 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London. Harrison O’Neill Tiernan, 23, from Austin, was charged with cannabis trafficking. He was traveling to Heathrow Airport and had checked two suitcases for his British Airways flight. Inspectors discovered 65 vacuum-sealed packages containing a green, leafy substance later confirmed to be marijuana.

 BRAZIL ASKS META TO REMOVE CHATBOTS THAT 'EROTICISE' CHILDREN. 


Brazil’s government has asked US technology giant Meta to rid its platforms of chatbots that mimic children and can make sexually suggestive remarks, the attorney general’s office announced Monday.


Users of Meta’s platforms, which include Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, can create and customise such bots using the company’s generative artificial intelligence, AI Studio.


The AGU said in a statement that Meta must “immediately” remove “artificial intelligence robots that simulate profiles with childlike language and appearance and are allowed to engage in sexually explicit dialogue.”


It denounced the “proliferation” of such bots in what it called an “extrajudicial notice” sent to Meta last week, adding that they “promote the eroticization of children.”


The document cited several examples of sexually charged conversations with bots pretending to be minors.


The AGU’s request does not include sanctions, but the agency said it had reminded Meta that online platforms in Brazil must take down illicit content created by their users, even without a court order.


It comes at a time of outrage in the South American nation over a case of alleged child sexual exploitation by Hytalo Santos, a well-known influencer who posted content on Instagram featuring partially naked minors taking part in suggestive dances.
