It’s the 50th anniversary of the time Eric Clapton went onstage and told everyone who wasn’t British to leave the room and the country, and was the impetus for Rock Against Racism
The booing of what sounds like a foreign (and no doubt in the man's mind, 'Islamic') name, really speaks volumes about the mindset of some Trump supporters. Even when Trump is gone, this white Christian nationalist section of US society will still remain.

Mate, if you can't do your job without AI then I can pay a teenager minimum wage to use it, and you're out on your arse. Learn to think for yourself. Google stuff. Or DuckDuckGo it, whatever.

Just seen the Deki and Mo training video, and I have to inform you that the domestic treble is a certainty.
Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.
America’s chain of command is just billionaires tugging on Trump’s leash from different directions.
I'm glad it's been declined. It's a sadly familiar routine perpetrators trying to use victims to launder their reputation. If someone genuinely wants to make amends they do so quietly and on the victim's terms. They don't trumpet their plans to meet in the media. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
So if you earn 100k net a year for 10 years you'll end up with a million quid in your account will you? Has the chancellor been told about this? This could send shockwaves through the economist community.

The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com · 21h agoNew York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

You can't argue against this. We simply have to ignore these people or we will be finished. There isn't enough time to fix the world AND convince them that we're right to do so.

Writing fiction in any genre should be a purely human exercise. If you use AI to generate *any* dialog, story ideas, character shapes, *anything* creative, you're betraying the very concept of artistic expression. This is a bright flashing red line for me. www.wired.com/story/the-bi...

Puck’s Matthew Belloni says AI has quietly become part of everyday filmmaking. The battle now isn’t whether Hollywood will use the technology—it’s who controls what’ll come next.

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?
