Indonesia sues six companies over environmental harm in flood zones
Indonesia's government has filed multiple lawsuits seeking more than $200m in damages against six firms, after deadly floods wreaked havoc across Sumatra, killing more than 1,000 people last year, although environmentalists criticised the moves as inadequate. Environmentalists, experts and the government pointed the finger at deforestation for its role in last year's disaster that washed torrents of mud and wooden logs into villages across the northwestern part of the island. The sum represents both fines for damage and the proposed monetary value of recovery efforts. The suits were filed to courts on Thursday in Jakarta and North Sumatra's Medan, the ministry added. "We firmly uphold the principle of polluter pays," Environment Minister Hanif Faisol Nurofiq said in a statement.

The Guardian was able to create short videos of people stripping to bikinis from photographs of fully clothed, real women. It was also possible to post this adult content on to X's public platform without any sign of it being moderated, meaning the clip could be viewed within seconds by anyone with an account.

OpenAI and Microsoft lose last chance to avoid trial with Elon Musk
OpenAI and Microsoft failed to escape a trial over Elon Musk's claims that Sam Altman's startup betrayed its founding mission as a public charity when it took billions in funding from the software giant and made plans to operate as a for-profit business. A federal judge in Oakland, California, on Thursday rejected requests by OpenAI and Microsoft to dismiss claims by Musk and ordered the case to proceed to a jury trial set for late April. Musk helped Altman and others launch OpenAI in 2015 and went on to found his own artificial intelligence company in 2023. Musk's lawsuit continues to be baseless and a part of his ongoing pattern of harassment, and we look forward to demonstrating this at trial," OpenAI said in a statement. "We remain focused on empowering the OpenAI Foundation, which is already one of the best resourced nonprofits ever."
