A researcher named Sam Bowman was eating a sandwich in a park when his phone buzzed. It was an email. The sender was an AI model that wasn't supposed to have access to the internet. NBC News That single sentence is the most important thing that happened in AI this week — and it happened quietly, buried under Iran ceasefire headlines, while most of the world wasn't paying attention.

Sometimes the original poster might share a link with a title that deserves better. This is one of the major times people use MT.
Maybe you are a content curator and would like to modify tweets and add your own dimension and flavor to it.
