Where do you go from here if you are the management of the Brisbane Broncos? I would stick with Madge and have a clear out. Anyone with too many errors or unprepared to knuckle down for the team needs to find a new home.

The big thing with AI is responsibility. If AI has stolen intellectual property, who gets sued? If AI makes a decision that causes someone financial damage, who gets sued/arrested? If AI causes physical harm, who gets sued/arrested? Using AI as an accountability sink is problematic.

Interesting report from Brad Setser on what EU should/ shouldn't do re Trump "EU policymakers floated dropping auto tariff entirely on all countries in response to Trump’s criticism. That would be naïve. Opening EU market to China unilaterally wouldn’t solve European exporters’ problems in China"

Greece, Spain are the most promising locations to let Europes energy intensive industries migrate. Abundant energy, lower labour costs. A lot of their regions are already showing strong growth in intra-EU goods exports. Germany should let some of its steel and chemical industry go there.

The cakeism of the Right is that you can achieve growth and economic plenty by implementing conservative policies that are exclusionary to good chunks of the population. Simultaneously, shrinking and growing the economic pie.

Russia: All trucks are being stopped for searches in Irkutsk region following yesterday's attack on Russian strategic bombers. The row of trucks on this road extends to several kilometers. In Russia, 65-70% of all logistics transport by volume is done with semi trucks.

It's dangerous to lump all of Europe's Far Right parties together and generalise trends. Each country has its own history, the is no right to govern for centrist parties and sometimes individual Far Right parties oppose other Far Right parties.

There’s your empty shelf. US goods imports drop 19.8% in April — largest on record

Yesterday evening was my first Sailfish swimnight at the Langen Waldsee. Super well organised and great event. Loved seeing the sun going down over the lake as the swim finished!
