The Walmatjarri elder and blues musician Kankawa Nagarra has won the $50,000 Australian Music prize (AMP) for her debut album Wirlmarni, seeing off competition from Nick Cave, the Dirty Three and Amyl and the Sniffers.

AI and the 2024 Elections
2024-12-04T12:09:23Z
It’s been the biggest year for elections in human history: 2024 is a “super-cycle” year in which 3.7 billion eligible voters in 72 countries had the chance to go the polls. These are also the first AI elections, where many feared that deepfakes and artificial intelligence-generated misinformation would overwhelm the democratic processes. As 2024 draws to a close, it’s instructive to take stock of how democracy did.
In a Pew survey of Americans from earlier this fall, nearly eight times as many respondents expected AI to be used for mostly bad purposes...

The South Korean coup is a perfect coda to the Biden presidency | Alex Bronzini-Vender
Wed, 04 Dec 2024 16:22:33 GMT
Joe Biden’s Indo-Pacific policy of pursuing detente against China at all costs meant embracing Yoon, whose anti-democratic attitude has always been clear
Jean Baudrillard’s 1986 travel diary of his time in Reagan’s America – “the only remaining primitive society on earth”, in his words – describes a paradox about the nature of late-century American hegemony. “American power does not seem inspired by any spirit or genius of its own,” wrote Baudrillard, “but it is, in a sense, uncontested and incontestable.” American “genius” appeared to suffer “from the weakening of all the forces that previously opposed it” – the incoherence of American strategic thinking, to Baudrillard, was thus a measure of its success.
Today, there are American adversaries everywhere – not least in what is now called the Indo-Pacific. But no such “spirit or genius” seemed to underpin the Biden administration’s response to the Tuesday coup in South Korea, much less South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol’s attempted overthrow of democratic rule. The Biden administration’s response has been, to say the least, limp. At the time of writing, the state department has said little beyond an assurance that its alliance with South Korea is “ironclad” and that the United States will “stand by Korea in its time of uncertainty”.

Algorithms Are Coming for Democracy—but It’s Not All Bad
2024-12-03T12:00:47Z
In 2025, AI is poised to change every aspect of democratic politics—but it won’t necessarily be for the worse.
India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi, has used AI to translate his speeches for his multilingual electorate in real time, demonstrating how AI can help diverse democracies to be more inclusive. AI avatars were used by presidential candidates in South Korea in electioneering, enabling them to provide answers to thousands of voters’ questions simultaneously. We are also starting to see AI tools aid fundraising and get-out-the-vote efforts. AI techniques are starting to augment more traditional polling methods, helping campaigns get cheaper and faster data. And congressional candidates have started using AI robocallers to engage voters on issues. In 2025, these trends will continue. AI doesn’t need to be superior to human experts to augment the labor of an overworked canvasser, or to write ad copy similar to that of a junior campaign staffer or volunteer. Politics is competitive, and any technology that can bestow an advantage, or even just garner attention, will be used...

Wed, 04 Dec 2024 13:49:05 GMT
Ding Liren and Gukesh Dommaraju played to a fifth successive draw on Wednesday in the eighth game of their $2.5m world championship showdown in Singapore, leaving the best-of-14-games match all square at 4-all after a rollercoaster affair which saw both players let winning chances slip away in the middlegame.
The 32-year-old reigning champion from China, after playing a new first move (1 c4) for the fourth time in four games with the favored white pieces, fought back from the brink of disaster by finding an incredible idea from a worse position while trailing badly on time. Helped by a Gukesh blunder, Ding played confidently and quickly to turn the tables.

If Trump’s tariffs start a trade war, it would be an economic disaster | Mark Weisbrot
Wed, 04 Dec 2024 11:00:05 GMT
The president-elect’s two main arguments for his tariff threat – to reduce migration and to combat drugs – are not credible
“To me, the most beautiful word in the dictionary is tariff, and it’s my favorite word,” said Donald Trump last month. Pundits, politicians and financial markets are trying to figure out why, since he announced a week ago that he would impose tariffs on the United States’s three biggest trading partners: 25% for Mexico and Canada, and 10% for China.
One theory is that tariffs can be a beautiful distraction. Trump, more than any previous US president, has fed on distractions for years, both to campaign and to govern. He can move seamlessly from one distraction to the next, like a magician preparing for the opportune moment to pull a coin from where it appears to have been hidden behind your ear.

Australia head into Adelaide Test against India at risk of blowing world title | Martin Pegan
Wed, 04 Dec 2024 14:00:29 GMT
The reigning champions have tumbled from first to third place in the World Test Championship standings and there remains little margin for error
Australia have only just begun the first of back-to-back home summers where an ageing side is seeking to cement its legacy in a pair of Test series against arch-rivals India and England. Yet one match into the stretch of 10 high-stakes clashes and cracks are already starting to appear that might end some international red-ball careers – and the defence of one of their two world crowns.
India quick Jaspit Bumrah had more than enough tools to prise open the fractures in Australia’s batting lineup when twice tearing through the top order at the hosts’ former fortress in Perth. The humbling defeat leaves Australia needing to overcome a 1-0 deficit to win a Test series for the first time in 27 years if they are to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It isn’t quite vital that Australia immediately bounce back in the second Test starting in Adelaide on Friday, but another loss would leave them with next to no margin for error in pursuit of not one but two prized titles.

Algorithms Are Coming for Democracy—but It’s Not All Bad
2024-12-03T12:00:47Z
In 2025, AI is poised to change every aspect of democratic politics—but it won’t necessarily be for the worse.
India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi, has used AI to translate his speeches for his multilingual electorate in real time, demonstrating how AI can help diverse democracies to be more inclusive. AI avatars were used by presidential candidates in South Korea in electioneering, enabling them to provide answers to thousands of voters’ questions simultaneously. We are also starting to see AI tools aid fundraising and get-out-the-vote efforts. AI techniques are starting to augment more traditional polling methods, helping campaigns get cheaper and faster data. And congressional candidates have started using AI robocallers to engage voters on issues. In 2025, these trends will continue. AI doesn’t need to be superior to human experts to augment the labor of an overworked canvasser, or to write ad copy similar to that of a junior campaign staffer or volunteer. Politics is competitive, and any technology that can bestow an advantage, or even just garner attention, will be used...

Economic hardship looms over Ghana as country readies for polls
Tue, 03 Dec 2024 16:20:22 GMT
Election is being contested between vice-president Mahamudu Bawumia and former president John Mahama, under whom corruption ballooned
When the Ghanaian opposition leader Nana Akufo-Addo won the presidential election on his third attempt in 2016, many saw it as a turning point.
The first person to unseat an incumbent, his historic win captured his compatriots’ frustration. Alleged corruption had ballooned under his predecessor, John Mahama: in one instance, Mahama accepted a $100,000 (£79,000) car from a foreign contractor that his spokesperson said was put into a pool of presidential vehicles; in another, judges were captured on video collecting bribes to dispense justice.
