from #Railnatter · host Gareth Dennis

A year after being created, GBRX has done one thing: write a rail industry AI action plan. And it is absolutely shambolic.It is also insightful about the direction Britain's railways are being taken in, and who is taking them there. Featuring: Amazon, Google, NVIDIA, OpenAI and... Palantir. It's grim, but it's important.Read Cory Doctorow's essay: https://pluralistic.net/2026/08/01/dare-snot/#i-will-fucking-piledrive-you-if-you-mention-ai-againSupport #Railnatter at https://patreon.com/garethdennis.
