Trump announces deal for Russian diesel as Zelensky criticises'gift to Putin' US President Donald Trump says he has reached an agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin allowing Moscow to immediately release diesel into the global market. He said Putin had agreed to release 300,000 tonnes of diesel immediately, followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and another million after that. Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Trump wrote on Truth social. An envoy to Putin welcomed the deal, but Ukraine's president said any easing of sanctions on Russia played into Moscow's hands and would prolong a war that must be ended. Diesel prices in the US have doubled since the war with Iran began in February, putting pressure on Republicans ahead of the midterm elections over the rising cost of living.

Britain is in talks with EU partners to release additional strategic fuel reserves, including diesel, if needed, the BBC understands. The talks come after President Donald Trump threatened to ban diesel exports from the US in a bid to reduce record prices at the pumps for Americans. Diesel prices in the UK also hit record highs this week and are hovering just under 200p per litre, according to motoring organisation the RAC. The US is a vital supplier of diesel to the world, exporting between 1.2 and 1.5 million barrels per day, with experts warning a ban on shipments abroad could put further pressure on prices in other countries. We're thinking about it very seriously, Trump said of an export ban at the weekend.

In recent years, conversational large language models (LLMs) have shown tremendous success in tasks such as casual conversation, question answering, and personalized dialogue, making significant advancements in domains like virtual assistance, social interaction, and online customer engagement. However, they often generate responses that are not aligned with human values (e.g., ethical standards, safety, or social norms), leading to potentially unsafe or inappropriate outputs. While several techniques have been proposed to address this problem, they come with a cost, requiring computationally expensive training or dramatically increasing the inference time. In this paper, we present DIESEL, a lightweight inference guidance technique that can be seamlessly integrated into any autoregressive LLM to semantically filter undesired concepts from the response. DIESEL can function either as a standalone safeguard or as an additional layer of defense, enhancing response safety by reranking the LLM's proposed tokens based on their similarity to predefined negative concepts in the latent space. This approach provides an efficient and effective solution for maintaining alignment with human values. Our evaluation demonstrates DIESEL's effectiveness on state-of-the-art conversational models (e.g., Llama 3), even in challenging jailbreaking scenarios that test the limits of response safety. We further show that DIESEL can be generalized to use cases other than safety, providing a versatile solution for general-purpose response filtering with minimal computational overhead.

Designed by ex-Atari luminary David Crane (Pitfall, Decathlon), Activision's wonderful tie-in captured the humour and spirit of the classic comedy. Players set up their own ghostbusting franchises, buying equipment before setting out to capture spooks. With its use of digitised speech and a jaunty reproduction of the film's soundtrack, it showed that games really could provide an authentic movie experience. Developed by the UK-based movie tie-in specialist Probe Entertainment, Die Hard Trilogy is three games in one: a third-person action adventure, a light-gun shooter and an arcade driving challenge, each based around consecutive instalments of the film series. Though the visuals were rough, the game perfectly captured the locations, themes and black humour of the movies, providing a real bargain for early PlayStation and Saturn owners.

Zero emissions and, soon, zero crew: the world's first fully electric autonomous cargo vessel was unveiled in Norway, a small but promising step toward reducing the maritime industry's climate footprint. By shipping up to 120 containers of fertilizer from a plant in the southeastern town of Porsgrunn to the Brevik port a dozen kilometres (about eight miles) away, the much-delayed Yara Birkeland, shown off to the media on Friday, will eliminate the need for around 40,000 truck journeys a year that are now fuelled by polluting diesel. "Of course, there have been difficulties and setbacks," said Svein Tore Holsether, chief executive of Norwegian fertiliser giant Yara. "But then it feels even more rewarding to stand here today in front this ship and see that we were able to do it," he said, with the sleek blue-and-white vessel moored behind him in an Oslo dock, where it had been sailed for the event. The 80-metre, 3,200-deadweight tonne ship will soon begin two years of working trials during which it will be fine-tuned to learn to manoeuvre on its own.

The countdown to the biggest tech show on earth is on. Held annually in Las Vegas, the 53rd CES is the place to be if you are interested in next-generation innovations. They say "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"- but not in this case. CES, which stands for the Consumer Electronics Show, first took place in 1967. In the 50 years since, thousands of products have been announced, including many that have transformed the lives of people around the world.

Driverless trucks could soon help ferry felled logs from remote locations. Swedish tech start-up Einride has revealed the T-log, an autonomous, all-electric logging truck designed to replace the polluting diesel trucks currently used. Unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, it has no driver's cab but can be remote-controlled by a human operator, from hundreds of miles away. Fleet of T-logs will be coordinated by an intelligent routing system, optimizing delivery time, battery life and energy consumption, making the transport as efficient as possible, the firm behind it says. Robert Falck, the CEO of Einride, the firm behind the truck, said: 'The driver's cab is what makes trucks expensive to produce, and having a driver in the cabin is what makes them expensive to operate.

If a tree falls in a forest and there's nobody around, does the truck that comes in to pick it up make a noise? Not much of one, if it's the latest offering from Swedish startup Einride, an all-electric autonomous semi looking to carve out a niche in an increasingly crowded (but not yet entirely real) market. The new truck, unveiled today at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK, is the T-log. Like on the T-pod, the truck Einride unveiled last year, there's no cab or engine, just a skinny, sculpted, white slab up front. At the back are upright supports to hold the logs in place.

The Government is to spend hundreds of millions of pounds encouraging people to make electric cars that drive themselves. It will spend huge amounts of money to try and incentivise electric vehicles. Then eventually those cars will start driving themselves around the country – with Chancellor Philip Hammond backing a plan to have them making their own way by 2021. Jeremy Corbyn used the news about driverless vehicles to joke about having tested "backseat driving" in the Government, which has been bitterly divided before the Budget. Mr Hammond said the technology was being introduced because the Government saw it as the future.
