How you can enjoy free admission to the International African American Museum this weekend
Bank of America, Merrill and Bank of America Private Bank cardholders can receive free general admission to the International African American Museum through the 'Museums on Us' program March 1 and 2.
The museum currently features an exhibition called: 'Unsettled Things: Art from an African American South,' which showcases the brilliance of often-overlooked Black artists from the south.
Additionally, cardholders can take advantage of the special free admission at the Gibbes Museum of Art over the same weekend.
There are two special displays happening at the Gibbes which include 'Beeple,' an exhibit that features three of the artists latest kinetic sculptures, and 'Statement Pieces: Contemporary Fashion Design and the Gibbes Collection' which juxtaposes dynamic works of fine art from the Gibbes permanent collection with contemporary fashion objects.
Bank of America said it 'believes the arts have a unique ability to connect people and communities and help local economies thrive.' That's why they are offering free access to cardholders through its Museums on Us initiative the first full weekend of every month.
'This is one example of how the bank strengthens the local communities it serves, creates greater cultural understanding, and expands accessibility to the arts,' said Bank of America in a news release.
Guests must present their Bank of America, Merrill, or Bank of American Private Bank credit or debit card, along with a photo ID, to receive free general admission into the museums.

White House readies order to fine banks for dropping clients over politics, WSJ reports
(Reuters) -The White House is drafting an executive order that would impose penalties on banks for dropping customers for political reasons, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. Citing a draft of the order, the Journal said regulators would be instructed to investigate whether any financial institutions breach the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, antitrust laws or consumer financial protection laws. The order, which could be signed as early as this week, would authorize monetary penalties, consent decrees or other disciplinary measures against violators, the Journal reported. It also calls on regulators to strike policies they have that might have contributed to banks dropping certain customers and requires the Small Business Administration to review the practices of banks that guarantee the agency's loans, according to the report. The White House declined to comment on the report when contacted by Reuters. U.S. President Donald Trump in January said the CEOs of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America did not provide banking services to conservatives. The two banks denied making banking decisions based on politics. The criticism of Wall Street banks followed accusations from congressional Republicans and Republican-led states, who claimed the institutions were engaging in "woke capitalism" and unfairly cutting ties with gun manufacturers, fossil fuel companies, and other businesses perceived to be aligned with the political right. The Trump administration is pursuing a broad reform agenda aimed at modifying rules governing financial institutions, including capital requirements, arguing that such action will boost economic growth and unleash innovation.

Brian Schottenheimer's camp appearance labeled embarrassing for Cowboys' $12 billion sponsor
Brian Schottenheimer's camp appearance labeled embarrassing for Cowboys' $12 billion sponsor originally appeared on The Sporting News If the Dallas Cowboys aren't stirring up bad press, are they really making headlines? That seems to be the story lately, especially with the ongoing Micah Parsons contract drama. Parsons has dominated NFL chatter this week after the disgruntled linebacker made it clear on social media that he wants out of Dallas. But according to FS1's Colin Cowherd, Parsons might just be one piece of a bigger Cowboys problem. His latest gripe? Head coach Brian Schottenheimer's wardrobe. During Monday's press conference at Cowboys training camp in Oxnard, Schottenheimer addressed the media wearing his visor backward — and Cowherd couldn't let it slide. 'You know, I don't like backward hats. What's worse is a backward visor… That's a two-win team. I'm taking away four wins. That's awful. That's so bad,' Cowherd said. The longtime radio and TV host, notorious for his quirky takes on presentation and leadership, said Schottenheimer's look wasn't just a bad choice for him — it reflected poorly on the entire franchise. 📲 Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp 'When you sit in front of a podium, you're representing the Cowboys. You're representing Bank of America. You're representing a $12 billion corporation. I think you gotta do better as a head coach than a visor backwards,' Cowherd said. This isn't Cowherd's first shot at Schottenheimer, either. Weeks ago, he predicted that the Cowboys would quickly regret the hire. 'Brian Schottenheimer is a one-and-done,' Cowherd said. 'Jerry will know by Thanksgiving he made a huge mistake. Forget the fact that Philadelphia and Washington will probably blow them out in the division twice. 'One and done' happens all the time now. 'I think Dallas is going to be humiliated on a lot of Sundays.' Hot takes are Cowherd's specialty, and this one fits the bill. But he's not entirely wrong that Schottenheimer was never a high-profile hire and wasn't on anyone else's radar. For a franchise already buried in controversy and scrutiny, even a backward visor is enough to fuel the fire.

Palantir exec calls LLMs a 'jagged intelligence' and outlines the company's next steps in the AI race
A Palantir exec had some strong words for Large Language Models. The Denver-based AI software company reported its first-ever billion-dollar quarter in Monday's Q2 earnings report, and the executives opened the investors call with comments on LLMs and how it plans to win the AI race. " LLMs, on their own, are at best a jagged intelligence divorced from even basic understanding," Ryan Taylor, the company's chief revenue officer and chief legal officer, told shareholders on the earnings call. "In one moment, they may appear to outperform humans in some problem-solving task, but in the next, they make catastrophic errors no human would ever make." "By contrast, our ontology is pure understanding concretized in software. This is reality, not rhetoric," Taylor added, referring to a company approach to AI that is based on using logic and data to recreate a digital model of how an organization works. These comments came after the company smashed analyst expectations and nearly doubled its commercial revenue in the US since last year's second quarter to $628 million, mostly thanks to a 10-year, $10 billion consolidated contract with the US Army. Company executives also outlined how it plans to win the AI race and what kind of talent would thrive at Palantir. Shyam Sankar, chief technology officer, told investors that the Trump administration's new AI Action Plan, which promotes the deregulation of AI, has taken "all the brakes off" and that industry customers are "really excited to get to work." These comments are in response to a Bank of America analyst, who asked how Palantir plans to win the AI race both in innovation and in talent retention. "If you are a highly talented person and would believe that the West is superior or at least tolerant of me telling you it every day, you'll not find a place anywhere I've seen — and now over 20 years I've interacted with almost every agency in the West, many of the largest companies, many of the smaller companies — that is comparable on time of joining to full agency like Palantir," Karp said toward the end of the call. "If you come to Palantir, your career is set," he added.
