A father-of-two has become the first man jailed following an anti-migrant protest in Portsmouth after admitting throwing a plastic bottle and swearing at police. Del Somerville, 42, previously pleaded guilty to violent disorder at the city's crown court following the overnight protest near Eastney Marina on 6 September. Hundreds of protesters gathered after a boat carrying about 120 migrants was brought ashore near Eastney Beach. He pleaded not guilty to a separate charge of assaulting a police officer, relating to an incident on 11 September, and will face trial at Portsmouth Magistrates Court at a later date. The court heard Sommerville, from Portsmouth, was among a large group of demonstrators protesting at the arrival of the migrants.

Climate protesters say tech companies, not AI, are the real'danger to humankind' - and the planet O n Monday evening, protesters gathered outside the unmarked Manhattan offices of OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT, holding signs calling to "Eat the rich, save the planet". Over the next two days, groups also picketed outside the offices of fellow tech giants Google and Amazon; other protesters, including clergy, were arrested while disrupting a closed-door AI health summit in the city. Tonight, protesters will target a Brooklyn gas power plant that was set to close - until it was purchased to power AI datacenters. The protests come on the heels of an Anthropic employee quitting his job with a warning that intensified an already-growing AI panic: "The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade." Though it was far from the first time an AI expert had issued a doomsday message about the threat the tech poses, this time it dominated public attention, arriving as trust in big tech has hit an all-time low and communities across the country are trying to stop the building of datacenters.

'RAF jet crash escape' and'Tories to cut benefits' Image caption, The moment two RAF pilots ejected from a jet is splashed across the front page of the Daily Mirror, which says it is a miracle nobody was killed in the incident. The two pilots were taking part in a training exercise in Anglesey when they were forced to parachute from the plane, which the paper reports then plummeted nose-first into a field and caused a huge fireball. Image caption, Several of the papers lead on the Conservative party's promise to prevent long-term jobless benefit claimants from spending their welfare payments on alcohol, cigarettes and gambling. The Times declares Tories to cut benefits for long-term unemployed, and includes quotes from party leader Kemi Badenoch, who says she plans to stop joblessness being a lifestyle choice for those who can't be bothered. Image caption, The Daily Mail says Badenoch's ruthless crackdown would see people who have been unemployed for more than six months have their Universal Credit cut by 30%.

Steve Cargil's family has farmed the flat, dry land around Uvalde, a small city in southwest Texas, since 1953. Cargil, 67, had always assumed that one of his three children would eventually take it over, the way he had from his father. But that assumption took a hit one night in 2018 after a violent hailstorm. Cargil and his son, Ryan, had spent months nursing crops of cabbage and onions to harvest. Then a storm rolled through and destroyed them overnight.

The fitness company behind high-end exercise classes Barrecore, Boom Cycle, and Kobox has suddenly shut all its studios. Common Bond emailed customers announcing its locations, all of which are currently in London, were closed until further notice. The firm describes itself as a wellness collective and charges £2,400 for 12 months of unlimited classes. It also runs Reformcore and Triyoga brands and said in August last year it had ten sites. Its website is no longer publicly accessible.

The French book scene is in uproar after a Canadian-Haitian author billed as a sensation was accused of using artificial intelligence (AI) to write his first novel. Thélyson Orélien, 38, has just been awarded the Prix du Roman Fnac - the first of the literary season's prizes - for C'était ça ou mourir (It was either that or die). He is also a finalist for the most prestigious annual French language awards, the Goncourt and the Renaudot, set to be issued soon. But on Tuesday a little-known group called Balance ton Claude (Denounce your Claude, in reference to Anthropic's AI assistant) claimed the book was almost totally written by AI - a charge the author denied. We tested several passages, from different bits of the manuscript, to come up with the identical result: 100 percent AI, the group said on X.

Insurer Admiral will cut 500 jobs in the UK to save £100m, it has announced. The proposals are related to Admiral's UK insurance business only, and will affect about 5% of its workforce. We recognise this will be a difficult time for affected colleagues, said Alistair Hargreaves, Admiral Insurance UK's chief executive . While the Cardiff-based company uses artificial intelligence (AI) in its operations, adoption of AI is not believed to be responsible for these changes. Admiral said the job cuts would make the firm faster and more efficient.
