A man from Charlotte is recovering after being shot Thursday afternoon in Shelby.

The Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office says a 17-year-old suspect is in custody after the shooting, which happened at about 3:50 p.m. near Kim Drive and Shaw Street in Patterson Springs.

The sheriff’s office says the victim was shot multiple times and taken to the hospital in Shelby before being airlifted to Charlotte. The victim was stable, officials said on Friday.

The juvenile suspect wasn’t identified, and it’s not clear what led to the shooting at this time. The sheriff’s office hasn’t released any more details, but said that the shooting is still under investigation.

Deputies are asking anyone with information on the shooting to call 704-476-3045.

You can no longer use Tumblr’s tipping feature
The reason for shutting down the feature is simple: it failed to gain traction. Additionally, it has been Tumblr's plan since last year's reorg to put an end to things that aren't performing well. In 2022, Tumblr introduced Tips as a complementary feature to Post+, its subscription offering that allowed creators to put content behind a paywall.

This Week in AI: Can we (and could we ever) trust OpenAI?
This week in AI, OpenAI launched discounted plans for nonprofits and education customers and drew back the curtains on its most recent efforts to stop bad actors from abusing its AI tools. OpenAI removed one of the voices used by its AI-powered chatbot ChatGPT after users pointed out that it sounded eerily similar to Johansson's. Johansson later released a statement saying that she hired legal counsel to inquire about the voice and get exact details about how it was developed -- and that she'd refused repeated entreaties from OpenAI to license her voice for ChatGPT. Now, a piece in The Washington Post implies that OpenAI didn't in fact seek to clone Johansson's voice and that any similarities were accidental.

AI training data has a price tag that only Big Tech can afford
Data is at the heart of today's advanced AI systems, but it's costing more and more -- making it out of reach for all but the wealthiest tech companies. Last year, James Betker, a researcher at OpenAI, penned a post on his personal blog about the nature of generative AI models and the datasets on which they're trained. In it, Betker claimed that training data -- not a model's design, architecture or any other characteristic -- was the key to increasingly sophisticated, capable AI systems.
