We're being told AI could end humanity, which is a lot for a Monday. But don’t worry, Sydney Sweeney is here to tell us how much she loves sports!

There’s a skit going viral about Harry and Meghan that has people divided on whether it’s a little bit funny or a little bit mean. 

An AI researcher quit his job last week and told us that the people building this stuff genuinely believe it could kill us all within the decade. Amelia explains what the whistleblowers are calling for and why "just regulate it" might not be the easy fix everyone assumes.

Plus Holly's making the case for 'hopepunk' - why choosing hope right now might be the most rebellious thing you can do. Borrowing from Caitlin Moran and Nick Cave, we explore how you can actually change anything in a world this broken, and why giving up isn't an option.

Also, Sydney Sweeney's new ad for a sports betting app has her straddling a basketball hoop naked, and it has united female athletes around the world. They’re furious.  We unpack why women in sport feel it’s pushed us backwards and whether the ad is doing exactly what it was designed to do.
