Ever wondered where TV news channels find all these young guests with near identical hard-right libertarian views?

Well it turns out they're being pushed out by specialist 'talent agencies' backed by pro-Trump cash

With the rise of AI, I imagine we will see a decline of political cartoons in news media: because they don't have to imagine or imply ideas now, they can just commission pictures that show exactly what they mean. And this has consequences (beyond annoying historians, who love political cartoons)...
So here's a curious thing, Jacob Rees-Mogg posted this teaser for his discussion on Rachel Reeves in China, with an image he attributed to Grek (I assume he
meant Grok) & it has given her an exaggerated hook nose. I'd love to know how what it was in the wording or algorithm which accounts for that

Children born in local authorities with the highest poverty rates are expected to live 5 years less than those born in areas with the lowest rates.

Being born into poverty could take years off your life.

This is not okay. ❌ 2/3
