Britain’s most notorious prisoner up for parole

Published

on

Britain’s most notorious prisoner Charles Bronson is pleading for freedom in a chilling new video obtained by Sky News, as the criminal’s parole trial approaches

Bronson has spent almost 50 years in jail, and says he has made ‘exceptional progress’ as his solicitor urges the judge to show his client mercy and grant him a pardon.

Bronson was initially sent to prison for seven years for armed robbery back in 1974, and has been behind bars ever since, except for two brief periods.

In 1999, the felon took a teacher hostage in Hull Prison and pulled him around with a skipping rope around his neck for two days, earning him a lie sentence.

In June 2020, a High Court ruled in Bronson’s favour, ordering his upcoming parole hearing to be held in public in the interest of a fair trial.

At 70 years old, Bronson says he’s never murdered anyone and questions why he’s still in jail.

As employees recover from the height of the pandemic, the Great Resignation has come to light

Karin Reed, the author of ‘Suddenly Hybrid said the great resignation was a period of employees taking control of their future.

“A lot of people realised in their current environment they were not happy with what they were doing with their job. They chose to vote with their feet and go elsewhere,

In other parts of the world, a spike in resignations was not reported.

However, a higher degree of workers began reporting post-Covid burnout, as they made a return to the office.

“There’s been a blurring of the lines. You have work that’s not confined by a physical space.

“Instead of closing the computer and walk away, our computer is in the next room.”

AI creates a song imitating Drake and The Weeknd

Published

on

A big surprise for music fans when they heard a new song featuring Drake and The Weeknd. But there’s a catch!

The viral song was created by artificial intelligence.

 
A new song that sounds like Drake and The Weeknd has gone viral, but it was created by artificial intelligence.

Now, there’s a crusade against AI music.

The song,“Heart on My Sleeve”was created by artificial intelligence and quickly racked up millions of views on TikTok, Spotify, and YouTube.

Record label, Universal Music Group (UMG) is not happy about the song that used AI-generated vocals to simulate pop music artists Drake Graham and The Weeknd.

UMG flexed their muscle and forced the song featuring some of its biggest artists to be removed from Spotify and TikTok.

According to reports, UMG is taking it a step further and sent letters to Spotify, Apple Music, and other music streamers requesting they block AI tools from training their models on the melodies and lyrics of UMG artists.
