If you try, however, I will rearrange your sentence in the edit.

Jane Austen used 'however' at the beginning of a sentence, and so can you.

Also, who called it The Odyssey and not Batman v Spider-Man?

It's a year and a half after i highlighted the issue, but nice to see: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

what could go wrong with running betting markets like this?

Putting everything else aside, why would they be humanoid? Surely there are more practical shapes for whatever the factories will produce.

Can somebody please introduce him to a hippo and what they do with their shit?

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

Can someone please tell the house spider that has emerged from wherever and is now hanging out by my bedside table that they’re not scheduled for arrival until at least September

The Biclops

French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story. It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war. These fuckers really are vile bastards 😡😡

Now THAT's a headline

Come to Oxford! Not only do we have potholes in our roads, we also have them in our pavements.

“Apparently there’s one thing that can never be said enough: AI, whether agentic or not, can only act within the parameters that have been set. It doesn’t have consciousness, agency, or will.”

The OpenAI and Anthropic containment breaches are a bit spooky, but also quite silly

An AI leaving notes to future versions of itself is pure sci-fi; forgetting to lock down an environment is prosaic

BIO-DIMBLEBY HAS DEFEATED “INFANTINO”

In a hypothetical Muppet Odyssey, the no-name crewmembers should all be pigs. Then Circe turns them into humans with thick Boston accents, and we get a Matt Damon cameo.

Anthropic's turn for a "whoops, we accidentally did a cyber breach". It's worth taking a moment, though, to remember that these programs are just that – software. They may be acting autonomously, but that doesn't make them self aware. It's people who are responsible www.itpro.com/security/ant...

Anthropic joins OpenAI in admitting loss of control in cybersecurity tests

The company found Claude AI had escaped containment three times and targeted other organizations

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they executed Nigel Farage's poll lead/the Republican Party/Gianni Infantino/Lionel Messi/the SpaceX share price/everyone who thought The Odyssey would flop because it was too woke

Just saw The Odyssey. Casting Matt Damon as Leopold Bloom was brave, but it really worked. Tom Holland good as Stephen Dedalus too. Anne Hathaway brilliant as Molly, but wish they had not cut her soliloquy. Wasn’t familiar with which bits of Dublin they used, but that didn‘t seem to matter.

Two 18-year-old hikers found themselves lost while hiking in the Pyrenees, trying to reach lac d’Estom. Turns out, ChatGPT had taken them to the wrong valley

Hey Internet, I'm looking for a favour: - Anyone who is or knows doctors or healthworkers who operate in the UK and would like to talk about their experiences working during heatwaves... please DM me Thank you in advance!

I am very much regretting reading this in public 😭

Just loving how John Cleese, now reduced to one of his own caricatures, rages about immigrants coming to the UK and failing to accept "our" culture, from his home in ... (checks notes) ... Nevis in the Caribbean.

This shouldn’t be allowed. There’s no point in building tons of new houses if private investment groups are allowed to hoover them up.

Eleventh anniversary today of this measured and rational headline

Absolutely shocking news from Redidit: Film expert drops insider bombshell that Odyssey may make less in its second weekend than it did in its first. Which is absolutely unheard of for big-budget films, which usually take in more every week until the world eventually runs out of money.
