WIRED

The clip features the David Bowie track "Five Years," which includes lyrics such as "Earth was really dying (dying)." On Thursday morning, Meta published an ad to its official Instagram account with the message that artificial intelligence will not "make us less connected" or "leave us behind." It was set to the 1972 David Bowie track "Five Years," which is about, among other things, the end of the world.

The snippet of "Five Years" used in the ad includes the following lyrics: I never thought I'd need so many people When reached for comment, Meta spokesperson Francis Brennan said he "would like to highlight what David Bowie himself said about'Five Years' and its meaning: having optimism for the future." Brennan sent along a 1972 quote about the song that he sourced to BowieBible.com .

Ukraine's ousted defence minister insists on being reinstated

BBC News

Ukraine's ousted defence minister insists on being reinstated Ukraine's ousted defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov has refused to accept an alternative post in Volodymyr Zelensky's government, insisting he wants his job back. He thanked the president, but said there were only three positions in the state - in addition to soldiers on the battlefield - which determine the course of the war: president, defence minister and commander-in-chief. Zelensky said he had offered Fedorov several posts, including deputy prime minister. Last week's removal of Fedorov - who is praised for transforming the armed forces - triggered mass protests. Zelensky was later forced to sack commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskyi, who conflicted with Fedorov.

ChatGPT medical advice brought man 'to brink of death', lawsuit alleges

BBC News

ChatGPT medical advice brought man'to brink of death', lawsuit alleges A man who claims medical advice from ChatGPT brought him to the brink of death has sued OpenAI, the company behind the popular chatbot, and its founder Sam Altman. A lawsuit filed by Scott Winters, a 55-year-old pastor from Florida, claimed ChatGPT told him not to seek medical help after repeatedly asking about symptoms in the build-up to a near-fatal pulmonary embolism. Winters' lawyers alleged the platform repeatedly and insistently misdiagnosed him while drawing on previous discussions about religion to assure him he would recover. OpenAI's Drew Pusateri told the BBC's US news partner CBS News that ChatGPT is not a doctor and should never be used as a substitute for medical care, diagnosis or treatment. He also said it was common for people to seek health information online, adding: AI can make that experience better by helping them find clearer answers, organise their questions and prepare for conversations with medical professionals.


Frank Gardner: Houthi attacks raise fears of wider Middle East conflict and more global economic damage

BBC News

Yemen's Houthi fighters claim to have attacked shipping in the Red Sea - a move that threatens to further escalate the already volatile situation in the Middle East. By forcing ships to turn back from the narrow Bab El Mandeb strait, they have threatened to choke off the main maritime route from Europe to Asia. It comes as US-Iran strikes continue and while a deal to develop Saudi Arabia's nuclear industry prompts fears of an arms race. So is the Middle East becoming more dangerous? So far, 2026 is sadly proving to be one of the more violent years for parts of the Middle East. For 12 consecutive nights, US Central Command (Centcom) has carried out air strikes on Iranian coastal radar, drone and missile bases.
