The Fed has two jobs. Keep inflation under control and support the fullest possible level of employment in the US economy. The arrival of AI could change both those jobs according to Donald Trump's pick for the next chair of the Fed Kevin Warsh. Mr Warsh told senators that productivity gains from AI could be "so consequential" that it would allow growth to be higher without stoking inflation while at the same time it would present changes to the job market. Mr Warsh said that the Fed needed to "change its models" #warsh

Are you going to be the President's sock puppet? That was the question asked by Republican Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana - echoing others on a Senate Committee grilling Donald Trump's pick to be the chair of the world's most important financial institution the Federal Reserve. Questions on Mr Warsh's independence have dominated the first hour of the hearing with both Democrats and Republicans quoting remark's by the President that he "wouldn't appoint anyone who wasn't going to lower interest rates". Mr Warsh denied that he had "made a deal" with Donald Trump to lower rates if approved. Inflation has been above the Fed's target for several years but Kevin Warsh told the committee he had low confidence in traditional measures of inflation - signalling that inflation being above target would not be a barrier to lowering rates.

Hail Mary Project. What a weird film. One of the most bizarre endings I’ve ever seen capped a strange mix of two different films - both pretty awful. And yet Ryan Gosling managed somehow to rise above it all and deliver a really likeable performance. How the team behind this film thought that was the right ending is beyond me.
