One Lancaster County fabric store opens its doors at 7:30 in the morning, which means some sewists are browsing bolts before most people finish their coffee. Another shop in the same county stocks more than 6,000 bolts, and I can’t decide if that sounds like heaven or a very pleasant trap.

AI judges like the one in "Mercy" are still a Hollywood hallucination, but Penn researchers are preparing real judges for a future when the technology becomes a fixture in their chambers. Why it matters: Judges carrying crushing caseloads are warming to AI but remain wary of costly mistakes in cases where people's lives hang in the balance. The big picture: AI is a double-edged sword, helping people navigate the legal system while turning just about everyone into an armchair lawyer. Judges are already the last line of defense in protecting litigants' rights, and now they're being thrust into another role: AI firewalls , policing attorneys who submit court filings that could cite fake AI-generated cases . The job is further complicated by people representing themselves turning to AI to write legal pleadings and navigate their cases. State of play: A majority of judges surveyed by Northwestern researchers reported using at least one AI tool, though a much smaller percentage used them weekly or daily. Many judges used AI for time-consuming tasks, including legal research and summarizing witness testimony. Yes, but: The biggest barriers to judges embracing AI included fears of eroding public trust in the judiciary, losing their own legal

ALBANY, N.Y. — Forecast models continue to show cold air and a possible coastal storm near the end of next week and into the weekend.

The Euro AI ensemble shows a 50 to 60 percent chance of at least 3 inches of snow in some mountain areas. Much will depend on timing, the storm’s track and strength, and how much cold air moves south.

The season may be lost for Jedd Fisch and the Washington Huskies after a 28-25 loss to the Penn State Nittany Lions , but there are still three weeks to play, two of which will come against teams ranked inside the US LBM Coaches Poll. The first will be Curt Cignetti and the No. 5 Indiana Hoosiers, who dropped two spots despite being idle in Week 10, on November 21. By the time UW returns home for that game, it will have been over a year since Fisch's last win in Big Ten play at Husky Stadium.
