BBC persists in referring to trans and non-binary individuals as "biological X who identify as X". It's a line routinely used by gender critical groups to dismiss trans and non-binary individuals' identities.
That framing has been shown to cause distress. It definitely isn't "unbiased reporting".

It's not actually a mystery is it? It's a project that despises curiosity, difference, intellectual inquiry, humanity, complexity, difficulty, compassion, soul - and exalts crude and charmless displays of wealth and power. It is tacky, hateful, boorish and stupid - of course it makes shit art lol

Apart from the difference in art (the kids stuff radiates joy a life and the ai stuff is just dead on arrival) the kids experience something while doing it. That experience is communicated in the art too. Art isn’t just the end result.
The kids actually made animals that don't exist. The AI just put a bunch of stuff that already exists together into a polished slop blender. You can't get a better illustration of why AI can't create anything new while human creativity is bottomless.

Always PR appealing to emotion, never workable legislation.
Any law named after a child is usually rubbish and only on the statute book due to politicians following the wishes of breakfast TV presenters.

BREAKING: Keir Starmer tells Labour MPs that he is "not prepared to walk away" from power or "plunge us into chaos" as previous prime ministers have done.

Is Starmer going to post pictures of himself with a beaming grin as he calls this guy to congratulate him, or is that reserved for fascists like Trump, Meloni and Le Pen?

Any time I look to see what the Labour government is up to in the UK it turns out to be things like making posters that Alfonso Cuarón put in the background of the long tracking shot that opens “Children of Men”.

So it’d be super-awkward if this whole government had been Peter’s project from day one, because it’d be riddled with this stuff top to bottom. The whole thing would be built on backhanders for secretly negotiated policy, wouldn’t it.

The party is trying to shift conversation after the NEC blocked Andy Burnham from fighting the seat
Good morning and welcome to our live coverage of UK politics. The Labour party has accused the Green party leader Zack Polanski of being cowardly for not standing in the Gorton and Denton byelection on 26 February.
In an interview with The Observer, the Labour party’s chair, Anna Turley, said the fact Salford-born Polanski did not stand showed the Greens lacked “confidence” to do so. Continue reading...

Yeah, and the current one is indistinguishable from them in everything he says and does, so what's your point?
