Everything is computer! Researching money, work and ecological political economy.

[Andrew Feinstein @andrewfeinstein]

Not sure Burnham offers real change - that will be determined by putting people before profits, welfare before warfare - but it likely marks the end of Keir Starmer, the most mendacious, unprincipled politician of recent times. Hopefully after getting booted out of Number 10, he will also leave Holborn & St. Pancras so we can elect an MP who represents us, not his billionaire & corporate donors, & Trump & Netanyahu

[Jake Lewis @JLewis_53]

If there is one thing Trump understands it is power. Did he eventually come to understand the cards Iran had on their side, that US-Israel did not have escalation dominance? Difficult to read it differently

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

Unreal: the symbolism of Trump signing a surrender agreement at Versailles in which the US agrees to pay massive reparations is just too perfect.

I wouldn't be surprised if Macron weaponized Trump's complete ignorance of history and told him something like: "Mr. President, Versailles is where the most consequential deal of the 20th century was signed. Yours deserves the same stage."

Either that or Macron stumbled into the perfect historical parallel through sheer obliviousness - which, knowing him, is actually even more likely.

"Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist Party?"

This from a Labour government minister. We are in very, very dark times.

[Alex Tiffin @RespectIsVital]

You can vehemently disagree with Palestine Action activists goals, whilst simultaneously be horrified a judge can decide AFTER a conviction if it was terrorism related amd double a sentence.

Being able to class an offense as terrorism AFTER conviction without charging them with terrorism should bother everyone.

Any protest action that is now determined as trying to "change government policy" can have this applied.

So today it's Palestine Action, but next it'll be immigration protests, farmers protests, NHS, tax etc etc.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

BREAKING: "Greater Israel" is now marketed in London. Like in Montreal and in New York.
Apartheid without borders.

P.S. This explains why criticism of Israel is being restricted (and "anti-antisemitism" laws keep appearing). Apartheid is not only a crime. It is a business model.

The problem with capitalism is that eventually you run out of other people’s donkey meat

Ok but dana white will be wearing a suit?

[TheFrenchie @ML3democrats]

Remember when they said Zelensky desecrated the sanctity of the White House by not wearing a suit

[Sangita Myska @SangitaMyska]

It’s begun: The Great Rewriting of History by the politicians, journalists, media commentators who stayed quiet over Gaza to keep climbing the greasy pole - while a handful of us who spoke-up were smeared, abused, or fired.

As @Hamza_a96 says, don’t let them do it:

[El Jones @ElJonesPoet]

Take a slave owner or residential school founder’s name off a street or remove a statue and there’ll be endless screaming about preserving history. But when Israel destroys Tyre - older than all European capitals - in Lebanon and destroys ancient monuments it’s silence.

[Daniela Gabor @DanielaGabor]

The @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski should also ask how Peter Mandelson arranged for UK to join Trump's Pax Silica, a project explicitly pursuing US AI supremacy with lock-ins and dependencies that will be hard to unravel.

[John Delmenico @thebigjohnnyd]

The Google ai push is proof that billionaires truly are cartoonishly greedy, they had a beloved product that worked properly and was printing billions of dollars for them and intentionally broke it in the hopes that breaking it could make them a few extra bucks right now

[Jake Lewis @JLewis_53]

Me, a Jewish atheist:

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

I will never forgive the BBC for what they have done

[Trans Wizard Harriet Porber @MxVivianWulf]

This entire show is a piece of government propaganda meant to manufacture consent for the infiltration of private AI companies in our public services and the govt handing out billions in taxpayer's money to line the pockets of their techbro cronies.

It is perverse corruption.

[MrTARDIS @TrilbeeReviews]

Everyone involved in this should be so deeply embarrassed that they never feel comfortable being part of society ever again.

What the fuck is this shit?

[BBC Question Time @bbcquestiontime]

Tonight Question Time features an imagined AI panel made up of historical figures who shaped the modern world

Watch the #bbcqt AI special now on @BBCiPlayer and @BBCNews to see what our REAL panel have to say on AI, including how it can blur the lines between reality and fakery

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

So you know what @bbcquestiontime did with Farage? They’re now doing it with AI.

This ‘expert’ panel on AI is a disgrace: not one critical voice.

Gilbert works for Tony Blair to promote AI. Jones is govt chief AI booster (& Blair flunky). Riparbelli is industry. Gawdat is ex industry. And for ‘balance’? A Tory MP.

Tony Blair might not like my plan, but he's wrong: it's changing Britain for the better.

Tony Blair: Wow, get a load of AI. We should probably cut welfare somewhat. Also, we should be involved in the Iran War for some reason.

Broadsheet columnist: Say what you like about the man, but the sophistication of his analysis is unparalleled.
