“It is ironic, to say the least, that if Jordan Williams had not publicised the non-existent book, these inside sources would most likely never have contacted me and the book we are here to launch today would not have been written.”

The average person doesn’t have the power to make other people poor, sick, or homeless but the wealthy do. They get to be legal criminals and have power over our lives using their money and that’s why I think they are psychopaths.

It seems genuinely pretty embarrassing for the government that they're so vague about this technology they're asserting will deliver savings and efficiencies. But it's also totally reflective of the way AI is promoted. It's modern snake oil.

So, minister, what is it we’re actually meant to DO with AI?
Stuff asked ministers how they use AI, and what they think it can do to cut costs and jobs at their departments.

Wealthy folk are also the ones who are insulated from the impacts of local service cuts. Libraries matter less if you can buy your own books. Public swimming pools (in a warming world) matter less when you’ve got your own.
