UN forecasts that on the current trend we're heading for a 2.6 degree increase in global temperatures from global warming. We're experiencing the level of extreme weather we have at the moment from just a 1.6 degree rise! www.ft.com/content/3014...

I will say it is funny watching OpenAI boast about solving a complex math problem using millions of dollars of compute (and someone else’s work) all while remaining unable to solve the most obvious math problem (how to make their services profitable)

Last week, I watched someone use AI to complete tasks analysing CVs on the train. They fed each CV to the AI with a copy and paste prompt and then sat on their phone as the AI did it's work. Before AI, they would have used their brain for the whole task, but now they could switch off.

The frustrating thing is you're allowed to pursue these policies (even though they're bad) and assert the state's monopoly on violence at the same time. There's no reason the government has to be cowed by these thugs except for their own cowardice.

They can write stories about how this guy and his band are a product on media hype and clever PR but the clever PR only works because he's unbelievably good! Listen to Try as I May on your streaming service tidal.com/track/402947...

Honestly, I think the hardest part of being a full time employed adult is finding the time to do all of the things I want to do, including the parts of my job I love but never get the time to truly master.

This, in the same week that NI Assembly MLA expenses revealed that some of our MLAs are expensing premium subscriptions to X. For shame!

I think every fucking discussion about AI should be about how it was used to undress women before it was used for any useful purpose

Appreciate this is 'make it make sense' howling into the void, but the failure (with some exceptions) of government, politicians, media, and business to point at the heatwaves and fires and state 'this is why climate action matters' is a serious problem. www.businessgreen.com/blog-post/45...

Wrote about the deafening silence on our summer of climate impacts from Labour, the Lib Dems, the Greens, business leaders, and even some campaign groups. The dominant climate discourse from the past week has been from those who want to ditch net zero targets and trash decarbonisation policies.

Around 400,000 cattle are killed in Northern Ireland every year. What happened to these poor creatures was horrific but it's not much different to what happens behind closed doors. Any of the people complaining who also eat cows are just upset that they had to see it.

It's a point I've been trying to make for a long time: there is no good way to meet even 10% of current demand for animal products. They trash the living world, whichever way you do it. If you want to reduce your impact, switch to a plant-based diet. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It's pretty sick for Europe to be suffering these massive climate-change-induced wildfires while the EU and member states are loosening environmental protections and climate measures. I really hope that this summer acts as a wake-up call.
