Check out my new #schmoedown article, in which I assess the newly assembled factions, predict which roster will end the season as champions, and offer my own hot take for the season:

A software engineer was granted a religious exemption from using AI at work. Legal experts say others may follow now that the Pope has raised concerns about the tech's impact on humanity. https://t.co/Cn2BvGc4xc
Trans Rights are human rights. Buying this game as well as anything harry potter actively harms trans people. JK Rowling benefits monetarily & uses that money to further harm trans people w/anti trans laws.
UNICEF is outraged by the killing of two drivers of trucks contracted by UNICEF to provide clean water to families in the Gaza Strip.
The victims were killed by Israeli fire in an incident that took place early this morning at the Mansoura water filling point in northern Gaza. UNICEF extends our condolences to the families of the men killed.

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph.
I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them.
The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry.
And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children.

Reform featuring in a quarter of all BBC News at Ten bulletins - considerably more than the Lib Dems, who have 18 times as many MPs, and far too often policy is unscrutinised, according to an authoritative new study. Something’s gone badly wrong at the BBC https://t.co/cLJRFn3Evt
If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
