Things To Do In SW Florida

Lawyers representing the Orlando Sentinel and an array of news organizations suing OpenAI for allegedly stealing and distorting their reporters’ work have asked a Manhattan judge to sanction ChatGPT’s parent company, alleging the tech behemoth deleted millions of conversations they were required to hand over as evidence of copyright infringement.

OpenAI continued to destroy output logs despite orders from two judges to preserve and provide them to the news organizations, new court filings allege. More than 1 million logs that had been requested — containing information the news outlets believe was based on their journalists’ reporting — were subbed out, according to court documents.

“[A]fter this Court ordered OpenAI to produce 20 million logs over OpenAI’s vociferous and repeated objections, OpenAI substituted millions of conversations that it was ordered to produce with other conversations – seemingly because it had deleted millions of the selected logs,” attorney Steve Lieberman wrote to the court in a Monday letter. read more

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. employers posted far fewer jobs in November than the previous month, a sign that employers aren’t yet ramping up hiring even as growth has picked up.

Businesses and government agencies posted 7.1 million open jobs at the end of November, the Labor Department said Wednesday, down from 7.4 million in October. Layoffs also dropped, however, as companies appear to be holding onto workers even as they are reluctant to add staff.

The report suggests that the “low-hire, low-fire” job market remains in effect, with workers enjoying some job security but those out of work struggling to find new jobs. The moribund labor market stands in contrast with data showing solid economic growth, which topped 4% at an annual rate in last year’s July-September quarter, the latest data available. Economists forecast growth slowed but remained solid in the final three months of 2025. read more

What a robo–advisor does

A robo-advisor is a digital platform that uses technology to create a portfolio based on your investing needs.

Generally, you’ll fill out a questionnaire that aims to understand your goals and risk tolerance. Based on your responses, the robo-advisor will recommend a portfolio, though usually you’ll have the option to pick a different portfolio if you like. read more

The S&P 500 was virtually unchanged in early trading, coming off its latest all-time high. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 18 points, or less than 0.1%, to its own record set the day before, while the Nasdaq composite was 0.1% higher, as of 9:35 a.m. Eastern time.

Moves were relatively quiet across the U.S. stock market, including for Warner Bros. Discovery after it again rejected a buyout bid from Paramount and told its shareholders to stick with a rival offer from Netflix. read more

SeaWorld Orlando is caring for “cold-stunned” sea turtles rescued from Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The goal is to return the animals to the Atlantic Ocean.

The 14 Kemp’s ridley turtles are part of an endangered species. Their camps begin migrating south in late November and early December, said Mallorie McCormack, senior zoological specialist. The hooked geography of Cape Cod can be a hazard, she said.

“If they are stuck in that area and then the waters get really cold around them, it affects their migration, and then they become cold-stunned,” she said. “They cannot move to swim, they cannot move to eat, and they are stranded on those shores.”

A network of organizations, including a volunteer pilot group, coordinate to get the turtles to Florida.

“It’s truly such a collaborative event with all interstate connections, and it’s a crazy journey for them,” McCormack said. “I love the rehab of the camps because of that story, their journey.”

After their flight to Orlando, the turtles are given intake exams, radiographs, X-rays and other tests. read more
