"a worker earning £125,000..."
Sweet Jesus. The horror.
You didn't think much about the example chosen, did you?

This is a case of freedom of expression.
BBC should be free to air programs that scrutinise any political events and any political figures.
Editing a program badly isn't a reason to settle for silly amounts of money.
Trump didn't start legal proceedings, impossible to say if his case has merit.

Funny, nothing about the reasons: rampant European imperialism.
At least in Britain WWI is approached so tangentially that people gloss over about why it actually happened.

A lion allowing itself to be led by a donkey?... 🤔
British people have been fed snippets of popular wisdom that on analysis are very dubious. (An slogan for the occasion: Lest we forget... Vote Reform UK).
There were 16000 conscientious objectors in WWI that refused to join this pointless carnage.

Uh? WWI was about imperial dominance, fascists haven't entered the scene.
No country in WWI had a clear moral high ground. All powers were similarly despicable, they were fighting to decide who could keep exploiting other nations and peoples outside Europe.

So much tragedy and for what? UK invaded Iraq killing tens of thousands and criminalises people as terrorists for opposing a genocide.
UK didn't learn from waste of human life in WW1&2,now it's toying with giving power to a xenophobic political party and troubled by existence of Human Rights.

Sorry. No.
Edit's:school boy mistake.
Overreaction:silly.
BBC should've reprimanded documentary team, apologise and produce version adhering to better journalistic standards,nobody should have resigned.
Trump throws lawsuits for billions without any merit, BBC should have stood its ground.

You make the very silly assumption that the adoption rate will remain the same.
Economics of scale drives prices down and accelerates adoption.
There's nothing more satisfying to kick Putin wares out of your home and relying mostly on solar panels.

I just took a webinar with Amazon honchos and they implied their jobs losses were because AI.
Let's get real Economist: these people were teaching us how to make half a dozen professions redundant. Clearly they are preaching what they do.

No, I'm not what you say, you're not engaging with the arguments but attempting character assassination which doesn't diminish the arguments I've made (it's a logical fallacy btw, but clearly you aren't aware of it).

And please leave my ethics alone, you are part of an industry that has extended copyright well beyond what is fair to favour parties that have created nothing.

When somebody memorises a book or part of it there's a copy of sorts in brain of that person, she can obtain insight and create new knowledge out of that. You would never win a copyright violation case against such a person.
Having software doing the same will be difficult to class as infringement.

Your understanding of piracy is selective.
Somebody memorising one or part of one of your books and then using that knowledge for personal profit wouldn't be commiting copyright infringement.
It's odd then to say that such situation isn't valid if done by a LLM driving an AI app.

Working class is a necessary agent for capitalism to exist.
Without a working class goods couldn't be produced in mass, before capitalism was well established there wasn't really a working class except perhaps for guilds, but they were not really exploited by somebody with money systematically.

In Mexico all public schools are secular.
We are talking about one of the biggest Catholic countries, whoever doubts how devout people are they can witness one of the uncountable religious festivals. There religion is a private matter (many private schools have a religious slant, paid by clients).

I don't know what would be courageous about objecting strongly with Israel allowing this convicted criminal, supported by a foreign oligarch, to go there.
If it was me I would look if I can ground him in the UK. They do it with hooligans, why not him?
