Meta’s new AI sunglasses will help creeps record women without their consent. And then use the videos to train Mark Zuckerberg’s robots. God forbid these tech bros build something the world ACTUALLY F*ING NEEDS???
LOTS of questions about this. If we're to have ANY confidence in it, we need to see the algorithm published in full, & peer reviewed (just like existing NHS decision-making & advisory protocols). Also, some of the claims in this story rely upon metrics that/ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Musk continues to stoke race wars in the U.K. using his platform to do so. It’s feeble how little power we are exercising against X.

BBC Question Time now doing exact same with AI they did with Farage? This ‘expert’ panel on AI is a disgrace: not one critical voice. Gilbert works for Tony Blair to promote AI. Jones is govt chief AI booster (& Blair flunky). Riparbelli is industry. Gawdat is ex industry. And a Tory MP
Darren Jones MP@darrenpjones.bsky.social · 2mo agoLooking forward to talking about the future of the UK tomorrow on BBC Question Time and how we’re applying Labour values to the big challenges we face as a country. 👇
I hope this is meaningful regulation of the platforms as opposed to thinking a ban for under 16s will be a panacea (evidence from Australia suggests it won’t achieve anything much but it will compel the rest of us to give sensitive ID documentation to the platforms).

Privatisation of the NHS NHS spends record £241m outsourcing scan analysis to private firms. Private sector focused on profit, not service. Money buys less. Public purse depleted. NHS capacity not expanded. Why would it train staff? There is no public mandate for privatisation of the NHS.

Our democracy is literally being sold out from under us. Crypto billionaires putting their man in power to make a killing. It should be front page, headline news every day until the criminal investigation is underway. And Farage is banned from public office. www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-cameo-...

Wes Streeting having the chutzpah to tell the story about the NHS. He doesn't tell the bit about how much he's accepted from private healthcare and the risk our NHS is at under this Labour Government. And most of all, lots of questions about his meetings with Palantir. #BBCQT

Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.
Energy insecurity. Higher bills. Exposure to catastrophic economic consequences of Trump's wars. That's what happens when you fail to shift fast enough to renewables, and cut back on support for clean energy. Let's cut bills & create jobs through a clean power revolution.
