Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

Thank Lockdowns for the Worst Budget in History Sat Nov 22, 2025 13:00 | Will Jones
We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4dont miss the ongiong media success that is Radio Telefis Eirinn with global reach and capacity satelites TV websites and competitions magazines and vans RTE is for you!
Today RTE (much better than the BBC anyday)
listens to Mary Robinson who this morning debated the use of military force against Iraq. Mary is
Head of the Ethical Globalisation Initiative, and she says a war may not be the surest way to bring justice to the people of Iraq!!!
exclusive stuff with the RTE.
at the 3.50second stage you will hear Mary talk about mass mobilisations! did anyone see Mary at London?
In one of her first UK speeches since stepping down as UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, Mary Robinson will be talked on the theme of human rights in a lecture at LSE on Wednesday 23 October 2002.
"From Rhetoric to Reality: making human rights work"
Wednesday 23 October, 2pm
Peacock Theatre, Portugal Street
Mary doesnt like Rhetoric! shes just like Chavez really really honestly and truly.
Mary last weekend whilst all you "rhetoric people were assembling" was doing this...
On January 14, 2003, the Steering Committee of the Ethical Globalisation Initiative (EGI) will be convening its second meeting at the Yale Center for the Study of Globalisation. On January 15, the new Director of the Center, Ernesto Zedillo, will be organizing a brainstorming session for the initiative. Thomas Hammarberg and Harold Koh will be moderating the discussions on the key challenges, possible strategies and thematic issues for the EGI.
brainstorming!
less rhetoric more BRAINSTORMING!
good on you Mary. dont you have our best interests at heart?
coz she spoke to LSE.
Excellent programme, fly-on-the-wall coverage of a coup in action. Lies, propaganda, and Generals in stoopid uniforms. This must be just how it has happened so many times in Latin America, only this time the people managed to regain democracy from the plotters.
Funny how the main instigators of the coup had just been in Washington as guests of the US Administration.
And how the main culprit is now residing in Miami.
And the quote from George Tenet, head of the CIA about the Chavez government not being amenable to US business interests.
And how the main culprit is now residing in Miami.
And that they have a lot of oil in Venezuela.
Viva Chavez!! Viva Video Journalismo!
What an excellent documentary.
Favourite bit is when the opposition to chavez have a meeting looking all radical, and then issue a warning to their members to keep an eye on their domestic servants! Classic!
Also when the coup leaders are walking around the palace all glorious like, the look on guards faces is just priceless, you can tell they're not gonna take it much longer.
I also loved the coup leader announcing that normality had returned played over pictures of the police laying into the populace.
Another classic was the "unbiased" reporter letting slip that the whole coup announcement had been filmed in his house!
Excellent film by Kim Bartley and Donnacha O'Brien, and congratulations to RTE for showing it.
For those of you who missed it, there's a (not-quite-finished) site at www.chavezthefilm.com.
Well done!
