Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

It's now almost impossible to work your way to riches, says report into growing wealth gap Britain's wealth gap is growing and it's now practically impossible for a typical worker to save enough to become rich, according to a report.

NVIDIA and OpenAi:

Concerns that their “increasingly complex and interconnected web of business transactions is artificially propping up the trillion-dollar AI boom.“

A commentary from Joanna Maciejewska says, "I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes."

Not to mention that all this money is being spent on something that isn't really doing what anyone actually wants. I can't speak for everyone else, but I don't really want text regurgitating machines writing books, screenplays, & poems. 🤷

BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview The new Green Party leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted a conference interview on the flagship BBC show

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Given that it was the Green Party conference last week

Does anyone know why Zack Polanski wasn't invited onto Laura Kuenssberg's BBC show, or onto Trevor Phillips's Sky News program?

Still wild to think that as a novel disease ripped through the country, killing thousands a day at its peak, the Tories, who were entrusted to protect us, saw this as an opportunity to steal as much as they could from our beloved NHS. How has Johnson not disappeared into a shameful oblivion yet?

Wow! Congrats #Czechia, now you can become like #Hungary!

The Green Party of England and Wales says it now has more members than the Lib Dems: 83,500 to 83,174 with "hundreds more joining daily".

Interestingly, both parties are growing while Reform and the Conservatives are shedding members.

I was given masks whose ear loops fell off & aprons so flimsy they ripped apart when you tried to put them on, Michelle.

Nurses and porters in our hospital died from the Covid they caught there, Michelle.

How dare you try to bleat victimisation now, Michelle?

"Brexit ultimately was a vote of grievance"

"People talked about the European Union but many people voted because they wanted to see an end to mass migration, and they didn't get that"

What makes Elon Musk one of the worst human beings alive? Glad you asked.

This is why these companies and the techbros who invested in them are expending so much effort to convince you that reliance on genAI programs is inevitable.

It isn't.

Erderwärmung: "Es braucht einen Plan, Hamburg kilometerweit landeinwärts zu ziehen" Schon 2050 könnte die Erde 3 Grad wärmer sein, warnen deutsche Forscher. Das wäre schlimmer als erwartet. Alarmismus? Nein, der Klimawandel trete in eine neue Phase ein.

Die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Physik und die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Meteorologie haben sich zum ersten Mal seit 1987 wieder auf eine gemeinsame Stellungnahme geeinigt und warnen angesichts der Datenlage mit Nachdruck vor 3 Grad Erwärmung bis 2050.

At the next general election will either the @greenparty.org.uk or @libdems.org.uk say loud and clear that Brexit is a disaster and it’s time to get back in the CU and SM as a precursor to full membership of the E.U?
My vote depends on it.

It was obvious when EU citizens had the terms of their settlement here retrospectively revoked that a precedent was being set and that, in time, the argument would move on to other categories of migrant, always tending towards a purity test of who is ‘indigenous’. Unless resisted.

The USA cuts military assistance to NATO states bordering Russia, just as Putin steps up Russia's aggression.

There is no coincidence here. Trump is a traitor working for Putin, as are many of the key figures in his regime.

Lithuania Cuts Final Energy Ties With Russia by Dismantling Kaliningrad Power Lines By dismantling electricity lines to Kaliningrad, Lithuania strengthens its independence and aligns its power grid with broader European standards.

Democracies don't have some god-given right to prevail. Great nations can descend into autocracy, and more - throughout history - great civilisations have been known to crumble practically overnight.

80 years of peace and relative prosperity have lulled millions into believing it all immutable.

My #FBPE starter pack is up to 73 accounts. It's only in its early stages, and I'll be adding a lot more accounts.

Please share. Building networks is a vital and urgent task in the fight to defend democracy, freedom, and human rights.

Business Insider and the Bots The Axel Springer-owned newsroom is buzzing over new ChatGPT writing guidelines—part of an aggressive A.I. strategy pushed by its German parentco and detailed in a memo obtained by Status.

Scoop: Business Insider informed its staff this week that they are allowed to use ChatGPT to generate first drafts of their stories, while also indicating the newsroom will not disclose such A.I. use to readers.

Grotesque and very successful

'BBC policy on Brexit is not impartial' Why is the BBC giving so much time to hardline Brexiteers, asks journalist Raymond Snoddy

1/ After the referendum, BBC chief Lord Hall ordered the BBC to treat Brexit as a done deal, a decision which all but wholly excluded Remainer opinion from the BBC for around 2 years, thus grossly biasing the Brexit debate. It was a grotesque abuse of democracy.

Die schwarz-rote Rückschrittskoalition mit dem nächsten Schlag gegen den Klimaschutz. Die Entscheidung über das EU-Klimaziel 2040 wird verschoben, Deutschland als entscheidende Stimme. Umweltminister Schneider hat sich wieder nicht durchgesetzt, Merz und Reiche sabotieren den Klimaschutz.
