NFL AI partnership: What all 32 coaches would (totally seriously) ask
On Wednesday, the NFL announced a generative AI partnership with Microsoft. It will apparently allow NFL coaches access to a Microsoft Copilot feature on their in-game tablets that will "help" them with all kinds of situations and problems every Sunday. As the Los Angeles Rams' Sean McVay professed, "it's going to be a big deal." You know, like the dot-com bubble, Facebook's "pivot to video," Skype, cryptocurrency, and non-fungible tokens before it. You better believe the future is here, dearest readers. Either thoughtlessly and shamelessly buy into it with all of your public credibility, goodwill, and financial resources, or get left behind. Your choice! This perplexing agreement (why does the NFL, of all companies anywhere, need to be involved in AI?) announced just over two weeks before the start of the 2025 regular season got us thinking. How would all 32 coaches try to use the Copilot feature? What kinds of questions and queries would they feed into a (glorified dopamine) machine? How would they enhance their coaching performance with a machine that may or may not be simply telling them what they want to hear? Below you will find our best theories and best guesses at the totally serious problems each active NFL head coach would try to get to the bottom of, whether they're related to a game or not.

Top 5 jobs safe from AI
AI is likely coming for millions of jobs, but Microsoft says these 5 are basically robot-proof: Phlebotomists, nursing assistants, Hazardous Materials Removal Workers, Helpers, Painters, Plasterers, Embalmers Video produced by Yahoo Finance Video Transcript AI is likely coming for millions of jobs, but Microsoft says that these five are likely robot proof. Number one, phlebotomists. That's the medical professional who draws your blood. AI might be booking your appointments, but it's not picking up a needle. Number two, nursing assistants. These workers provide hands-on care, bedpans, bathing, feeding. These are not exactly tasks you're gonna outsource to ChatGPT. Number three, hazardous material removal workers, removing asbestos, lead, or radioactive waste. It is dangerous work and right now something that only humans can be trusted with. Number four is helpers, painters, plasters. This is anything that's hands-on work. So a robot might be able to design your color palette, but picking up a paintbrush, that's not happening, not yet. And finally, the last of the top five jobs, safe from AI embalmers. Preparing bodies for a funeral is personal and delicate work, and right now it is still human only. So if you're in one of these jobs, you might just have more security than the rest of us in this age of AI.

Microsoft reviewing Israeli military's use of its tech amid worker protests
REDMOND, Wash. (AP) — Worker-led protests erupted at Microsoft headquarters this week as the tech company promises an 'urgent' review of the Israeli military's use of its technology during the ongoing war in Gaza. A second day of protests at the Microsoft campus on Wednesday called for the tech giant to immediately cut its business ties with Israel. Microsoft late last week said it was tapping a law firm to investigate allegations reported by British newspaper The Guardian that the Israeli Defense Forces used Microsoft's Azure cloud computing platform to store phone call data obtained through the mass surveillance of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. 'Microsoft's standard terms of service prohibit this type of usage," the company said in a statement posted Friday, adding that the report raises 'precise allegations that merit a full and urgent review.' The company said it will share the findings after law firm Covington & Burling completes its review. The promised review was insufficient for the employee-led No Azure for Apartheid group, which for months has protested Microsoft's supplying the Israeli military with technology used for its war against Hamas in Gaza. In February, The Associated Press revealed previously unreported details about the American tech giant's close partnership with the Israeli Ministry of Defense, with military use of commercial AI products skyrocketing by nearly 200 times after the deadly Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack. The AP reported that the Israeli military uses Azure to transcribe, translate and process intelligence gathered through mass surveillance, which can then be cross-checked with Israel's in-house AI-enabled targeting systems. Following The AP's report, Microsoft acknowledged the military applications but said a review it commissioned found no evidence that its Azure platform and artificial intelligence technologies were used to target or harm people in Gaza. Microsoft did not share a copy of that review or say who conducted it. Microsoft in May fired an employee who interrupted a speech by CEO Satya Nadella to protest the contracts, and in April, fired two others who interrupted the company's 50th anniversary celebration.
