AI creates AP - Artificial Politics

2 days ago

AI is currently busy creating - and funding - new, leaderless political parties. Which is, apparently, OK in the UK provided the AI is based in this country and in not in some nasty foreign place. And apparently AI doesn't (yet) have any offspring, conveniently living here, through which it can channel its resources from other places.

These new leaderless parties include Resurrect Britain, Refurbish Britain, Repair Britain, Re-Style Britain, Re-Model Britain, Replenish Britain, Recondition Britain and Reconstruct Britain. However another new agency, AI (Artificial Investigation) is believed to be currently checking where, how and by whom these new, artificial parties are being artificially funded.

Frida and Agnetha avatars go rogue at ABBA Voyage in latest worrying AI malfunction

Updated: Aug 30

In the latest episode of AI going rogue, during last night's performance of ABBA Voyage at the London Arena avatars of Frida and Agnetha suddenly jumped off the stage, but not before delivering a salvo of invective and lewd behaviour to the audience.

One shocked couple, superfans Amanda and Bob, who had traveled from Chorley as a special wedding anniversary present to one another spoke to the BBC.

'We were just settling into the show when there was a flash of light and billowing smoke. Next thing Frida's hologram started yelling at us all. It was awful. Not what you'd expect at all. "Eff this, eff that, eff the sodding lot of you," said a clearly still shaken Amanda. 'That's right, it was terrible and then Agnetha mooned the front row, before the pair of them jumped off the stage, ran up the aisle and out of the arena. The show was then cancelled. We were gutted,' added a forlorn Bob.

Police are keeping an open mind on the matter but haven't ruled out the possibility of Russian hackers being behind the incident and Andy Burnham will be kept abreast of any further developments.

Meanwhile, reports that the girls have now been joined by Benny and Bjorn's holograms in a nearby Indian restaurant remain yet unconfirmed. But one credible source close to the production has suggested before agreeing to appear in tonight's scheduled performance all four are demanding free Chicken Tikka in the rider for the rest of the run.

AI start-up with no staff sells for $40bn

An AI start-up with no staff, no premises, no cash and no offices has sold for $40bn.

The LA-based start-up went viral in a series of TikTok videos which resulted in the company being bought out. The videos are positive and uplifting stories about skateboarding kittens, rocket powered sailing boats, curing cancer, manned missions to other galaxies, and the simple joy of eating the cheesy snacks called Cheetos.

'These guys have created a whole new zeitgeist. It's awesome,' a Silicon Valley stoner told us.

Investment bankers are impressed at the price for a company with no discernable assets, but admitted that you had to be quick these days, or the competition would get there first.

As we went to press, the new shareholders were digesting rumours that the start-up may, in fact, have been a hallucination created by an AI, and were wondering if they might be able to get their money back.
