Labour now briefing young people won't get the same minimum wage uplift. Even Starmer didn't break this pledge. Workers rights mean same rights, pay & conditions, same rate for the same job. What does this Labour government have against young people? inews.co.uk/news/politic...

it’s funny how anti-AI people will talk about how “AI” is a really broad umbrella term and that we need to keep in mind that there are lots of types of “AI”, but then they are always the first ones to jump to wild conclusions about what kind of AI I’m referring to when I say “AI” lol
my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

there's a burger chain in toronto that sells "california style" burgers, which means that the buns are inverted. not a thing in california. im losing my mind at how stupid this fuckin burger looks. i can't believe they sell this as a regional specialty.

When I said I was concerned about advanced conversational AI, I probably should have clarified that I’m actually good with them so long as they are easily identifiable as a non-human. I think Mistral’s latest demo looks good.
New advanced voice model from Jack Dorsey / Block that is made specifically for conversations. Called Dessa. Pretty spooky if it’s as good as the sample demos they published here. Her, the movie, has arrived? block.xyz/dessa
