theater, minigolf, VR rooms, photo ops, an escape room, and a carnival, all saturated with references to IP from shows like Emily in Paris, Wednesday, The Crown, Bridgerton and more. By making content a physical, shareable event, Netflix aims to keep top titles fresh and drive revenue as linear viewership falls. A Dallas location is planned for December and a Las Vegas site for 2027, signaling a broader push into theme parks, live events, and branded experiences as part of its strategy to outsize rivals like Disney and NBCUniversal.
  • Chevron selects West Texas for its first AI data-center power project
    November 12, 2025, 9:18 PM EST. Chevron has chosen West Texas in the Permian Basin for its first AI data-center power project, a new business line aimed at monetizing the AI boom with natural gas-fired generation. The company is in exclusive talks with the data center's unnamed end user and expects a final investment decision early next year, with operations slated for 2027. Initial capacity could reach 2,500 MW by year three and possibly expand to 5,000 MW, planned to run largely off-grid to avoid competing with local electricity supply. The effort reinforces Chevron's need to secure demand for its about 3 bcf/day gas output and follows a partnership with Engine No. 1 that led to orders for seven GE Vernova turbines. Chevron projects 14% annual free cash flow growth to $30B by 2030 with Brent at $70.
  • Will Nvidia Announce a Stock Split on Nov. 19? Not Likely, but AI Growth Persists
    November 12, 2025, 9:16 PM EST. Nvidia's stock split is unlikely on Nov. 19, despite chatter around price levels. The company has split six times in its history, most recently in 2021 and 2024, but those moves came after quarterly results and when the share price was higher than today's level. Being a member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nvidia's price must align with peers in a price-weighted index, which makes a drastic split less attractive. With a current around $194 and a track record of growth, the focus should remain on AI leadership, GPUs, and big-order momentum. Nvidia has about $300 billion in orders for the next five quarters and about $165 billion in revenue last year, underscoring upside beyond split speculation.
  • Cardinal Parolin: Protect the Dignity of Children in the Age of AI
    November 12, 2025, 9:12 PM EST. Cardinal Pietro Parolin warns at an international Rome conference that humanity risks extinction if AI and artificial life forms fail to respect human dignity. He calls for interdisciplinary and multicultural cooperation to steer technology toward true human progress. The message to participants of 'The Dignity of Children and Adolescents in the Age of Artificial Intelligence' stresses protecting the dignity of children as a central challenge for today and tomorrow. While acknowledging opportunities of science, Parolin cautions about existential and moral questions and urges discernment that informs politics, legislation, education, and social support services. He echoes Pope Francis' appeal to limit and direct technology toward a healthier, more human, and social form of progress through inclusive collaboration.
