AI safety expert Timnit Gebru says tech leaders are promoting greatly exaggerated claims about "superintelligence" and "existential risk" as a way to distract from the real threat — their own unregulated companies.

Tilda Swinton is writing a memoir. But get this: it’s a little different from the normal celeb tell-all. ‘Material Evidence’ will eschew linear narrative, instead examining Swinton’s life through a series of objects.

Crypto’s efforts to buy politicians are spreading outside the US. In the UK, over $100 million in crypto money has flowed into Nigel Farage’s far-right Reform UK party, courtesy of Tether-linked billionaire Christopher Harborne and BitMEX’s Ben Delo (pardoned by Trump last year).
![Outside the US
The crypto industry's efforts to buy politicians are metastasizing. Some ten-figure donations from crypto billionaires to Reform UK’s Nigel Farage caused outcry in British politics in late 2024 and throughout 2025, as he accepted around £17 million ($22.4 million) across several contributions from Tether-linked British–Thai citizen Christopher Harborne [I98, 102, 105]. The contributions prompted discussion among the UK government over whether to ban large political contributions from British citizens who live overseas.
That conversation has been renewed as the Reform party has accepted contributions amounting to £72 million ($97 million) — half from Harborne, and the other half from BitMEX founder Ben Delo.36 Delo and other BitMEX cofounders were charged in the US in 2020 for violations of anti-money laundering laws; Delo ultimately was sentenced to probation and paid a $10 million fine. In 2025, Delo and the other BitMEX cofounders were pardoned by President Trump [I81].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:exrxvyu6bpoym6mbnctke5tn/bafkreiefkar3ugj6lbgdkqqtxyx6fn7zg7bfz5hjgoxffxzdpb3xins7ti)

Russia has bombed a school basically every single day this week, so for those people who say "if this was happening in Ukraine, it would be on the front pages every day", how many times have you seen that on the front page of even one of your national newspapers this week?
Zero.

We need music. This week's theme: tracks which drove our teachers nuts when we sang them again & again.
On a trip away, I remember a teacher asking: "Don't you lot know any other songs?"
We looked at each other & replied: "I don't like cricket... oh no. I love it..."
