    Jon Stewart invited Elon Musk onto the Daily Show. Musk said he'd only do it if the show would appear unedited. Stewart and the Daily Show agreed -- calling Musk's bluff. Musk has now chickened out and now refuses to go on the show.

    Odd choice by the Daily Show to talk about (and even show a bit of) the ridiculous Vivek ad... and not tell the whole story of why Amy Acton is estranged from her mother. They played the fact the mother came out against Amy as the punchline. They're usually... better than that.

    If you have 6 minutes to spare over the next few days, you need to watch #JonStewart on #TheDailyShow dissect the current #AI frenzy. Why is late-night satire examining this reality with far more critical rigor than the very institutions whose job it is to study, regulate, and safeguard the intersection of tech, politics, and society? It is striking to watch those tasked with protecting the public stand at the front of the line, ready to blindly buy whatever tech billionaires put on the shelf..
