I’m guessing this isn’t a new idea. Does anyone have any links as to why this reclassification hasn’t been done by previous governments? I find it hard to believe that some junior intern has only just suggested the idea to the government in the last week.

In his defence, the Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom has to meet with and negotiate with all kinds of unsavoury cunts across the globe. It kinda goes with the territory.

This is also, however, the same David Lammy that when questioned about calling for a vote on assisted dying and whether he would respect his constituent’s preference for a vote said, “I will follow my faith and vote against it because I believe in the sanctity of life under God” (paraphrasing but pretty much this). That’s not how you represent people you smarmy dick.

Unfortunately I think the calculation Lammy is doing is how many votes and how much money Labour will lose if they took a principled stance against Israel’s actions in the Middle East.

Open thread… nope on comments. 🤣

Six times income! Fucking heck.

Build more houses you bastards!

Wasn’t it a case of them ordering Elon to comply with the law, he played silly buggers with them by meming a response, so they started to take his assets away and he was like… wait no shocked Pikachu I will comply.

What do they have against the Bee Gees?

You have to understand that these articles and especially the discourse on the internet are full of hyperbole and overreaction.

Surprised that Ireland isn’t on this list. Surely they need loads of data centres for all the US companies they shield from taxes 😉.

You can use OpenOffice which hasn’t adopted any new UI since 1998.

Wait… Labour?

This is clearly a piss take list.

When I think of Britishcore anything European I think of closet racism, pro-imperialism, an unearned sense of exceptionalism and general classism. But that’s just me.

Fixed that for you.

All your points apply to the entire European continent. 😉

Breaking the rules is still breaking the rules. The guardian can report on both.

Exactly. Love the username BTW.

I bet you he’s got Oasis tickets as well.

The best use of AI at the moment is to act as a tool to quickly search and present data quicker than humanly possible. Not to act upon the findings blindly.

It’s not as easy to say anyone using AI should be fired. There needs to be a more nuanced approach to this. It wholly depends on what the GP did with the information it presented.

An example: back in the day GPs had a huge book of knowledge they would defer to that was peer researched and therefore trusted. If you came in with an odd symptom they’d spend time (often in front of you) flipping through the book to find that elusive disease they read about that one time at university. Later that knowledge moved to a traditional search engine. Why wouldn’t you now use AI to make that search faster? The AI can easily be trained on this same corpus of knowledge.

Of course the GP should double check what they are being told. But simply using AI is not the problem you make it out to be. If you have a corpus of knowledge and the GP uses this in a dangerous way then the GP should be fired. But you don’t then burn the book they found this information from.

This gonna turn into a Blade episode for sure .

Maybe they will ask nicely? The missing diplomacy.

Do you realise how much tea stains?

Arrrrrgggghhhg!

Maybe stop funding them with US tax dollars?
