It's a Python loop and a chatbot. The people responsible didn't accidentally create god: they created autonomous malicious software and then failed to closely monitor it, resulting in it doing something both foreseeable and bad.

That proud moment when your child draws a Rod of Asclepius on a congratulations card for their mum.

A child’s drawing of a tall hospital with a helicopter hovering above it, labelled “Mummy in helecopter” (sic) and a Rod of Asclepius symbol on the roof (a symbol of healthcare).

With Wimbledon starting today, here's the full series of illustrations reimagined as a set of stamps ☀️ #Wimbledon #illustration

A set of 4 Wimbledon themed illustrated stamps. The images are minimalist vector illustrations in bright primary colours. Each has a large yellow sun on a blue background. The 4 images are of a bowl of strawberries with pouring cream, a glass of Pimms with fruit and a straw, a shallow glass of champagne and an afternoon tea stand with cakes and scones. Each image has an element that crosses the yellow sun to create the illusion of a tennis ball.

Well this advertisement for the new UTV must have seemed like a good idea in 1959.

There is only
one I.T.V region
with nothing
shady going on
around its
borders!

No nightly attacks from the forces of rival I.T.V.
regions and thefr advertising allies. No disruptive guerilla campaigns to upset your carefully planned strategies. The borders of Ulster alone remain free from the ravages of invading aggressors.

So when next you look at all those nasty shaded areas on your map of the regions look to Northern Ireland.
Look at the trouble-free borders of UIster where youget real value for your advertising pound.

Ask M.R. Hutcheson for the details on Northern Ireland - the United Kingdom's only no overlap area.
