"Many of the scientists envisage a “semi-dystopian” future, with famines, conflicts and mass migration, driven by heatwaves, wildfires, floods and storms of an intensity and frequency far beyond those that have already struck"
This is not a distant future. This is within the lifetime of people now adult. We need to change course right now.

This is an important story for permacultue people. "The notches in the pattern are geographically disparate and murky, but they underscore one point: what oil was to the 20th century, food and water will be to the 21st – precious, geopolitically powerful and contested". https://www.
Gestern SF aus den 1970ern gelesen, die 2014-2019 spielt (Benford). Unsere nahe Vergangenheit kennt hier noch keine Personalcomputer, dafür 3D-Fernsehen, bemannte Raumfahrt, Triaden als anerkanntes Beziehungsmodell, Nacktheit als Modestatement, Privatflüge, aber Busse statt PKW (USA) und insgesamt eine eher krisenhafte globale Lage mit Hungersnöten und Verarmung.
Wäre interessant, das mal systematisch anzuschauen (also SF aus verschiedenen Dekaden, die jeweils 2010-2025 spielt).

Apple tries to position itself as the privacy champion with regard to AI but many questions remain with regard to the architecture they propose, for example how the "orchestration" will work, how private is "private cloud" and what independent checks/audits will be possible on what they propose.
Free Danish TV episode idea: After the election, Birgitte faces opposition from a smaller party in the winning coalition. Two MPs insist on a ban of all instant noodle products above a certain Scoville heat unit number, forcing Birgitte to negotiate throughout the night in a desperate attempt to save Greenland’s developing chili farming industry at the eleventh hour.

Google Assistant *used* to understand "remind me to do X 6 hours after 8 am today." It did it for me every day.
Now it doesn't.
Why? I have no idea, but it's probably due to trying to use more AI on the backend, and the AI is worse than whatever they were using before.
Computers were a mistake.

It's up to you whether you think that's worth it, but let's not pretend that we are currently stripping the planet bare for the sake of AI development. Almost everything else we do has a much bigger ecological impact.
Of course, it's still worth keeping an eye on, and it might explode in the future, but right now, environmental impact is not the biggest problem with AI.
Farage says that the UK is fourth in size in exports. This is true if you use goods and services.
Services are growing as the proportion of Exports and growing in value, Trade is shrinking both in value and proportion since leaving the EU.
