- In the New York civil fraud case, it was determined that Donald Trump and his co-defendants now have 10 days to post a $175 million bond, compared to the original $464 million.
- The late ruling from a panel of state Appellate Division judges, all appointed by Democratic governors, represents a significant victory and relief for the former president.

- Additionally, the court imposed a stay on the part of the initial judgment that restricted Trump from acting as a public officer of a company, as well as prohibitions on other individuals, although not all of Trump's requests were granted.

Grok-1 chatbot code released – open source or open Pandora's box?: What hasn't been released by Elon Musk's xAI is also of note
theregister.com/2024/03/18/grok_chatbot_code_released/
Quick Glance: Grok-1 Chatbot Code Released - Open Source or Pandora's Box?
- Elon Musk has released the code behind the xAI chatbot Grok-1, including the network architecture and model weights. The chatbot was released under the Apache 2.0 license and has 314 billion parameters that require hardware with sufficient GPU memory to run.
- Critics have highlighted the relatively sluggish performance in benchmarks compared to other models. Grok-1 has access to real-time data via X.com and differs from other LLMs trained on data with a cutoff point in time.
- Based on The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy model, Grok-1 is intended to answer almost anything and suggest questions. The release coincides with the first anniversary of OpenAI's GPT-4 model launch, while Musk is in legal disputes with former AI colleagues.
- The release of Grok-1's code and weights aims to diverge from OpenAI's proprietary approach. Open-sourcing AI tools has sparked controversy, with concerns about potential abuse and arguments for the benefits of transparency.
