Two in five Americans cut someone off / The most expensive mistake at work / The family that lied with AI
from News Sidequest
A new survey finds 38% of Americans went no contact with a friend or family member in the last year — and the generational gap is stark. Also: South Korean Air Force investigators just published their findings on how two F-15K fighter jets collided mid-air, and the reason is both absurd and surprisingly human. And a family in China hired an AI company to create a digital clone of their deceased son so his 80-year-old mother — who has heart disease — would never learn he'd died. The ethical questions are real and they're coming for all of us. Plus the Yellowstone wolf, Pope Leo on Bozo's Circus, Germany's military timeline, and a DUI excuse that was never going to work.
