Microsoft has launched a call for proposals called, honest to god, "AI and Jobs: Designing for Augmented Work." Setting aside the usual puke-inspiring AI garbage that's all over the call, who the hell wants "augmented" work? Could we have reduced work instead?
Protect and serve ... who exactly?

Nothing in the humanities academe is simultaneously so awe-inspiring and dispiriting as going through applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position. What a profoundly broken world in which none of these people have permanent jobs.
Honestly still can't believe that they now launched a phone with a stylus and a laptop with a touchscreen.
I miss the Steve Jobs era so much. Hopefully some day they'll find back. Maybe when the AI bubble deflates a lot of pain will eventually drive the whole tech industry to actually innovate and think about amazing products for, you know, human beings again instead of being a money extraction quasi-scam. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wenn es so weitergeht wie bisher, fordert die deutsche Autoindustrie ab 2029 eine Verbrennerpflicht für Neuwagen ab 2035.

Its sad that we'll never know what happened this morning in the parallel world and alternate reality where the Green Party defeated Labour in Holborn.
Would Labour still have announced they're going to open oil-fields in a world already warmed by 1.5 degrees?
As I say, sadly we'll never know.
We do know that opening the oil fields will contribute towards that warming, that it won't reduce energy costs for UK citizens, that it won't increase energy independence, and that it will create fewer jobs than a similar investment in renewable energy industry and that those jobs will be more dirty, dangerous, and bad for the employee's heath.
So why do it?
One can only assume The Labour Party donors must benefit in some way.
