Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

Almost every alternative shown here exploits animals.
Toothbrush "brush" made from the hair of a pig, seriously??
Fibres made from silk worms to clean between your teeth and cling wrap sheets that use bee vommit to help keep them stuck down.
Have we literally gone INSANE? I thought the whole idea of ditching plastic was to EVOLVE rather than taking 10 steps back?
Man kind is doomed! For those that are open minded enough checkout Cowspiracy on Netflix

It's always advised to prevent aspiration to not use a straw. I never give my patients straws, because I want them to heal instead of getting sicker.

Using animals to replace plastics is not a positive move forward. Its actually not a move forward at all.

They have bamboo toothbrushes with biodegradable plant based bristles. So no boar hair in your mouth. Also they have bamboo, metal or glass straws if you still want straws. If you want help reducing plastic use look up The Low Impact Movement!

@Frenchblue8
January 6, 2024 at 2:45 am
A couple of these swaps aren't vegan ( beeswax, boars hair~ that one is too yucky anyway😱) so some further tweaking is ne esary. But it does get you thinking outside the proverbial plastic box.
Glass straws can be purchased online.
But bamboo is a great step in the right direction . They're even making surfboards from it!🏄
