Primaris REIT, which owns Halifax Shopping Centre, has submitted new development plans that encompass Halifax Transit's overcrowded Mumford terminal. The plans call for an expanded, at-grade bus terminal rather than the underground design proposed by the mall's previous owner. (1/5)

An architectural rendering showing a redevelopment proposal for the site currently occupied by Halifax Transit's Mumford Terminal. There's a new bus terminal on the same site as the old one, but expanded and partially covered by a new podium structure. There are two glass towers on top of the podium.A site plan showing the ground level of the redevelopment. The bus terminal has been increased in size, allowing for nine bus bays in place of the present three bus bays. The ground floor of the podium structure, where the Dollarama parking lot is located currently, houses parking and service areas, tower lobbies, retail units, bike parking, and townhomes.Site plan of the overall development. There are four towers, two of them located on the Dollarama parking lot podium, and two of them located on the site of the strip mall that currently houses Dollarama and Moore's clothing.A bird's eye perspective of the four new glass towers that range from 22 to 42 storeys.

Amazon’s Ring is partnering with Flock’s network of AI-powered license plate readers, to enable police and ICE request doorbell footage for investigations. This is the first time I’ve seen cross-app integration built to serve law enforcement instead of end users.

ChatGPT is probably the biggest honey pot of willingly-turned over highly confidential information that has ever been created in human history.

Sam@very-simple.com · last yr.

also, so many of these people are just taking company confidential, proprietary data and dumping it into public iterations of ChatGPT, which is so incredibly problematic on so many levels. Even on our internal approved tools I have to tell people to turn them off when discussing certain legal stuff!

Tech companies spending hundreds of millions to hire individual AI PhDs with the revenue they collected distributing endless medical and climate science misinformation is really just something else
