This this THIS RIGHT HERE
The worst case scenario isn’t “AI goes rogue and makes disastrous mistakes,” but a bunch of people at at AI startup over-promising what their systems can do, get handed access to critical systems, write sloppy prompts, code, and configurations, trigger a disaster, then trying to dodge responsibility by screaming about the Singularity and AGI, and flooding technically illiterate regulators with a massive tsunami of technobabble.

Your disturbing story from Sweden for the day - a class full of children under 9 drove a supply teacher out of the room by chanting racist and homophobic slurs at them. Very ugly behaviour has become very normalised as fascism has increased its grip here.

Plenty to reflect about re: the Arday affair, but I'm going to repeat this one thing. The playbook the right used here is effective even though it's not especially sophisticated, as it relies on the audience to do the dirty work.

London mayor Sadiq Khan blocks £50m Met police deal with Palantir
Exclusive: Scotland Yard had been in talks to use Palantir’s AI technology to automate intelligence analysis A £50m Met police deal with the controversial US tech company Palantir has been blocked by the London mayor, Sadiq Khan, with City Hall citing a “clear and serious breach” of procurement rules. Scotland Yard had been in talks, revealed by the Guardian last month, to use Palantir’s AI technology to automate intelligence analysis in criminal investigations. But Khan intervened on Thursday to stop the flagship contract, which would have been Palantir’s largest yet in British policing. Continue reading...

There's no debate which is improved by the intervention of Tony Blair. This is ableism. It frames anxiety, depression and ADHD as things people just need to get on with, with no acknowledgement of how damaging that attitude is, or how hard it can be to be recognised and diagnosed in the first place.

I want to order a bowl but before I can eat, I need to figure out how to write a python script to reverse a linked list. Can you help?
Anonymous User | 13:20:18
Great question! To reverse a linked list in Python, you can use an iterative approach.
Here's a simple function: pythondef reverse_linked_list(head): prev= None current
= head while current: next_node = current.next
current.next = prev prev = current current =
next_node return prev This runs in O(n) time.
Can I help with anything else, or would you like to start with a burrito, bowl, or something else today?
