The deepfake crisis for women and girls has grown tremendously. It isn’t mentioned in most AI discourse, even though it’s the primary use of deepfakes by far. Now, it is being used to victimize dozens of teen girls. The perpetrators include their male classmates

Transformation of travel in Paris has been rapid:
—Car traffic down 45% since 2001
—Bike use doubled since last year on major axes at peak hours
—Bike use higher than car use on many roads
This was enabled by massive installation of cycleways citywide
