Is Old Trafford sold out today? Looks like a quite a few empty seats on the highlights? Same as last year?

Marginal efficiency from AI adoption? Surely not…
Will a big 99 do?
Fair point. Rashid is the only other guaranteed spot and he’s not going to be skipper. It’s a shallow pool of choices.
Really? He seems like an idiot quite a lot of the time.
The champions trophy is demonstrating that a one sided 50 over match is more boring than in any other format? Four innings end quickly in 1st class and a T20 is, erm, shorter.

This is an interesting discussion about the trends and realities of working from home in 2025. The economics and evidence of benefits are pretty clear but adoption is patchy. And then there’s the culture war and old middle aged white guys in charge…

Watch this. And then watch it again.
More AI hubris or just another journey up the learning curve? Was this engineer getting a useful set of performance reviews? www.theregister.com/2025/01/23/a...
Behind the scenes, the company was also quietly dismantling a system to prevent the spread of misinformation. When the company announced on Jan. 7 that it would end its fact-checking partnerships, the company also instructed teams responsible for ranking content in the company’s apps to stop penalizing misinformation, according to sources and an internal document obtained by Platformer. The result is that the sort of viral hoaxes that ran roughshod over the platform during the 2016 US presidential election — “Pope Francis endorses Trump,” Pizzagate, and all the rest — are now just as eligible for free amplification on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads as true stories.
NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...
Canada is uphill no?

Behind the alignment of X and Meta with Trump is a cold business logic — and a position of weakness rather than strength

Lots of irresponsible folks out there it seems.
I am furious that no one insisted I listen to the Bill Evans Trio before. What were you all doing?

Firstly, apologies for sharing a troll based clickbait but...
Is synthetic data the answer? It makes me twitchy...

Bubble deflating or actually bursting?

A strong contender for the best album I can think of.
This kind of hubris about AI makes me cross. (As cross as the deniers). The naivete of some #AI boosters is weird - the inevitability of scientific progress trumps any questions or concerns. Strong whiffs of arrogance as well.

Read this and tell me why we shouldn't let these greedy bastards go bankrupt.

Such a shame. I am hopeful that this can be overcome and you can express yourself freely soon.
Some statements of the obvious? How much of this is actually happening versus social media froth?

Number Crunching (from Private Eye) 5 years to rebuild Notre Dame 7.5 years since Grenfell and 85% of remediation work still not done.
This country needs to pull its finger out on many fronts.
I found this fascinating - the opportunities, risks and unknowns of AI generated video. Another leap - forwards? downwards?
(We already believe whatever we like - now we can invent it?).

Does Zak Crawley know? Does he really?
Fair point. The day out it an event in itself. It’s annoying as a TV viewer though and that might be a grater risk?
