Ethical critical thinking and not using old, biased, corrupted data for LLMs matters. #AI4Trust we know that when identical medical info and Qns are put into 4 different AI ‚doctors‘ the divergence and misdiagnoses are legion

Accession is a good thing, Andrew.

Millions of people, many who suffered behind the Iron Curtain, now have open borders to Europe.

This is to be celebrated, not attacked.

There is no 90/180 day problem.

Any concessions agreed as part of Starmer's so-called 'reset' will come at a price.
Surely it would be better to pay more & get much more back in return, not least our EU citizenship?

EU investing €546 billion for high speed rail by 2040

E.g. Lisbon to Warsaw, from 38 hours today to 12 hours

Pricing to compete with low cost flights

Reduce emissions by 80%

Seventy-five years ago, Britain helped write the European Convention on Human Rights to keep power in check and protect basic freedoms. That legacy is now under threat. Read our piece on why the ECHR still matters and why defending it means defending Britain’s own values.
Seventy-Five Years of the European Convention on Human Rights
We're the UK's largest pro-European movement. Our goal is to reverse the calamity of Brexit and restore relations with our European neighbours.

noyb win: Microsoft 365 Education may not track school children - see noyb.eu for explanation

Juliet Lodge @julietl.bsky.social · 4d
Properly informing employees, students and other users about how their data is used is mandatory by law - but often factually impossible for commercial customers. The German data protection authorities have already considered Microsoft 365 to fall short of the requirements of the GDPR #noyb.eu

Likely consequences for Microsoft 365. Microsoft 365 Education used by millions of students and teachers across Europe. Millions of others use the standard "Microsoft 365" at companies and authorities in Europe..

@theobserveruk.bsky.social „now half of Scotland’s private land is held by just 420 people. A complicated national history of land clearances, artistic romanticism and feudal tenure means the topic is divisive“ (as rows over new legislation show).
