As readers of this blog have doubtless noticed, the latest hot tech – and investment – area involves “agentic AI”, where AI systems are allowed to operative autonomously on allocated tasks. There’s no doubt there are some exciting possibilities here, as well as some troubling issues concerning lack of control.

European Commission has fined Apple 500M euros and Meta 200M euros for breaching the bloc’s Digital Markets Act.

The commission also issued cease-and-desist orders that could have a bigger impact than the fines. Both companies will have 60 days to comply with the orders or risk additional penalties of up to 5% of their daily revenue

@LordWoolamaloo @JackTheCat @Fragarach
Leader of the House Lucy Powell earlier today in the Commons:

“Liz Truss’s kamikaze budget directly and immediately led to the gilt market crashing … she might want us to cease and desist, but we won’t cease and desist from telling the truth, that they crashed the economy.”

Also a legal opinion:

#Trump is really angry that #ProPublica is publishing an investigative report exposing his apparent #bribery of potential #witnesses who could be called to testify against him in his many #criminal cases. He's threatening to sue them if they don't "#CeaseAndDesist" publishing the article, blathering on about #defamation, but the last thing he wants is to have the details of his #witnessTampering authenticated and memorialized in court. Another empty threat.
