If you're trying decide whether to watch the 3-part Blair documentary, much laced with Blair today talking head or the 4OD 3-parter on Fukushima, recommend the latter.

Blair doesn't explain Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBI) funding being largely Larry Ellison.

There had been much concern with the NHS and private contracts, e.g. drugs, through fear the NHS could be bankrupted (well the govt. would have a massive bill and that would be highly political) with adjudication by tout a fait an industry adjudication process.

◻️

How the contractual fight by a company like Palantir operates was one of the big issues with aspects of privatising the NHS. It had been variously claimed NHS would be bankrupted (not poss. with govt. owned, but expensive... is if in any way reneged on a contract. e.g. providing drugs for NHS.

Those at all interested will have been paying attention to the 'Great UK Leap Forward' promoted by Starmer & Healy, & being immediately overcome with a strong, "Neither of them understand anything about AI"

Already Palantir is attacking CH for stopping contract.

😼 Obviously it's a complicated issue incl. LLMs accusing other LLMs of stealing their prompts.

But the fun bit is an author who has used AI to write a novel (say), up in arms because someone else has use his prompts to write a novel.

Thing is, MAGA is based on performative cruelty. Trump supporters like him being cruel to folks they don't like.

For Reform, the cruelty is in suggesting it alone. They don't have to implement this tripe. Reform voters will love it as it is the sort of othering they thrive on.

Buzzing round my head for days. They can't impeach 47 even when everyone sees he keeps falling asleep - a worry if he wakes with a start & decides to bomb somewhere at random.

Maybe he'll end up with a small bell attached to his hand which they have to ask him questions to get a response.

That's the Israel message he's parroting. Iran bomb/destroy Israel.
