AI should stay away from writing, should never be allowed to take responsibility and should never provide judgements. Used with care, it can be useful for search, data analysis and data organisation. Words matter. Our society will be poorer if we weaken words by letting machines corrupt them. 2/3

We love this from our Vice President Shaparak Khorsandi, author of Scatter Brain, Kissing Emma, Nina Is Not OK and A Beginner's Guide to Acting English. #HumanistBookshelf
‘The humanist perspective is a profound and inspiring one – and it’s not just a modern perspective. Through the centuries and all around the world, people have looked to reason and to science in place of superstition and sought to make the most out of the one life they have. It’s crucial that this voice is heard.’ Shaparak Khorsandi

The policy is deterrence. Much like the poorhouses of old that provided the bare minimum & humiliated people, the idea is to make it so shameful that people will do anything not to be unemployed. For centuries, the Tories fail or refuse to understand that people aren't lazy & this isn't a lifestyle.

Instagram account 'physicsuncovered' - who published this photo - helpfully added: "This image is a modern digital composite, not a historical photograph." 😁😁😁
This is a rare photo of Donald Trump from 1934, helping Albert Einstein finish the theory of relativity. According to Trump, Einstein had been stuck for weeks.

"Very smart guy. Terrible with numbers. I looked at the board and said, Albert, put a little 2 up there. He loved it."

It shows a photoshopped image of Einstein with Trump in front of a blackboard filled with mathematical calculations.
