Two British journalists have recently been taken off the air, apparently for questioning foreign politicians in a manner that displeased them. Ann Moody reports on the strange disappearance of Belle Donati and Sangita Myska.
Futurism on fears that AI may eat itself: "As CEOs trip over themselves to invest in artificial intelligence, there's a massive and growing elephant in the room: that any models trained on web data from after the advent of ChatGPT in 2022 are ingesting AI-generated data — an act of low-key cannibalism that may well be causing increasing technical issues that could come to threaten the entire industry."

I notice that on Ann Moody article that the politicians were both from Israel. Does the Israeli govnt have undue influence on our media? Equally. I understand, that LBC is owned by an Israeli.
