As @alicettimes.bsky.social says in this excellent column, we urgently need to reform the school curriculum to match the pervasiveness of AI. The way we communicate, connect and share ideas is going to become essential to education

Surely the wrong question from a news organisation owned and run by an individual who has influenced policymaking for decades. HOW do big donors influence policies is what we need to better understand

I don’t understand why this still happens. @oilsheppard.bsky.social Elizabeth Bratton and @rachel-rees.bsky.social explain to readers the people in this story are Jewish - for no reason whatsoever. What relevance does anyone’s religion have? Are there any Catholic, Protestant, Muslim financiers?

When you glance at the hate, bile and anger on social media sites like this one, you do wonder if social media addiction is a behavioural danger to over-18s as well. When will that court case come?

This new data, published in the BMJ, is astonishing. A quarter of all American football players will have a degenerative brain disease - preventable disease - mostly likely caused by their jobs. In other news, the NFL earned $23bn in 2024

Obviously embarrassing for Harvard Professor Ricardo Hausmann but even more for the FT and its editorial process. Not a single person saw anything wrong with a totally nonsensical article. ‘It has come to our attention…’ is not an excuse

‘A new era’
The Chief Political Commentator of The Times - a day after the most absurd and inconsequential by-election and the relaunch of an investigation into potential corruption within Reform - hails the beginnings of ‘a new era’. The actual Chief Political Commentator

Love this from Emily Keegin @nytimes.com on the objects that most define America. Plastic lawn flamingos, personal injury lawyer advertisements, blinged-up crocs…but no Glock 19

Sometimes the ghostwriter’s story is as interesting as their subject’s. Remember JR Moehringer and Harry? I would love to hear more from Eve Claxton, the expert that Simon & Schuster employed to tell Jason Arday’s story

35 years after being released as a hostage, John McCarthy on why torture can never be justified - and yet 1 in 5 think it can be. As John says ‘the memory is impossible to erase’

In an extremely self-congratulatory essay about education - that chooses to ignore the role of technology and artificial intelligence in our lives - Michael Gove insists that exams and an outdated curriculum enable working-class kids to over-achieve. As it did him 50 years ago

Most people go to the theatre once a year. I suppose if you do so more than 200 times - FOR FREE - you have a different perspective to the rest of society

This is the key point about the Prince Harry v Paul Dacre story. It’s about freedom in an age when wealthy and powerful people seek to restrict it while inventing bogus narratives

Hadn’t realised media luvvie & establishment stooge Jon Harvey, aka Count Binface - he shamelessly brags of being an Oxford graduate on his poorly-followed LinkedIn page - got so many votes in London’s Mayoral election. Clacton will not be such a pushover. Good luck Nigel

According to @TheAtlantic JD Vance wrote this to coincide with the 240th birthday of America. In just 10 years, he has gone from warning about heroin to peddling it

Donald Trump’s genius - and I’m sorry but it is - is that he understands most Americans don’t actually know what communism is. But they know what anti-communism is. There’s a lot of votes in fear

‘Comments have not been enabled for this article’
An article criticising a leading politician for, er, not commenting. It’s an idiotic policy but at least they’re debating it, Roula Khalaf. The FT on the other hand bans all debate on stories about Jews, antisemitism and Israel

I think Rohan Silva is right but would it not have been appropriate for The Times to make clear that he is a leading figure at one of these AI companies, Faculty? Otherwise it’s highly deceptive

‘She is a confidence trickster. Her chosen field is the world of venture capital and entrepreneurship. And she’s figured out a formula, her playbook, and it works for her.’ Brilliant investigation into Julie Meyer, once of First Tuesday www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Love the idea that Americans are waking up to this image of a person they’ve never heard of, the potential new Prime Minister flanked by his two defeated political rivals

The New York Times could be talking about its own country: ‘Flagrantly racist ideas and claims that would have been utterly beyond the pale a decade ago now circulate among newspapers and politicians as they struggle to keep up with the rage bait of far-right influencers’

Not sure this is a good look.
The first crucial decision in the most important job of your life…and it’s timed for when you’re on holiday, which means you can’t be questioned or interviewed about it

The best thing you will read today. @nytimes.com asked Bob Dylan for his reflections about turning 80. What does ageing mean? ‘You’re not rushing to become anything and you’re not haunted by things that you did.’

Let’s call them what they are, not what they want us to call them:
Publishers.
They publish falsehoods, hatred and illegal content. Platforms have no responsibility, publishers do
