"Funding for fraud/cybersec is 26% of the total funds raised for #AI vendors in banking.

Customer service vendors raised merely 5% of the total funds raised. Despite this, 35% of banking comms is about customer service." @Emerj / @PRNewswire

This @exxonmobile chart from 1982 predicted that in 2019 our atmospheric CO2 level would reach about 415 parts per million, raising the global temperature roughly 0.9 degrees C.

Update: The world crossed the 415 ppm threshold this week and broke 0.9 degrees C in 2017 1/

This is how corporate lobbying works:

Lobbyists ID bills they need to kill to keep profits high (no matter the human cost), come up w/ “sensible” talking points to mask intent + say policy is “misguided,” then schmooze policymakers in secret into accepting said talking points.

'Go to' clips for when anyone says:
"no one saw the financial crisis coming..."

[Tuxedo Mask @TheLoveBel0w]

In this '04 interview, @ewarren tried to warn us of the coming crash. Here are 4 clips.

"Alan Greenspan, our national economic leader, stood up for the last 4 years and told Americans 'borrow against your house.' What frightens me is millions of Americans have taken that advice"

@RobMcCargow @Independent Headline is not what the results say.

The journalist is using incorrect language in order to support a viewpoint.

Alternative headline, different viewpoint:

Small scale Facial Recognition trials result in identification and arrest of 8 violent wanted criminals.

[Robert Harris @Robert___Harris]

How absurd for both Conservatives & Labour to say the message from last night was “get on with Brexit” when the biggest gainer was a party unequivocally opposed to Brexit!
