Just realised: most of the 'Sadiq Khan is going to ban Uber' UK thinktanks (he wasn't) are now 'Deliveroo drivers are the enemy of the West' thinktanks (they aren't).
Reminds me of the hot takes when Uber was going to be banned in London.

I've decided to become a thinktank.
This is how thinktanks work. They decide to become a thinktank, declare themselves thinktanks and then because they're thinktanks, they can be quoted as newsworthy.
I can now spout any bollocks I like, and can be used in any news piece that it suits.

The way that money into thinktanks influences public debate is not mostly by corruption. The people who work at the thinktanks generally hold their opinions in good faith, and are not bought off.
But money into thinktanks biases public debate via SELECTION.

Low-cost loans for solar panels could save households hundreds on bills – thinktanks
New Economics Foundation and Finance Innovation Lab suggest loan scheme backed by Bank of England could benefit up to 8m homes
Millions of UK households could save hundreds of pounds a year on their energy bills if the government were to approve low-cost loans for solar panel installation, research has found.
Solar panels with batteries are one of the cheapest ways to generate electricity and reduce energy bills, but with an upfront cost of about £6,000 they are still beyond the reach of most cash-strapped UK households while other countries forge ahead with installation. Continue reading...

He's right of course.
The pages of the Telegraph, the Spectator, GBNews, right-wing "thinktanks" are increasingly dominated by bigots and racists like Murray whose reasoning and objectives are no different from the BNP of the 1990s.

This nonsense has become a fucking cult. Collective AI psychosis intertwined with shameless grift. Two of the authors operate out of AI thinktanks opaquely funded by philanthropic donations (i.e. tech-bros), they used chatbots to help write it, & the paper hasn‘t been peer reviewed. Garbage.
Can the new cutting-edge AI models feel pain? They at least behave as if they do, according to a recent study.
