About this episode

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!

In this episode of 'Discover Daily', we begin with the controversial roll out of in-car advertisements by Jeep, causing significant backlash among vehicle owners due to intrusive full-screen pop-ups on their infotainment systems. The situation, now blamed on a software glitch affecting opt-out functionality, has sparked important discussions about privacy and safety in modern vehicles, while raising concerns about the future of in-car advertising across the automotive industry.

France makes headlines with a groundbreaking 109 billion euro investment package in artificial intelligence, positioning itself as a formidable competitor in the global AI race. The initiative includes a massive UAE-backed one-gigawatt AI data center, substantial investments from major firms like Brookfield and BPI France, and comprehensive plans for chip acquisition and talent development, demonstrating France's commitment to becoming a leading force in AI innovation.

The episode's main story looks at the existence of the FBI's secret UFO office, dedicated to investigating Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs). Working alongside the Pentagon's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, this covert unit employs over a dozen specialists nationwide. While recent Pentagon reports found no evidence of extraterrestrial activity, the office continues its vital work despite facing potential personnel changes and operating with a classified budget.
