Isleton City Council structure shaken up, meeting turns to chaos
There's political drama in the Delta, after the Isleton City Council ousted the mayor as part of a reorganization, naming a new mayor and vice mayor from within the council. Tensions were high at a chaotic meeting on Tuesday, where CBS Sacramento's camera was rolling. As the meeting went on, insults, opinions, and frustrations were shared by councilmembers, city staff, and members of the public who were in attendance in a packed city hall. Expletives were regularly thrown into comments and grievances from all sides. At the center of one of the most contested items was the now-former mayor, Iva Walton. Walton was accused of continuing to operate an outdoor dining area at her bar, Mei Wah Beer Room, after her encroachment permit was denied. At one point, Walton said: "It feels like dumping when her [councilmember Aleida Suarez] wife calls me a 'bad dog.' " Suarez responded: "You call us coffee b-----," adding, "this isn't about he said she said. This is about code of conduct." At times, other members of the public blurted out expletives as councilmembers spoke to each other, at times, outlining negative or untrue social media posts made about each other. Isleton has a $4.7 million debt, and a recent grand jury report outlined systemic issues that put the city on the brink of bankruptcy. Tuesday night, before chaos erupted, the council voted to send a letter of request to the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors requesting an $800,000 loan to address some of their immediate debts. Members of the public expressed concern amid the tense exchanges and council upheaval that the perception of their city may be impacted if they receive the county loan. "We just have to look at the future and how the person that's going to give us a loan and looks at what you guys are doing now. There's a TV camera here, there's a reporter here. How do you want to look to the public?" one speaker said. CBS Sacramento took the concerns about the impacts of the meeting to the city's acting finance director, who said on Wednesday that the city manager spent most of the day doing "damage control." "Change is going to be painful. This city has operated for one way for decades. To put them on the right path, it's going to look really rocky," said Jessica Bigby, acting finance director of Isleton. The now-mayor, David Kent, told CBS Sacramento it was good to get all of the thoughts, feelings, and opinions out in the open. "A bit of a deviation of sort of the standard session you would expect, but it was healthy and necessary in my opinion," said Kent. In a statement to CBS13, Walton said she believed the proper procedure was not followed, "and the complaints were largely personal attacks and had nothing to do with the leadership I brought to the chair/mayor council position."

Elon Musk says Google has the best shot at being the leader in AI
Elon Musk says Google "currently has the highest probability of being the leader" in AI. But that "may change in a few years," he added. Musk's comment comes as he again escalates his ongoing feud with Sam Altman and OpenAI. xAI CEO Elon Musk paid a rare compliment to his rival Google on Wednesday. "Outside of real-world AI, Google has the biggest compute (and data) advantage for now, so currently has the highest probability of being the leader," Musk wrote in an X post. But that "may change in a few years," he added. "For the foreseeable future, the major AI companies will continue to prosper, as will xAI. There is just so much to do!" Musk wrote. Musk and Google did not respond to requests for comment from Business Insider. Google has long been a mainstay in AI. In 2017, Google Research released a paper titled "Attention Is All You Need." This seminal work introduced the world to the concept of the Transformer, the technology that powers large language models like ChatGPT. The search giant has also invested in AI startups such as Anthropic and Safe Superintelligence. Google owns a 14% stake in Anthropic, a startup founded by former OpenAI employees, per legal filings obtained by The New York Times. Google has continued to make hefty investments in AI. During its second-quarter earnings call last month, the company said it was raising its capital expenditures by $10 billion this year to $85 billion. Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai, said the increase in capital expenditures would help meet the increased demand for chips and Google's AI products. Last year, Google DeepMind's CEO, Demis Hassabis, was one of three researchers awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry. Hassabis and his colleague, John Jumper, were recognized for Google DeepMind's work on protein-structure prediction. Musk's comments come as he continues to escalate his feud with Sam Altman and OpenAI. On Monday, Musk said xAI would take "immediate legal action" against Apple for what he said was Apple's bias toward OpenAI in its App Store rankings. A spokesperson for Apple told Business Insider on Tuesday that the App Store is "designed to be fair and free of bias." Musk and Altman cofounded OpenAI in 2015, but their relationship soured after Musk left its board in 2018. Last year, Musk sued OpenAI and accused the ChatGPT maker of violating its nonprofit mission when it partnered with Microsoft. Musk launched his own AI startup, xAI, in July 2023 and debuted his chatbot, Grok, later that year. xAI raised over $12 billion in its Series A, B, and C funding rounds in 2024 and was valued at a reported $50 billion. Last month, Musk said on X that his EV company, Tesla, will ask its shareholders to vote on whether to invest in xAI. He did not specify when the vote would take place. "It's not up to me. If it was up to me, Tesla would have invested in xAI long ago," Musk wrote on X on July 13. Read the original article on Business Insider Sign in to access your portfolio
