UNESCO welcomes the encyclical Magnifica Humanitas by @Pontifex on “safeguarding the human person in the time of AI”: 
vatican.va/content/leo-xi… At a time of rapid change and disruption, our position is clear: technology must advance human rights — not erode human dignity. Pope Leo XIV’s call to uphold the primacy and dignity of humanity resonates deeply with @UNESCO’s work. It aligns closely with the adoption of UNESCO’s 2021 Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the first global framework of its kind, which now guides policies in more than 80 countries and is grounded in a fundamental principle: AI must serve people. This encyclical is a powerful reminder that beyond innovation and technological trends, we need direction. Beyond capability, we need responsibility. As we look ahead to the AI Dialogue and the AI for Good Conference with @ITU and @UN partners next July, this message comes at a pivotal moment to help shape global AI governance on human terms. unesco.org/en/artificial-…

London is the greatest city in the world but one thing it does lack is a good beach. If we're gonna have more days like this we should 1) clean up the water and 2) build a big beach in inner London accessible by tube. (NYC did this in the 1930s) How about along the shore here

Zachodnia Ukraina. Zamek Podhorce„palazzo in fortezza”, wybudowany w latach 1635–1640 przez hetmana Stanisława Koniecpolskiego. Pałac był symbolem potęgi i zamiłowania do sztuki elit I Rzeczypospolitej. Kolejni właściciele – Sobiescy, Rzewuscy, Sanguszkowie – sprowadzili do rezydencji setki obrazów, broń spod Wiednia, meble królewskie i pamiątki narodowe. Oczywiście nic już w zamku nie zostało.
