What You Need to Know:
For the second day in a row, a mass murder took place in and around Atlanta, Georgia. The Associated Press reported, “A man recorded by a security camera fatally shooting his manager Thursday at a fast food restaurant in rural south Georgia is also suspected of killing his mother and grandmother at their nearby homes before taking his own life,” authorities said. 
Security video from a McDonald’s in Moultrie, Georgia showed 26-year-old Kentavious White shooting the store manager, 42-year-old Amia Smith, after getting her to come to the door Thursday morning, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said. The footage then showed White stepping inside the restaurant and shooting himself.

On Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris met with the CEOs of Alphabet, Anthropic, Microsoft, and OpenAI, the leading AI-developing companies, as the Biden administration rolls out a set of initiatives meant to ensure the rapidly evolving technology improves lives without putting people’s rights and safety at risk. 
The Democratic administration plans to announce an investment of $140 million to establish seven new A.I. research institutes, administration officials told reporters in previewing the effort.
In addition, the White House Office of Management and Budget is expected to issue guidance in the next few months on how federal agencies can use A.I. tools. There will also be an independent commitment by top A.I. developers to participate in a public evaluation of their systems in August at the Las Vegas hacker convention DEF CON.

Why is loss of pregnancy still such a taboo subject?
Midway through my appointment, my gynecologist went silent. Her face screwed up a little, and she announced, “I don’t hear a heartbeat.”
 
My own heartbeat stopped, too, for a second, maybe two. “What?” I managed to croak.
 
Understanding a High-Risk Pregnancy
We hear about women getting pregnant after the age of 40 all the time these days. The miracles of reproductive science are so commonplace they don’t even seem like miracles anymore. Even before the age of test-tube babies and in vitro fertilization, both my grandmothers had their last children in their early 40s. Though my maternal grandmother’s final pregnancy netted twins, I don’t think anybody ever said the words “high risk” to her.

What You Need to Know:
In a 27-12 vote, the Florida Senate passed an expansion of the law, Wednesday, that was put into effect last year in the Senate. The Republican-controlled Senate voted 27-12 with Democrats arguing the measure is an effort to “legislate away the gay.”
The Parental Rights in Education, critics dubbed ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill, will include a ban on “classroom instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity” through eighth grade. Originally, last year’s bill only went through third grade. 
What You Need to Know: 
Every day, tons of old, used clothing are thrown into landfills around the world, causing damage to the environment.
