Trump, taking a break from accusing the EU of censorship, repeatedly threatened to sue media and polling firms that portray him negatively.

Ratcliffe apologises for claiming UK ‘colonised’ by migrants as FA looks into remarks The Ineos founder said he was sorry if he ‘offended some people’ with his remarks, but insisted that is important to ‘raise the issue of controlled and well-managed immigration that supports economic ...

I have been a little surprised that this shoe hadn't dropped already. The more that businesses become seen as extensions of a particular government's interests, the less that many other governments will want to have any relationship to them. See also the CapGemini brouhaha.

While supporting big tech, notoriously big tech supporte says he doesn’t favour big tech

Remember when we thought Sarah Palin was the dumbest person in politics

Good times.

Clowns!

If TV used to be free to air and a societal good that everyone had access to.
And now everyone doesn’t.
How is “everyone“ a thief?

And training data cannot be well sourced?

It is likely that they will be a bias in the hypothetical mode that, despite experience, will not be mitigated? Who is doing the “censorship” in this scenario?

The disappointment of one eyesight declining as one gets older comes with many mini disappointments. The news of an ironic cafe turning out to be about an iconic cafe is one of them 🤦‍♂️

The Commission is proposing to invent ChatGPT? In 2026? For 200k? Really?

If one opposes things on the basis that they can be done badly, we should start with
Democracy
Socialism
Communism
Capitalism
The internet
Speaking
Being silent
Law
Anarchy
Pub transport
Private transport
Eating
Not eating

If?

I, for one, am shocked that fulfilment is not found in spreading hate, division and empty promises

Oh, God! What has Trump done now?

Maybe AI can listen for us 😵‍💫

The useful idiots who accept the invitation are bored of peace

We killed people in an illegal war. Surely that means we deserve to be treated better.

It is weird how the religious right in the US support bearing false witness, coveting their neighbour’s goods, an adulterer, killing, stealing… commandments? What are they?

The Prime Minister has come up with a very measured, diplomatic response and I think that if the President could remember who Starmer was, he would respect that.

Last year, we made the decision to step away from X.

The Royal Irish Academy is committed to creating, convening, and sharing knowledge for the public good and as an organisation we value Independence; Integrity; Curiosity; Openness and Rigour.

In our view, X no longer aligns with these values

The Irish MEP in charge of the deregulation (oopsI mean simplification) of the AI is on LinkedIn sagely mulling over whether non-consensual creation of intimate images should be banned 🤦‍♂️

The Legal Affairs Committee @juri.europarl.europa.eu of the European Parliament is STILL on X
