It's the Brian Lairn Show on WNYC. I'm Tiffany Hanson, filling in for Brian today.

Coming up on the show, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Raynoso will join us to talk about a new redevelopment along the waterfront.

He recently changed his mind on that plan and went from a nay to a yay.

I'll ask him what changed his mind, what the plan will entail if it passes a key vote that's scheduled for this coming Monday.

And we'll talk with a guest who is

something of an AI doomsayer. He worries that with lax regulation, artificial superintelligence,

and yes, we'll ask what that means, could lead to human extinction. Look, not everybody agrees

with his assessment, obviously, so we'll ask him

some questions. And of course, we want yours as well. That's coming up just after 11. We'll wrap up

the show today with a question for you. What is so great about New York? This question is tied to a new

Sienna poll that found a majority of New Yorkers say the state is right on track.

Most did not have as positive a view of where the U.S. is as a whole.

That's not the case for New York, however.

Look, we like to complain a lot, but we're asking you to tell us what you think is going well for New York.

That's on the way.

Right now, well, it's been a busy week for anybody following the high-profile politically charged legal battles that are playing out across the country just to name one.

On Monday, President Trump filed a civil lawsuit against the New York Times, four of its reporters, and a penguin random house.

That case centers around statements regarding the president's business acumen.

He alleges that those statements were made in an attempt to sink his 2024 campaign.

For that, he's asking for $15 billion. We'll talk about that lawsuit

specifically, as well as some of the other legal news of the week, which includes, as everyone

is talking about this morning, the suspension of late night host Jimmy Kimmel, with Ellie Honig.
