Microsoft president Brad Smith warned we need human control for artificial intelligence. He explained it could cause a human extinction risk similar to the effects of nuclear war. That is why we must have people ready to shut down AI tools immediately to prevent such a catastrophe. Alternatively, we should slow down development so humans can catch up. The tech leader also noted artificial intelligence has 'the potential to become both a tool and a weapon.' Consequently, we should know how to handle this technology to maximize benefits and minimize risks.

Thank you, Mr Vice President And thank you, High Commissioner for your report and sobering update. We share your concern at the harrowing situation in Myanmar and condemn the military's increasingly brutal tactics, including the targeting of civilians through airstrikes and the burning of homes. The evidence of the scale of the military's actions continues to mount, including the latest findings from the Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar. We continue to support the work of the Mechanism, which remains crucial to ensure accountability for these crimes.

Xavier Tillman scored 22 points and pulled down 18 rebounds to lead the Grizzlies, who led by as many as 20 points in a bruising battle that saw Lakers center Anthony Davis suffer a small cut on his right eyelid and LeBron James drawn into a verbal back and forth with Dillon Brooks. With All-Star point guard Morant ruled out with a bruised right hand, the Grizzlies clamped down defensively, Tillman saying their message to Morant was 'we've got his back, and we're going to hold it down for him.
