Institutionally sovereign… I share your despair. Have they learned nothing about networked organisation? FFS.

*bangs head against a wall*

Is this a data architecture issue? In which case why are we handing over so much of it to dubious organisations like Palantir, I ask myself.

Sam Altman defends AI’s energy toll by saying it also takes a lot to ‘train a human’ OpenAI CEO also downplayed concerns about how much water datacenters require at AI summit in India

If anyone searches for the term ‘douchebag’, they should get this because Sam Altman is omg I don’t even have enough words to describe how vile he is. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Mandelson being arrested by the police is great news, but the list of those who could be charged for misconduct in public office is a long one. We should be just getting started.

In completely unconnected news cough Boris Johnson cough.

Ros Atkins on...unanswered Andrew questions The BBC's Analysis Editor Ros Atkins looks at the questions around the way Buckingham Palace has responded to the various accusations against the King's brother.

Yeah the ‘thoughts and prayers’ tactic from the Palace doesn’t cut it. They have many, many questions to answer. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

The misogyny, lies, grifting and naked self-interest of Reform UK, a privately owned political party with an unelected’leader’ should all be kicked to the kerb very hard.

The most butt clenchingly embarrassing thing in this clip is the pathetic, sycophantic toadies who clap his refusal to answer the question and then laugh when he tells her to ‘go and write some silly story’. Farage is a liar and a charlatan who can’t stand any scrutiny whatsoever.
