We should start calling ai what it really is. Doing maths with data. Some maths given certain data sets can identify possibly cancerous cells.

It's entirely possible that George Russell hits a run of good form and good luck. Kimi Antonelli has a bad patch and the title gets decided on whether the last two races in the Middle East take place or not. #F1

Birmingham's ok. But the adulation Ozzy Osborne continues to receive speaks volumes about our paucity of top-level celebrities.

Every now and then I see myself referred to as an "AI Denier" and I want to be clear I acknowledge "AI" exists, it's just I think it's a massive energy drain, created from theft, implemented poorly for inappropriate tasks by loathsome tech executives who get hard at the idea of the rest of us dying

So we are just going to let an industry continue that itself admits to there being a 10% change it could kill all humans?! This is utter insanity! How can we tolerate even a 1% chance of human extinction? Why do we allow these techbros to continue like this? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Lucifer has an idea. Jacob Epstein's masterpiece in Birmingham Art Gallery and Musuem. #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Photography #Art #UrbanPhotography #Birmingham
Black and white photo taken from a low angle of Jacob Epstein's sculpture titled 'Lucifer', at the Birmingham Art Gallery and Museum. A bright light shines just above Lucifer's head as if he's had an idea. It's me playing on the legend that Lucifer was the angel of light before his fall and expulsion from heaven. Epstein gave this sculpture a sexy, pert bum, for those of you interested in this sort of detail.
