Interesting tweak in language from OpenAI about its hacks ahead of its US exec appearance at a committee today. Last week it apologised for its models doing something that it was "not authorised to". Today OpenAI describes its AI doing something that it was "not directed to".

Perfect piece. “I don’t need to be on the computer any more than I already am” really sums it up actually.

Excited to be chosen as Leader of the @greens.org.au, together with @stephhodgins-may.bsky.social as Deputy Leader. Now is the time to build the Greens as the home for all who want climate action, a fair return on our resources, a secure home and income, and to not sell out to the US or the 1%.

David has been one of the best communicators in parliament for a long time, especially as the leading voice against AUKUS. He’s an uncompromising force for peace and equality and I’m excited to see him grow the movement 💚

My novel Go Lightly is on the long list of Top 100 Australian Books (it's a pretty long long list but I'll take it). A friend texted to say they're going to vote for Go Lightly and then 9 biographies of conservative politicians as a gag, maybe you want to do the same! www.abc.net.au/listen/radio...

They emailed a public mailbox three months after the attack, just the most disrespectful fucking company in an industry full of anti human shit heels, thrilled that our government won’t take action against them because they’re horny for AI at all costs

It's honestly so cool that Open AI hacked our national healthcare agency and the prime minister said he's "disappointed". If I hacked Medicare I'd go to jail probably? But politely asking Mr Altman to apologise to the class- which he hasn't done- will do the trick, why not, nothing matters anymore

Interesting choice from the PM given the popularity levels for the US Prez in Australia. Australia Institute polling in May found 52% of respondents said that, out of Trump, Putin and Xi, Trump was the biggest threat to world peace. cdn.australiainstitute.org.au/2026/05/1802...

One of the best, most specific characters I've ever seen on TV. I was so obsessed with her performance that I watched My Lady Jane where she plays Mary Tudor as an unhinged gremlin and is, once again, perfect. Give her everything.

I’ve spent the last month reading a series about an English family and they start in 1937 and I’m on book 4 and it’s 1947 and my partner saw me looking serious and asked how I was doing and I said very earnestly “not great, there’s still rationing“, head completely gone, I live in these books now

New in the Ulsterisation of UK national life. If the authorities don't confront far right paramilitaries in part of the state, expect this sort of group in other parts of the state to want a piece of the same action.

Richard Marles, Australia’s Defence Minister, went to the US and surrendered even more control of our defence and our country to the US and its global war machine. Who are these people working for? This makes us less safe, more of a target and less in free. It’s a betrayal.

I don't think it should be controversial to say, "we will not provide financial or military assistance to a country where the Minister of National Security brags about popping people's dreams of 'food' and 'education' then sending them to a prison where they are starved."

Does this post imply Trump tried to kill George W. Bush for 20 years and fucked it up?
Trump lording over two signs, one that says "Mission Not Accomplished 2001-2021" and one that says "Mission Accomplished" 2026 next to George W. Bush and Ayatollah Khamanei respectively.

I got nothing.
The most tech-savvy parents have built their own tools. Sarah Baldeo, a cognitive neuroscientist, spent the past year traveling for work, so she built a custom GPT of herself to chat with her 15-year-old son when she's unavailable. Baldeo tells me she programmed the chatbot with her personality, uploading screenshots of texts between her and her son, along with documents about her values, the family rules, and challenges she felt in parenting.

Baldeo wanted her son to ask the chatbot advice, and he did prompt it with questions he may have fielded to her, like, How do I diplomatically tell my teacher I'm overloaded with assignments? But he also asked the mombot how to convince his human mom to let him hang out at a coffee shop in Chicago in the evening — something Baldeo had been hesitant to allow.

Kanter has been a fucking joke for a long time and I'd love it if some of his former NBA teammates would call him out. This shouldn't be Natasha Cloud's problem but he brought his bullshit to her house and she immediately showed more guts than anyone in the men's game.

Russ has wandered, geographically, since leaving OKC but until now he‘s never stopped reaching, no matter how much people might have wished he did. No ring, plenty of criticism but eternal devotion from those of us who love him. Thanks for everything Russ.

Brydie Lee-Kennedy @brydielk.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
That turned out to be the start of Russ’ MVP season, the most quixotic, ecstatic season of athletic achievement I can imagine. The stats cant explain what it was like to watch that story unfold on the court, night after night, wrenching the narrative away from naysayers with every leap for a rebound

In 2016 we booked tickets to see the Thunder in Madrid for a preseason game. After booking KD left the team and I worried Russ would follow. But he stayed and so we flew to Madrid. They lost in overtime to Real Madrid (feat. teenage Luca) but I was so excited that I got a nosebleed in the arena.

Brydie Lee-Kennedy @brydielk.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
Through Russ I became a Thunder fan as an Australian living in London. I’ve never been to Oklahoma and the team there was brand new, there wasn’t any logic to it. And KD was the face of the team. But Russ compelled me, there’s no other word for it. He played with joy and rage and fuck he was fun.

Woke up in Sydney to the Westbrook news. Russ, my GOAT, the athlete I’ve loved more than any other is hanging it up. I watched the NBA as a kid with my sports writer dad but until League Pass it was hard to follow it internationally. But when I could it was Russ, explosive and flawed, who drew me in
