  Coke doubles down on AI-generated holiday advertising. Coca-Cola, the company whose marketing department cemented the modern image of Santa, released a new AI-generated ad yesterday, even though last year’s attempt evoked more jeers than holiday cheer. In 2024, the company’s AI-made holiday spot prompted backlash, both for its uncanny valley dwelling AI-produced humans, and for the tech’s potential to take jobs away from the creative professionals who would otherwise be creating ad imagery. But it garnered billions of impressions, and the company said this year’s offering—which features animals, not humans—is better.

• 🏛️Government shutdown enters fifth week, with more consequences
  More than 65,000 children are at risk of ...
  More than 65,000 children are at risk of losing access to Head Start, the national childcare and early childhood learning program for low-income families, as more funding lapses hit centers in multiple states. Local Head Start programs receive their annual funding at different times of the year. Those who receive their annual budget on Oct. 1 have already been disrupted. Now, those scheduled to receive funding on Nov. 1 have been impacted, as will those with Dec. 1 funding dates if the shutdown continues. And yesterday, on CBS’s Face the Nation, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said that he would not fire air traffic controllers who do not show up to work without pay during the government shutdown, and “We will slow traffic down, you’ll see delays, we’ll have flights canceled to make sure the system is safe” if there aren’t enough ATCs to cover shifts. And on CNN’s State of the Union, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the Trump administration “could” make SNAP payments by Wednesday. If the shutdown continues until Wednesday, it will be the longest ever.
