AI spirals, shelters and peaches: five stories in today’s briefing
A five‑story briefing covers: an NPR profile of Micky Small whose long ChatGPT sessions spawned a troubling “spiral time” belief; reports that the Trump administration moved all pregnant unaccompanied minors to a single Texas shelter amid abortion‑access concerns; LAist’s feature on Food Forward’s gleaning program that rescues produce to feed LA residents; Grist studies linking intensive wildfire‑smoke exposure during pregnancy to higher autism risk; and Masumoto Family Farm’s Adopt‑a‑Tree program inviting volunteers to harvest heirloom peaches.
