It is so incredibly irresponsible (I’m being generous) for @eNCA to have aired this segment. In a country where the majority fought and died for the right to vote, a country that has transformed BECAUSE people voted, this is ahistorical and dangerous.

The core argument of my latest article "There is no AI race" was that the "AI race" between the US and China is a manufactured narrative concocted by US tech companies to serve their corporate interests and to regulatory capture the US government (which is, over the medium/long term, against both US and the world's interests). This 👇 is pretty much the smoking gun. Article here: open.substack.com/pub/arnaudbert…

SCOOP: A pro-AI dark money group backed by a powerful super PAC funded by execs tied to Palantir and OpenAI, has been secretly paying influencers to push pro-AI, anti-China propaganda on TikTok and IG.

You cannot commit genocide in Gaza, invade Lebanon, bomb Iran, Syria, Yemen, and Iraq, violate Geneva and Vienna Conventions, international law, human rights, and state sovereignty, then hide behind anti-Semitism. There is no rise in anti-Semitism. There is a rise in the number of people who are very angry at what Israel is doing. Your inability to separate the two is equally problematic.

A fiery speech by South Africa's🇿🇦 EFF leader Julius Malema, over xenophobic attacks targeting foreign nationals. “You say Zimbabweans take your jobs. Nigerians take your jobs. You march, close shops and beat up people. Tell us after doing that how many jobs have you created, by beating up these Nigerians, Zimbabweans and Ghanaians? You beat people because they took your jobs. You close a shop that hires people. How many have you created after beating and chasing them? Unskilled men, with no skills, none whatsoever, say somebody took away their jobs. I don't want your votes if you behave like that. Take them away. Pushing out of school an African child that looks like you, I will never do that. You can take your votes. Make me die with my conscience very clearly. I will never refuse a pregnant woman of African descent to give birth in the clinics of South Africa. Never!”

Yesterday, a federal judge barred Elon Musk's lawyers from arguing that AI could threaten humanity in his lawsuit against OpenAI. OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit focused on developing AI safely. But our recent @NewYorker investigation documented how some researchers at the company have raised concerns about safety being sidelined.

Congratulations to Westminster Council for their acceptance of Banksy’s brilliant statue near Pall Mall. Let’s hope it stays — a welcome note of calmness and humour at a time of growing extremism.

Banksy confirmed on social media that a statue that appeared in central London of a man striding off a plinth, with his face blinded by a billowing flag, is one of their works. abcnews.visitlink.me/u3i8U5

Banksy has unveiled a new sculpture of a man stepping off a stone base with his face obscured by a flag. The overnight installation in Waterloo Place, London, was revealed in a video shared by the artist, and has drawn fans of his politically charged works.

Last night, Israeli forces intercepted and boarded a humanitarian aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters off the coast of Greece — unlawfully detaining more than 175 people, including several New Yorkers. My team has been in direct contact with State and Federal partners as we work to confirm the whereabouts and conditions of these New Yorkers. This is a brazen violation of international law. Those detained must be released.

Our silent protest album over AI & copyright is on display in the V&A ⬇️ Huge credit to the 1000+ musicians involved. Government proposed weakening copyright law to benefit AI companies - still so thrilled they shelved that plan. Don’t legalise theft!

A new victory for Palestinian digital rights: after direct pressure from @7amleh , Microsoft was forced to reverse Bing’s mapping of the occupied West Bank — removing “Judea & Samaria, Israel” and restoring Palestinian geography. This is not technical. It is political. “Judea & Samaria” is an annexation term — used to erase Palestine and normalize Israeli control over occupied land. What was imposed digitally is part of the same system reshaping the land: erasure, displacement, annexation. And the questions remain: Who built this system of digital erasure? What data and actors sustained it? Why did it stand until Palestinian pressure forced change? We didn’t just remove their name. We restored ours. Fixing labels is a victory. Accountability means ending digital complicity in annexation. aa.com.tr/en/world/micro…

Absolute bombshell. Expert journalist Courtney Bonneau completely dismantles Donald Trump's fake narrative. While Trump claims to free Lebanon, she confirms Israeli army is systematically murdering civilians & journalists using American tax dollars. Tax money is financing crimes.

BREAKING: Maryland becomes first state to ban AI ‘dynamic pricing’ in grocery stores. This means 49 other states still allow it. Dynamic pricing already runs airlines, hotels, and rideshares. Groceries are the next frontier. Here's how it works: Grocery stores use AI, digital price tags, and cameras to track YOUR behavior. Then they set the price based on what they think YOU will pay. Not what the item is worth. AI technology is making this possible: - Digital shelf tags that update in real time - Aisle cameras that track shopper behavior - Apps that shift from search-based to predictive - AI that learns your purchase history, income signals, and price ceiling - Real-time cart tracking to spot when demand is surging The store's AI takes all of that and figures out YOUR price. Not the market price. Not a fair price. YOUR price, based on what you're willing to pay. This is terrifying. This manipulation is pure greed. Maryland just banned it. The Protection from Predatory Pricing Act makes it the first state to outlaw dynamic pricing in grocery stores. Technology should serve us. We should not serve technology.

After they closed my wife’s bank account as a new tool to intimidate me, she tried to open a new account, but it was rejected! Targeting family members constitutes an arbitrary interference with family life, which is protected under Article 17 of ICCPR and Article 12 of UDHR.
