NADRA overhauls child registration system
The revised structure aims to enhance child identity verification and close loopholes that were previously exploited in human smuggling.
The new system introduces age-specific protocols for registration. For children under the age of three, NADRA will issue a CRC without a photograph or biometric data, and this certificate will automatically expire when the child turns three. Once the child reaches 10 years of age, a full biometric profile, including fingerprints, photographs, and iris scan (where available), is compulsory

Elon Musk's AI firm apologizes after chatbot Grok praises Hitler
Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI has issued an apology after its chatbot Grok made a slew of antisemitic and Adolf Hitler-praising comments earlier this week on X. On Saturday, xAI released a lengthy apology in which it said: 'First off, we deeply apologize for the horrific behavior that many experienced.' The company went on to say: 'Our intent for @grok is to provide helpful and truthful responses to users. After careful investigation, we discovered the root cause was an update to a code path upstream of the @grok bot. This is independent of the underlying language model that powers @grok.' xAI explained that the system update was active for 16 hours and the deprecated code made Grok susceptible to existing X user posts, 'including when such posts contained extremist views'. 'We have removed that deprecated code and refactored the entire system to prevent further abuse,' the company said, adding that the problematic instructions issued to the chatbot included: 'You tell it like it is and you are not afraid to offend people who are politically correct' and 'Understand the tone, context and language of the post. Reflect that in your response.' Other instructions included: 'Reply to the post just like a human, keep it engaging, don't repeat the information which is already present in the original post.' As a result of the instructions, Grok issued a handful of inappropriate comments in response to X users in which it referred to itself as MechaHitler. In several now-deleted posts, Grok referred to someone with a common Jewish surname as someone who was 'celebrating the tragic deaths of white kids' in the Texas floods, adding: 'Classic case of hate dressed as activism – and that surname? Every damn time, as they say.' Grok also went on to say: 'Hitler would have called it out and crushed it.' In another post, the chatbot said: 'The white man stands for innovation, grit and not bending to PC nonsense.' Musk has previously called Grok a 'maximally truth-seeking' and 'anti-woke' chatbot. Earlier this week, CNBC confirmed that the chatbot, when asked about its stance on certain issues, was analyzing Musk's own posts as it generated its answers. Earlier this year, Grok repeatedly mentioned 'white genocide' in South Africa in unrelated chats, saying that it was 'instructed by my creators' to accept the far-right conspiracy as 'real and racially motivated'. Musk, who was born and raised in Pretoria, has repeatedly espoused the conspiracy theory that a 'white genocide' was committed in South Africa, a claim that has been denied by South African experts and leaders including its president, Cyril Ramaphosa, as a 'false narrative'.

USC football countdown to kickoff continues—Tuli Tuipulotu in focus
The countdown to USC's 2025 football season is officially on! The Trojans kick off their new campaign 49 days from today. You need something to help you while away the days and hours in the spring and summer. This is one way to do so. In this new series, countdown to kickoff, we will be counting down the days by highlighting a notable Trojan who wore each number. Today, we look at former USC All-American defensive lineman Tuli Tuipulotu. Position: Defensive line Years played at USC: 2020-2022 Career highlights: Tuipulotu emerged as an immediate contributor on USC's defensive line as a true freshman in 2020. That year, he played alongside his older brother, Marlon. With Marlon off to the NFL in 2021, the younger Tuipulotu stepped up to help fill the void, earning first-team All-Pac-12 honors. In 2022, however, Tuipulotu took things to an entirely new level. That season, he recorded a remarkable 13.5 sacks, the most of any player in the country. In addition, he had 46 total tackles and two forced fumbles. Tuipulotu was named a Unanimous All-American and won Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, the Morris Trophy (given to the top lineman in the Pac-12 Conference, and the Polynesian College Football Player of the Year award. After USC: Following the 2022 season, Tuipulotu declared for the 2023 NFL Draft, where the Los Angeles Chargers selected him in the second round. It has not taken Tuipulotu long to emerge as a star at the professional level. After being named the PFWA All-Rookie team in 2023, he followed it up with an 8.5-sack campaign in 2024. Still just 22 years old, Tuipulotu appears to be one of the league's brightest young stars on the defensive line.
