Whole Foods AI stores were entirely Indians watching on video feeds and ringing you up. Waymos have live human support partially driving them. And the AI that has “Hollywood shaking in its boots” is…stock footage. With face replacement.

Yeah. We are sooooooo cooked, AI bros. Call me when it works.

Billionaires should not exist because they can use their vast wealth and influence to create crises like this in service of something the vast majority of the public does not want and cannot be meaningfully stopped as long as they're billionaires.

Real connaisseurs use kimchi.
Pancake Day reveals a new, highly divisive intergenerational split - while older generations are loyal to traditional lemon and sugar pancake topping, younger adults are more likely to say they prefer Nutella or chocolate spread on their pancakes.

It's the BBC World Service, not the BBC Town Service.
if only we had a media and culture secretary @roberthutton.co.uk
And another bites the dust?

The BBC World Service will run out of funding in just seven weeks. Its funding arrangement with the Foreign Office finishes at the end of March. There is no plan for what happens next.

Our stomachs contain hydrochloric acid. It's therefore perfectly fine to drink a pint of hydrochloric acid.

If you interview Farage, you need to prepare for the interview. He will talk about migration, so you need to know the basic figures. You could have asked Sunder, or a journalist at the BBC to help you with this. Unfortunately, posh cunts always think they can just wing it.
Nigel Farage claims "Look at net migration numbers. Oh, it isn't good that net migration is coming down".

"Do you know why? Its because there is an exodus: those of a situation + a financial position to be fortunate to have a choice"

A v misleading exaggeration/narrative of falling net migration

Peter Mandelson. Honest. Loyal. Incorruptible.
Two weeks ago, Peter Mandelson told us he had no recollection of planning to buy a £2m apartment in Rio via a Panama holding company and a Brazilian company.

Yesterday we found notarised incorporation documents for the Brazilian company, with Mr Mandelson's signature.

We talk a lot about Epstein, but let's not to forget there are other networks of rich, influential men who look away and keep their mouths shut because it seems convenient.

The Starmer Ultras on here are rather like the die-hard Jeremy fans of 2019. Anyone who disagrees with them is clearly stupid. Their beloved leader's unpopularity is not due to bad policymaking, but to the media, smears and nefarious actors.

Good News for SE London.

One day there will be a reckoning for how Arsenal Football Club dealt with this case. And I’m afraid that includes the manager

If you're sorry that your choice of language offended some people (the woke, people with blue hair, liberals), you're not sorry at all. You're a reactionary prick.

A Labour government, trying hard to get the message out for Farage.
The Home Office now describes asylum seekers as "illegal immigrants [living in hotels]" with no reference to the reason that these people are in government-funded accommodation is that this government has taken & will process the asylum claim from them in 98-99% of cases of unauthorised entry.

The big tech founder whose 417-foot, $500 million superyacht needs a 256-foot, $75 million superyacht to "shadow" it -- because the bigger yacht lacks a helipad -- had to cut his paper's newsroom almost in half, for reasons
NEWS: The cuts were so severe that at least one department head asked to leave The Post rather than be included in the planning.

Peter Finn, The Post's international editor, requested that he be laid off once he learned about the scope of the cuts to his section.
