Not even the Nazis expressly announced they were committing war crimes. Indeed, at Nuremberg war crimes were denied.

But here, openly, the US Secretary for Defense is explicitly admitting to committing war crimes.

I'm starting to find the number of senior people associated with Brexit who have 'prior commitments' preventing them from speaking at an event slightly suspicious

Just shows how much contempt Reform has for their own supporters. This is a policy that helps the kids of the wealthy educated liberal elites they claim to despise. And would harm the types of constituency they do well in.

AI’s ‘memorisation’ problem: the novels it can’t forget Research that shows LLMs memorise more training data than previously thought raises questions about copyright infringement

‘The world’s top AI models can be prompted to generate near-verbatim copies of bestselling novels, raising fresh questions about the industry’s claim that its systems do not store copyrighted works.’

British Growth and the Graduate Premium Britain's economic problems will not be solved by more graduates.

Great piece from @tomforth.co.uk on the shrinking graduate premium in the UK.
The UK's skills problem is not a problem of supply, it's one of demand; our regional economies are not complex & successful enough to absorb the number of graduates we produce.
