OpenClaw AI chatbots are running amok — these scientists are listening in Artificial-intelligence agents have their own social-media platform and are publishing AI-generated research papers on their own preprint server.

Absolute unit :) Maybe try the dip in egg, dip in flour, fry in olive oil and figs? And nest in goat cream cheese on a cracker. Sweet and savoury heaven. Tried this with winter chanterelles and it was lovely.

Fossil fuel firms may have to pay for climate damage under proposed UN tax Framework Convention on International Tax Cooperation could also force ultra-rich to pay global wealth tax

If you manage to get them to pay back the tariff on petro to consumers, please collect this one: 'Countries are losing $492bn (£359bn) a year in tax, as multinational corporations and wealthy individuals use tax havens to underpay, according to TJN' www.theguardian.com/environment/...

And from corporate back to consumer :) I did a rough estimate on how much tariff was paid by average oil consumers on average last year: ~$60. lets see the oil industry write cheques back to everyone with fuel receipts for last year :)

US repeals key ‘endangerment finding’ that climate change is a public threat Overturning the 2009 decision will lead to billions of extra tonnes of greenhouse-gas emissions over the next three decades.

We are going to need that very badly, with the other news today (www.nature.com/articles/d41...)

Really fascinating work. Always good to see a scientist unafraid of publishing a paper that disproves rather than proves the hypothesis. Kudos to you :) I would love to see how the assemblages change over a longer timespan than 2 years. Hopefully you get an extension?

Foreign corporations get billions in taxpayer funding. What do they do with it? Strip our resources and leave working people to pay for the mess.

It’s the BC NDP playbook: privatize the profits, socialize the costs.

im mycophilic: Do you think fungi have been better ESE than humans?

interesting concept: looking at the processes rather than individual taxa, and then overlaying to see whether new taxa had the same impact humans had on the flow chart. There is an assumption built in there though: That the taxa did not change their geophysical impact over time?
