Today, at Microsoft, I unveiled a bold vision for the modernisation of our criminal justice system. And who better to witness this future than those shaping it? The front row was filled with visionary content creators, the very leaders of our digital era.

Love it.

Tech companies will have to remove intimate images shared without consent within 48 hours under new law. Companies that don't act could be blocked in the UK.

New Delhi calling! 🇮🇳 Heading to the Global AI Summit in India to promote the UK’s leading role in the industry. Asking for a friend…do AI characters count as hand luggage?

Palantir Technologies CEO Alex Karp couldn’t stay seated in his chair as he proudly stated, “We kill people sometimes,” while speaking to shareholders. Maniac.

“Action this day” would be a good motto for this Prime Minister when it comes to AI. There’ll never be a quiet week when he can turn to it, so he must just get on with it. We must move quicker if our country is to flourish. thetimes.com/business/compa…

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph. I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them. The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry. And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children. But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.

Right about everything. @realDonaldTrump






Keir Starmer is the Theresa May of the Labour Party. If we follow the logic of what happened in the Tory Party: Labour members will ultimately replace Starmer with their favourite Angela Rayner, much as Theresa was replaced by Boris. She will fail to achieve anything as the strings will still be pulled by the Labour illuminati and the British deep state. Labour MPs will tire of this and will eventually crown Wes Streeting, the Rishi Sunak, of the Labour Party - who is a creature of the system. Nothing will change and Labour will be crushed in the 2029 election. NB there is no Labour Liz Truss!
