Is an A.I to blame for ignoring in a test run advice that its planned course of action will harm people? Or does the blame really belong to the incompetent humans who wrote its programs in a way that allowed this to happen?

Act of political vandalism
If you want to know why imposing another tier of spend & waste mayors is a terrible idea, alll you have to do is look at the 2 most notorious of them. In London, Sadgeek K’han’t. In Manchester, Jonah Burnbum.
Neither has actually covered himself in glory.
Further fallout
The Chancellor’s gambling stealth tax will shut down bingo halls, cancel jobs and leave benefits customers with nowhere to spend their loot.
● Not a word from the prime mayor about this, despite his claim that he wants to see jobs protected. Or is he talking about just the public sector?
These things take time
Put’n the Poisoner reckons he’s ready for a major war with Europe. But has anyone told him that he’s not going to get one until everyone here has stocked up with 3 days’ worth of baked beans and bottled water? Both of which have sold out in the supermarkets, which means the job will drag on and on.
Ignore the facts
Hedgehogs are becoming extinct in Britain and the cause is the badger. But self-appointed experts are blaming all sorts of other things, such as road traffic and pesticides.
But the fact remains, hedgehogs thrive only where badgers, now a protected species, are rare. And when badgers are culled, as during the bovine tuberculosis outbreak, hedgehog numbers grow.
Unlawfare
Criminals let out of gaol early committed 46,500 recorded crimes in the first 3 months of this Labour scam. No guess is on offer for the number of crimes they got away with.
The way forward
If the unofficial guide to the UK’s tax code, Tolley’s Tax Guide, is now 728 pages long, maybe the time has come to hand the ineffective HMRC over to an A.I system, which should be able to cut through the maze in microseconds.
