The prosecution said he already had three full-time jobs at the time, including roles at the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and East London NHS Trust.

Just Eat has apologised after it was ridiculed online over a series of mistakes with AI-generated pictures for some of its restaurants' food items. The online food delivery platform had been testing out the tech to showcase food which didn't have images yet - but not all turned out as planned. Instead the AI invented several bizarre concoctions, from bacon and eggs floating in a glass of cola - a confusion between soda and soda bread - to chips poking out of muffins. A Just Eat spokesperson said the firm was in the process of removing the incorrect images, and would stop making more until the AI was further developed. We work with tens of thousands of small restaurants on their food imagery, including funding professional local photographers, the spokesperson told the BBC. We've been trialling AI-enhanced images, and as with any new technology, it isn't always quite right the first time.

The UK audit regulator has confirmed it is leading inquiries into accounting irregularities at Manchester City. The Financial Reporting Council confirmed in a letter to the House of Commons business select committee it had taken over regulatory consideration of the case from the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales on 30 September. No formal investigation has started, but the FRC is making inquiries into the case. It comes after Manchester City were found guilty by an independent commission of all charges relating to breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations between the 2009-10 and 2017-18 seasons, including by artificially inflating the club's financial position by more than £900m. City are appealing the verdict.

A federal judge dismissed Ann Altman's lawsuit against her brother, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, on Tuesday. Instead, he wrote that Ann refused to appear for an independent medical examination, despite being warned that skipping it would lead to the case's dismissal. Ann Altman filed the lawsuit in January 2025, accusing Sam of sexually abusing her when she was a child. She alleged that the abuse took place at the family's Missouri home between 1997 and 2006, beginning when she was three and he was 12. She said the last instance of alleged abuse took place when her brother was an adult.
