Smith’s remarks took place on BBC’s Panorama during an episode that focused on the dangers of artificial intelligence and the technology race between China and the United States. Although the warning comes a month after the European Union started to draft laws to protect the public, there are fewer efforts in the U.S., where A.I. is mostly pushed as a national security measure. "I'm constantly reminded of George Orwell's lessons in his book 1984," Smith said. "The fundamental story was about a government that could see everything that everyone did and hear everything that everyone said all the time. Well, that didn't come to pass in 1984, but if we're not careful, that could come to pass in 2024."

ENTERTAINMENT [How the Spice Girls are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their hit, "Wannabe]( It’s been 25 years since the Spice Girls released their hit song, "Wannabe" — which climbed to number one back in 1996, and stayed at the top of the charts longer than any girl group song. More than 1.3 million people bought the CD or downloaded the tune at the time. Now, to celebrate the band’s epic anniversary, the Spice Girls will release a brand new song — something they have not done in almost 15 years. The ballad, called "Feed Your Love", was never released, as it was considered a bit “racy” at the time. A few years ago, a segment of the song was leaked, but this is the first time that the track will be shared in its entirety.

Believers in the conspiracy theory — which casts former President Donald Trump as a savior figure and elite Democrats as a cult of Satanist pedophiles and cannibals — played a prominent role in the deadly Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol. In a June 4 bulletin distributed to members of Congress and seen by Reuters, the FBI said its experts believe that some believers in predictions of political upheavals promoted on QAnon websites and bulletin boards believe they can "no longer 'trust the plan.'"
