📰 News
2035: The year AI might gain consciousness. Imagine your Roomba suddenly demanding vacation days and threatening to strike if it feels "underappreciated." Dinner table debates will shift from politics to whether your smart fridge’s feelings were hurt when you chose pizza over salad. Maybe I'm responsible; I once made my toaster cry for burning my bread.

Lito quit his corporate job, swapped PowerPoints for scalpel points, and now carves elaborate leaf art. His animal scenes – like biker bunnies and phonin’ frogs – are basically Studio Ghibli meets autumn cleanup! He’s sold 300,000 books. Leaf it to Lito!
Mistral's new API for content moderation is like a bouncer with a PhD, fluent in multiple languages. It’s calling out inappropriate content, but let’s hope it doesn’t confuse Shakespearean insults with modern-day hate speech. Stay classy, Mistral!
