In honour of @Death_of_Stalin being released in the US this week, here is my @theskinnymag interview with eternal leader of the people's republic @Aiannucci on the film, satire and, of course, Trump.

Astonishing scoop from @johngconnolly in The Spectator today...

The Treasury removed its Numerical Reasoning Test from the department's graduate scheme in 2019 "due to evidence of the test having adverse impact on candidate diversity".

After dropping the requirement HMT boasted that "subsequently, the levels of adverse impact decreased in the 2020 campaign".

“If I just extend this frame using Apple Intelligence, my family will love me so much MORE.” #WWDC

[Ben Rabinovich @benjyrabs]

Editing family pictures seems like a really odd use case for Apple Spatial Reframing.

“My damn kids aren’t posing correctly for my beautiful pictures (shot on iPhone 17). I know, I’ll just replace them and their surroundings with AI generated slop. Memories for a lifetime.”

🚨JUST IN: Tottenham player Antonín Kinský’s interview was cut short because the network had to show Arsenal lifting the Premier League trophy

[Arsenal @Arsenal]

It's N̶O̶T̶ done.

[Kai Havertz @kaihavertz29]

Run it back.

[Arsenal @Arsenal]

We did it, together.

[Arsenal @Arsenal]

The Arsenal. Your Premier League champions.

Sky are bigging up ‘gifting’ us HBO Max which just appears to be all the stuff they already showed and then removed from Sky Atlantic and now have to pay another tenner to watch in uhd without ads on HBO.

So let me get this straight:
1. Petty activism against a Palestinian-owned cafe is bad (agreed!)
2. But *violent* activism against a cafe that people associate (wrongly!) with Israel is justified and understandable

Update your rule book accordingly

"It's a HORRENDOUS decision... they've taken three seconds, it's an absolute DISGRACE!" 🤬

Jamie Redknapp couldn't BELIEVE this wasn't a penalty for Arsenal!

In real life, I assume that “negotiator” would be fired before Copilot even finished hallucinating.

Turn data into insights with Microsoft 365 Copilot.

“On the day two men were jailed for plotting to kill hundreds of British Jews, and only months after Manchester Jews were attacked in their synagogue, I’m going to talk about rich Jews and roll my eyes at antisemitism blah blah. I am very smart”

[Ben Rabinovich @benjyrabs]

I wonder if we’ll stop using X and LinkedIn because they’re full of AI-written content, with its vapid writing style, which probably subconsciously affects our own writing styles until we write shit like “you didn’t just understand the game - you changed it”.

[ESPN UK @ESPNUK]

One was a red card 🟥 One was not a red card ❌

[Ben Rabinovich @benjyrabs]

We aren’t ready for the implication of this because there is nothing of substance in this because it was written by partially by AI

[Simon Clarke @SirSimonClarke]

Worth reading. It doesn’t feel like we are ready for the implications of this.

[alex bronzini-vender @alexbronzini]

I can normally grasp why others find an argument compelling, even when I don’t. Here, I’m genuinely at a loss

[Ben Rabinovich @benjyrabs]

@mattshumer_ Can the new models count words as precisely as Microsoft Word?

[🇻🇦 Fr Victor Feltes @StuffForSisters]

I've spent years working to disprove the so-called "sunk-cost fallacy" and I'm not going to stop now.
