London's giant AI artwork to be torn down
The bizarre story of why a much-talked-about creation is being torn down. Plus: Docklands Light Railway extension, giant laser stalks the night sky, and more tales of Android phone theft rejection.

An honest, stark and heartfelt interview with Steve McQueen on prostate cancer. Well worth the read. If you're a man over forty and especially if you have African heritage, insist on the PSA test and an examination once a year. 🙏 www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...
