It was on a UnitedHealth Group subsidiary. The company said it’s paid out $2 billion in advances to providers while it rebuilds its payment claims systems. I’m not saying this wouldn’t have happened if they read this newsletter … but it probably wouldn’t have.
🦐 AI invasion: Facebook’s algorithm is now pushing AI-generated content that goes straight to ad-heavy websites and scams. Some of these spam images look real, and others, like “Shrimp Jesus” (paywall link) are so weird that people can’t help but click. Meta’s response? Crickets, as usual.
