Paul McCartney joins music industry protest against AI with silent track
Paul McCartney joins music industry protest against AI with silent track
Former Beatle and artists including Sam Fender, Kate Bush and Hans Zimmer record silent LP Is This What We Want
At two minutes 45 seconds it’s about the same length as With a Little Help From My Friends. But Paul McCartney’s first new recording in five years lacks the sing-along tune and jaunty guitar chops because there’s barely anything there.
The former Beatle, arguably Britain’s greatest living songwriter, is releasing a track of an almost completely silent recording studio as part of a music industry protest against copyright theft by artificial intelligence companies. Continue reading...

EU och Sverige har förlorat initiativet och trovärdighet i klimatpolitiken. Kina är världsledande när det gäller solel, batterier och elfordon. De gör enorma investeringar i vindkraft, järnväg och tunnelbanor. Där skapas framtidens jobb medan vi halkar efter.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Hvorfor bygger Norge ned mest natur?
NRK har akkurat dokumentert at vi nordmenn er Europamestre i nedbygging av natur. Ingen andre bygger ned og ødelegger mer natur hvert år pr innbygger enn oss.

Israel has attacked the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters. People of conscience have been abducted.
The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and the Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.

Fascinating pointer from @kevlin.bsky.social and James Lewis: cepr.org/voxeu/column...
"[Professions using AI] worked roughly 3.15 hours more per week in the post-ChatGPT period. When AI complements human labour rather than replacing it, the process makes each hour of work more valuable."

As AI’s power grows, so does our workday
Technological progress is typically expected to lighten the burden of work. But as artificial intelligence has been integrated into workplaces, early evidence suggests a paradox: instead of reducing workloads, many AI-equipped employees are busier than ever. This column examines the relationship between AI exposure, the length of the workday, time allocation, and worker satisfaction. Though AI-driven automation and delegation allow workers to complete the same tasks more efficiently, the authors find that employees in AI-exposed occupations are working longer hours and spending less time on socialisation and leisure.

We've just had a special weekend email from the Russian troll factory (they usually email us their latest fake videos Monday to Friday, so this is out of character), and they're all about Charlie Kirk. Unusually, they've also posted them on Truth Social, which they don't usually do in my experience.
I'm honestly surprised the Russian troll farms aren't all over the Charlie Kirk shooting, currently it seems they're focused on France, Germany, Armenia, and Moldova. The most recent links they've sent us were all about France, guess they've not received their latest marching orders.

People in my life are probably tired of how often I'm excitedly saying, "No...you don't understand....this is happening much faster than expected...people don't know what's happening!"
Let’s take a step back and think about how we would have felt 10 years ago if we were told this was going to be possible:
“By Q4, China's EV sales will overtake total US vehicle sales of all types (gasoline, hybrid, battery electric combined).”
And with LFP batteries!
