1 Corinthians 14:34-35, where he says:

“The women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the law also says. If there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.”

OpenAI has published a report claiming that China-based ChatGPT users asked the chatbot for ways to influence Americans' opinions of data centers in the US. But the campaigns had little to no effect, and it's not as if people's opinions needed much swaying, anyway.

OpenAI writes that the now-banned accounts were "supporting covert influence operations that promoted narratives in an attempt to manipulate a legitimate debate about American AI and wider tech policies."

The first cluster of these accounts generated social media comments and images "claiming" that data center buildouts for AI were increasing electricity prices for average families. OpenAI has named this cluster the "Data Center Bandwagon" campaign.

From late 2025 to early 2026, the accounts asked ChatGPT to generate English-language short comments and images about data centers and AI applications increasing electricity demand and causing higher costs for ordinary Americans.

The accounts often created comic strips about data centers. The AI was also used to add text to generic electricity marketing images suggesting that citizens were subsidizing AI infrastructure.

This content was then posted on social media platforms by accounts posing as Americans from different backgrounds.

OpenAI does not allow its models to be accessed from China, so it's assumed a VPN was used in these cases. The company says the accounts were likely part of a social media operations team at a private Chinese technology company conducting work for provincial-level government clients.

The operators also uploaded a separate report to ChatGPT describing their objectives and strategies for influencing public opinion and creating social media accounts designed to evade platform detection systems.

OpenAI identified a second cluster of accounts that had used ChatGPT to generate content criticizing US tariffs and tech policies. A common theme was US-China technological competition, claiming the US was seeking technological dominance and rule-making power while backstabbing allies. The accounts specified that China's leader Xi Jinping not be included in the generated content.

OpenAI says the campaigns had little impact, though it's not as if data centers had a huge amount of support to begin with. A report last week found that 71% of Americans now oppose these facilities being built near their homes, up from 42% just nine months ago.

When discussing rising electricity prices, the report says the accounts "claimed" this was the case. But it really is happening, as noted by Bloomberg, which found that prices have risen by up to 267% in areas near data centers.

BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - A man believe to be on drugs is locked up on a slew of charges after leading police on a dangerous chase with his 9-year-old son in the vehicle Saturday night, according to investigators.

The Baton Rouge Police Department reported Gad Black, 30, of Baton Rouge, led officers on a chase from Baton Rouge to Baker.

According to the probable cause report, Black was driving carelessly and playing loud music with the windows down around 8:15 p.m. The document stated a police officer tried to pull him over, but he sped off. Officials said Black went off the road, swerved into oncoming traffic, drove against traffic, ran red lights and hit another vehicle on purpose. They added he was pursued by police cars and a police helicopter.

"The defendant was swerving back and forth across lanes, playing loud music and dancing wildly inside the vehicle," the report stated. "The defendant also hung outside the window and would flip his middle finger."

Investigators reported Black swerved across two lanes and tried to hit two marked police cars in the opposite lane near Plank Road and Denham Street. They added he had a clear path between two vehicles stopped on Plank at Cannon Street, but swerved over and hit the front driver's side of a truck that had four people inside. It is believed he was trying to damage the truck to help him get away.

Police said they were able to put down spike strips and Black's vehicle eventually stopped on Thomas Road in Baker. However, they added he refused to surrender after getting out of the vehicle. They said K-9 "Tag" was after him after several tries to get him to follow police instructions. Reports indicate "Tag" grabbed Black on the ankle and the suspect started punching the dog in the head.

According to the report, when an officer tried to grab the suspect by the arms, he punched the officer in the face. It added he continued to resist and fight until several other officers tackled him to the ground and handcuffed him.

Police said Black's 9-year-old son was found in the front passenger seat curled up in a fetal position after the chase. They added the child was visibly shaken and scared.

The report also stated Black was taken to the hospital, where blood was taken for a toxicology analysis. Investigators said they suspect he was under the influence of some type of drug.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Thousands of Southern Baptists overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to advance a formal ban on women pastors in the nation’s largest Protestant denomination, sending a clear message that men alone should preach to these conservative evangelical congregations.

The amendment would tighten existing restrictions in the Southern Baptist Convention, which already has a faith statement opposing women pastors.

The vote was 6,028 to 2,026 — a 3-to-1 margin — which easily exceeded the required two-thirds majority. It will require a similar two-thirds vote at next year’s meeting to become part of the constitution.

“So, what we did was make fake cigars.”

Gianakakis’s father, John Gianakakis, told CBS Boston that he made the faux cigars using banana leafs, cigar wrappers, and chamomile.

After photos of the players at Pavilion were sent to school administrators, John said he met with Ipswich High Principal Jonathan Mitchell on Monday to explain.

“Mr. Mitchell looked me in the eye, sat me down, and said: ‘John, these kids are cleared to play,'” he told CBS Boston.
