Today's panel on AI was terrifying.
Yes, there's a risk AI will take loads of jobs and skew elections.
Most terrifying was watching senators prioritise jokes about whose state produced the best singer and cutting experts off after just a couple of words ... instead of listening
Breathtaking naivety from @LabourParty here to suggest private schools will absorb VAT instead of passing it on.
