Let me divert your attention away from TheTraitors, very briefly. Tomo on #wakeuptomoney we’ll chat about the Tesco boss predicting a (slightly) less boozy Xmas, with increased sales of lo and no-alcohol beverages. So tell me me - will you be part of that? Are you dreaming of a hangover-free Xmas?

So glad to have another foray in the culture wars to take into the holidays now your MAGA uncle can roll his eyes every time someone says “AI” at Thanksgiving dinner like it’s a deep, personal affront rather than an thing he had never considered until a week ago

Trump isn't just demanding that everyone call AI "super intelligence." He just tweeted that anyone who still uses the term artificial intelligence is "THE ENEMY."
