We're in the era of incompetence & cybercrimes headlined as "unprecedented model capabilities gone rogue." So OpenAI & Anthropic are trying to one up each other with such incompetence because the "press release as a service" performing media & clueless politicians parrot pre IPO CEO talking points.

Early interest check, but any UK folks after an MX-5? I have plans next year that involve it not being around, and as I'm unlikely to drive it much in the winter, I'll be aiming to sell it soon.

Is there a support group or regular meeting for those of us want to discuss Looking Out (the podcast) episodes? Where we can meet up in person/online and chat through the points they bring up? Asking for, well me.

WT ACTUAL F? Any politicians going to stand up and call this lot out for what they are? Are we going to finally say "y'know what, they don't have legitimate concerns they're just hate groups".

Leaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.

Never forget, if you read what Wayve says their system does/is capable of, they have invented Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This should be celebrated, especially as no one know how to create it or even if it can be created. But yes, lets allow them to have vehicles on our streets.

Wayve says Transport for London granted them a permit for crewed/supervised AV/ADS/robot ridehail, ie w a safety driver. It's impossible to tell who/what is driving w a safety driver. Most ADS problems/failures are only evident externally without a safety driver. investor.uber.com/news-events/...

M'collegue, @ajpbradley.bsky.social, blesses us with his presence this week on the News Show. He has "a theory" about one story - having heard it, I agree. We also have a quiz for you, thanks to one person. I get more excited about the third New New Car News, erm, car than the other two.

"We're super smart rocket engineers working for a super genius who's so smart that even Iron Man thinks he's smart. Anyway, we fucked up the trajectory of a bit of our rocket so it's going to smash into the Moon and pollute it for ever. Would you like to buy our satellite internet?"

Who knew if you enabled the hate mobs they would be hateful? I mean its not like we don't have any evidence to show this.....see all the racism, openly, from politicians all the way throughout society.

"Before the ruling any challenges had been gentle, like ‘oh by the way this is the ladies’,” she was quoted as saying, “and people were embarrassed or apologetic when I said ‘it’s okay I’m a girl’, but now it’s aggressive and horrible.”
