Each ICE operation generates roughly $196,000 in monthly losses for nearby businesses and communities. (That's 11x the government's administrative cost of a deportation.) Why? ICE activity decreases foot traffic in those public areas.

Always bears repeating that "AIs" don't know anything or have the capacity to know things and that "hallucinations" are the "AI" performing the same function as when it spits out valid information and cannot be stopped or fixed. This is a huge blow to LLM vendors.
