Meanwhile, educators across the country are also concerned that popular artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGBT could help students plagiarize essays. Its not for me, says NBCs Harry Smith. He joined comedian Godfrey and MSNBC host Ari Melber for Fallback Friday, also discussing the viral debate over bringing food on airplanes during The Beats Fallback Friday segment. (This is an excerpt of the full discussion that aired on MSNBC.)

Can't wait for the "national gun" debate. It's so obvious why this is such an insult for all sane Americans.

When it comes to the rubber meeting the road, the AR-15 style rifle is the majority/plurality preferred weapon for killing school children.
