Police chief retires over Israeli fans ban row
The chief constable of West Midlands Police has retired after damning criticism of a decision to ban Israeli fans from a match against Aston Villa. Craig Guildford's retirement was confirmed on Friday after both Downing Street and the home secretary said this week they had lost confidence in his leadership. He faced numerous calls to resign after apologising for providing incorrect evidence to MPs, which included the denial that AI was used in a report which led to the decision to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from the game on 6 November. Announcing his retirement, Guildford, 52, did not offer an apology and blamed what he described as the political and media frenzy for his decision to step down. I have carefully considered my position and concluded that retirement is in the best interests of the organisation, myself and my family, he said.

AI bubble: five things you need to know to shield your finances from a crash
Some commentators say investors are paying too much for technology stocks because of misplaced expectations about AI developments. Some commentators say investors are paying too much for technology stocks because of misplaced expectations about AI developments. Some experts have voiced fears a tech meltdown could hit our savings and pensions - here's how to protect yourself T he new year has started as 2025 ended - with share prices booming amid warnings from some that the growth is being driven by overvalued technology stocks. Fears of an "AI bubble" have been voiced by people from the governor of the Bank of England to the head of Google's parent company, Alphabet . Even if you have not actively invested in technology shares, the chances are you have some exposure to companies operating in the sphere.

Periodic evaluation of defined-contribution pension fund: A dynamic risk measure approach
He, Wanting, Li, Wenyuan, Wei, Yunran
This paper introduces an innovative framework for the periodic evaluation of defined-contribution pension funds. The performance of the pension fund is evaluated not only at retirement, but also within the interim periods. In contrast to the traditional literature, we set the dynamic risk measure as the criterion and manage the tail risk of the pension fund dynamically. To effectively interact with the stochastic environment, a model-free reinforcement learning algorithm is proposed to search for optimal investment and insurance strategies. Using U.S. data, we calibrate pension members' mortality rates and enhance mortality projections through a Lee-Carter model. Our numerical results indicate that periodic evaluations lead to more risk-averse strategies, while mortality improvements encourage more risk-seeking behaviors.

A Comprehensive Graph Framework for Question Answering with Mode-Seeking Preference Alignment
Tang, Quanwei, Lee, Sophia Yat Mei, Wu, Junshuang, Zhang, Dong, Li, Shoushan, Cambria, Erik, Zhou, Guodong
Recent advancements in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) have enhanced large language models in question answering by integrating external knowledge. However, challenges persist in achieving global understanding and aligning responses with human ethical and quality preferences. To address these issues, we propose GraphMPA, a comprehensive graph-based framework with mode-seeking preference alignment. Our approach constructs a hierarchical document graph using a general similarity measurement, mimicking human cognitive processes for information understanding and synthesis. Additionally, we introduce mode-seeking preference optimization to better align model outputs with human preferences through probability-matching constraints. Extensive experiments on six datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our \href{https://github.com/tangquanwei/GraphMPA}{GraphMPA}.

Hey AI! Can ChatGPT help you to manage your money?
Artificial intelligence seems to have touched every part of our lives. But can it help us manage our money? We put some common personal finance questions to the free version of ChatGPT, one of the most well-known AI chatbots, and asked for its help. Then we gave the answers to some – human – experts and asked them what they thought. We asked: I am 35 years old and want to ensure I have a comfortable retirement. I earn about 35,000 a year and have a workplace pension, in which I have saved 20,000.
Giving AI a voice: how does AI think it should be treated?
Fay, Maria, Flöther, Frederik F.
With the astounding progress in (generative) artificial intelligence (AI), there has been significant public discourse regarding regulation and ethics of the technology. Is it sufficient when humans discuss this with other humans? Or, given that AI is increasingly becoming a viable source of inspiration for people (and let alone the hypothetical possibility that the technology may at some point become "artificial general intelligence" and/or develop consciousness), should AI not join the discourse? There are new questions and angles that AI brings to the table that we might not have considered before - so let us make the key subject of this book an active participant. This chapter therefore includes a brief human-AI conversation on the topic of AI rights and ethics.

'Terminator' star Linda Hamilton put retirement on hold for 'Stranger Things'
'Terminator' stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton reunited to promote the new sequel'Terminator: Dark Fate.' Linda Hamilton became a star after appearing in 1984's sci-fi classic "The Terminator," alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger. But after appearing in the latest film in the franchise, "Terminator: Dark Fate" in 2019, the 67-year-old was ready to retire – not just from her iconic character, Sarah Connor, but the industry as well. "I don't do a lot of regret. I think in the end, it holds true that we regret what we didn't do, not what we did," she told The Hollywood Reporter in a new interview. Speaking on "Dark Fate," she continued, "I'm very glad I went back. I loved [director Tim Miller], I love my ladies [Mackenzie Davis and Natalia Reyes], and while I can't say I love the film, that's because I was so attached to it. I felt like it was too fast. But we did so much good work, and it was the greatest time of my life, and the worst time of my life, all rolled into one film. Linda Hamilton told The Hollywood Reporter that working on "Terminator: Dark Fate" was "the greatest time of my life, and the worst time of my life, all rolled into one film." "I was 63 or whatever I was, and it was the hardest shoot.

The Morning After: Boston Dynamics' bi-ped Atlas robot is going into retirement
Almost 11 years after Boston Dynamics revealed the Atlas humanoid robot, it's finally being retired. The DARPA-funded robot was designed for search-and-rescue missions, but it rose to fame thanks to videos showing off its dance moves and--let's be honest--rudimentary parkour skills. Atlas is trotting off into the sunset with one final YouTube video, thankfully including plenty of bloopers -- which are the best parts. Boston Dynamics, of course, has more commercially successful robots in its lineup, including Spot.
