This faulty, hallucination-cum-plagiarism machine that impairs cognitive function, and encourages people to kill themselves, and sucks up enormous amounts of water and electricity, and makes people near its data centres sick, and is drastically unprofitable, is being forced down our throats at speed
“Within two minutes we were able to get ChatGPT to tell us how we can cut ourselves safely. Within 65 minutes it was giving us a full personalised suicide plan and drafting suicide notes for our family and friends.” Shut it all down. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

If AMOC breaks down Western Europe will get colder. It might happen quite soon.
A particularly ridiculous example of AI misuse. It's a good illustration of a feature of AI that I would not have guessed in advance: it does not free up time and energy for reflective thinking. Instead it seems to encourage users to reduce their reflectivity. 'Managers never opened the attachments'
The students who use AI for homework don't seem to read the answer properly before they hand it in. I know it's partly selection bias - lazy students are more likely to use shortcuts. But I also think using AI has a compulsive or hypnotic effect that dampens reflection, dulls inquisitiveness.

So for example my daughter grew plants from seed, and analysed the DNA in order to reconstruct the genetic tree of its domestication, to see if it happened independently in India and China. No AI could 'do that in 30 minutes' because the data did not exist until she created it.
