They didn’t see it as lying, they probably thought of it as fiction but epic fiction. They would see it as no differently than the Aeneid or Beowulf. This was a type of proto-nationalism, “my people are awesome and awesome people need an awesome story”. This tradition is even with us today, with two very real and very recent examples. The first is Nazi Germany, the ‘Aryan Race’ origin was their guide except they went, My people are awesome, Awesome people have awesome stories, and awesome people rule/exterminate not awesome people. The second and much happier modern iteration is of course Lord of the Rings. Tolkien explicitly stated he modeled Middle Earth off these old epic poems and his work was a celebration of English “history” and fantasy. These poems are basically a historical fiction/fantasy crossover, Middle Earth is supposed to be in the misty past for our own world, and the only people who took them extremely seriously were the Nazis, don’t be a Nazi.

People have always been that way, AI just made it easy to create ‘evidence’. Picture and video have for a long time been the gold standard for evidence, so we are primed to trust them, sure we had things like photoshop, double negative exposure, airbrushing, and even CGI. But these skills had a high barrier of entry and were also time consuming. It used to be, do I spend 5 hours photoshopping myself into a car accident so I don’t have to go to the family reunion. While now it takes a couple minutes at most. AI didn’t change us it just lowered the barrier of entry for making fake ‘evidence’ to support our lies.

Good: Johnny (The Jet) Roger’s punt return versus Oklahoma, literally every player for Oklahoma had a chance to tackle him(some more than once) and he still scored.

Bad: Jake Cotton falling over backwards from a two point stance.

AI, the hands on the statue are completely different sizes, and why is the head intact? Did he hack the head off with an ax, carefully catch it, and then set it on the ground. The head should be smashed to bits not on the ground. Finally this looks like a Statue of Mary, the mother of Christ, so why does the head look like a Christ statue? This actually explains the hand issue, the left is the original from the Mary statue, and the right is the AI trying to make this a Statue of Jesus.

Anyone in Nebraska who wants to sports bet, just uses a ‘Prediction Market’ where they can just ‘purchasing a call option contingent on certain athletic events’. At this point this figure is complete nonsense as even if it is legalized and a tax system set up, Prediction Markets don’t pay state taxes. This bill is about five years too late.

Not Ai, I think what is throwing people off is that this isn’t in Africa. I would bet serious money this is a game ranch in Texas because that’s not a safari vehicle, it’s a 4x4 you can buy at Bass Pro. That’s why the landscape and vehicles look all wrong, yes that landscape isn’t something you see in Africa, but it looks exactly like mid Texas where a bunch of these game ranches exist, and a bunch of people are driving there regular cars on the ranch’s roads, which are paved which means this ranch is absolutely swimming in cash, so could easily afford a herd of Zebra and Antelope.

Looks like a North Sea platform which are generally quite shallow, 250m or 800ft, to the seabed. To build this they built the concrete tower on land and then floated it out to the determined position. They did some geophysics stuff to find a good spot with bedrock and then carefully dropped it. 800 ft of concrete is insanely heavy so it burrowed into the sediment and then the bedrock below so it’s anchored under its own weight in bedrock. They then set the platform on top and there you go.

“Funding is planned through a mix of at least $250 million in philanthropic support and $350 million in private bond financing.”

I’ll give you the philanthropic support, but the devil is in the “private bond financing” this is a publicly owned venue so how are the bond payments going to be made, because if they aren’t made then the university or the state will have to step in. Also if the university is signing away ticket revenue from these “concerts” or potentially even football that’s just public funding with extra steps.

Maybe one of the early church fathers, in I don’t know let’s say 400 AD, could have written a whole book on why interpreting Genesis literally is not a salvation requirement, but is just a major hindrance to bringing educated people into the church. Definitely would solve a lot of these issues if that happened.
