  • Clickbait and switch: Nevada's prison tablet program costs inmates and families
    December 11, 2025, 8:42 AM EST. Under Nevada's prison tablet program, incarcerated people face high costs for basic internet access and entertainment, a burden largely borne by families. Despite reforms to reduce room-and-board fees, cap commissary markups, and eliminate medical debt on release, the NDOC and its telecom partner ViaPath push revenue from a captive population. Nevada's 2023 proposal outlined 28 potential tablet uses; only a few are in practice, and subscription or bulk options are missing in the 2024 regulation. Accessing music or movies costs 5 cents per minute, with payment required before any option can be explored. Other states offer bulk credits or monthly subscriptions; Nevada does not. Critics say the setup prioritizes profits over justice and fairness, leaving inmates and their families to shoulder the financial burden.
  • AI reshapes management: from task supervision to coaching and emotional leadership
    December 11, 2025, 8:40 AM EST. At Fortune Brainstorm AI in San Francisco, executives say AI agents are stripping out drudgery and redefining good management as coaching, judgment, and emotional leadership rather than task supervision. Canva's Stefano Corazza and Workday's Aashna Kircher urge using AI to empower people, not replace critical decision-making or soft skills. Leaders at BetterUp and Amazon SF Lab warn against overreliance on AI, stressing training in judgment and empathy as keys to collaboration and trust. AI is seen as universal teammates handling digital busywork, so managers can invest in higher-level thinking, team design, and relational leadership instead of screens and micromanagement.
  • Time Names The Architects of AI as 2025 Person of the Year
    December 11, 2025, 8:38 AM EST. Time magazine has named the 2025 Person of the Year as the Architects of AI, honoring those who imagined, designed, and built AI to transform society. The selection highlights AI's rapid impact, while acknowledging concerns about risks and governance. Time notes the tradition of non-human picks (PCs in 1982, Endangered Earth in 1988, "You" in 2006) and frames this year's decision as a reflection of how AI shapes news and lives for better and worse. Polls show mixed sentiment: a majority fear AI could threaten humanity, even as Gen Z leads in usage of AI chatbots such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Claude, Grok, and Meta AI, with usage far lower among older generations.
