Dozens walk out as Google boss Pichai addresses Stanford graduates 2 hours ago Share Save Add as preferred on Google Ana Faguy Watch: Dozens of Stanford grads walk out on Google CEO's speech Several students walked out of their Stanford University graduation ceremony as Google CEO Sundar Pichai took the stage to deliver a keynote address. Video filmed by the BBC shows dozens of people protesting against the company's controversial work with the US government. One sign read "ICE spies with Google AI". This follows other recent campus protests against tech leaders, but those have largely focused on artificial intelligence and concerns about jobs. Pichai largely sidestepped the issue of AI in his remarks, though he appeared to make light of the expected protests. "People thought it would be really difficult for me," he said. "It is the last two letters of my last name, after all." Google CEO Sundar Pichai Pichai, a Stanford alum, did not respond to the BBC's request for comment. The exact number of students who walked out of the graduation remains unclear, though SFGate estimated it was around 200. It is also not clear if all the students who left were motivated by the same cause, as some were seen waving Palestinian flags. The protests against graduation speakers in the US this year showed the broader unease on campuses about AI: Speakers who mention AI are increasingly being met with hostility from students. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt was booed by students as he spoke about the rise of AI during his speech at the University of Arizona's graduation ceremony in May, underscoring growing anxiety over AI's impact on jobs. "I know what many of you are feeling about that. I can hear you," Schmidt told graduates as jeers rang out at the venue during remarks comparing today's AI boom to the rise of computers four decades ago. Gloria Caulfield, a real estate executive, saw a similar reception at the University of Central Florida: "The rise of artificial intelligence is the next industrial revolution," she said as the crowd booed. At the mention of AI at Middle Tennessee State University commencement, Scott Borchetta, CEO of Big Machine Records, was also met with jeers. His response to graduates: "Deal with it, like I said, it's a tool."

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Lewis Hamilton's victory in Barcelona was Ferrari's first grand prix win since Mexico 2024 By Andrew Benson F1 Correspondent Published 41 minutes ago Lewis Hamilton says he was struggling to find the words to express how much his first victory for Ferrari meant to him after winning the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix. The seven-time champion, in his second season with the team, won from Mercedes' George Russell and McLaren's Lando Norris. That made it the first all-British podium in F1 since the 1968 United States Grand Prix, won by Sir Jackie Stewart from Graham Hill and John Surtees. Hamilton had a difficult first season with Ferrari, failing to finish on the podium in any of the 24 grands prix, though he did win the sprint race in China. He said: "How do you find the right words to express an emotion that's beyond your wildest dreams?" The 41-year-old was on course to beat Russell and Kimi Antonelli anyway even before a virtual safety car period mid-race ensured he could pit and return to the race in the lead and not have to fight back past the Mercedes drivers. Hamilton said that as he embraced his Ferrari team after the race, his "heart was exploding with joy". Championship leader Antonelli retired from second place with four laps to go, promoting Norris to third place.

Both Russell and world champion Norris paid tribute to Hamilton. Norris said: "Pretty cool. It's pretty special. It's nice. And with Ferrari again, it's even cooler to kind of see that partnership come through and kind of pay dividends. "You could see how much it meant to him. At the same time, he's obviously had a lot of people talk badly about him and he's got a lot of crap online from a lot of people, so it's nice that he can stick the middle finger up to all of them." Russell, who spent three seasons as team-mate to Hamilton at Mercedes before his move to Ferrari for 2025, said: "We both sort of grew up as fans of Lewis and, you know, for myself, spending three years together in Mercedes, so much respect. "It was a big, bold move to join Ferrari, and to see it now paying off for him is very special to see given the magnitude of the decision.

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Cucurella won the Conference League and Club World Cup at Chelsea By Nizaar Kinsella Football reporter Published 10 minutes ago Real Madrid have a verbal agreement in place to sign Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella after the World Cup. The 27-year-old is currently with Spain at the tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico, but a deal has been struck between all parties for a permanent transfer. Further details of the contract and fee are yet to emerge, although the price is believed to be more than the £43m currently suggested and an initial agreement is in place. Since president Florentino Perez was re-elected and appointed Jose Mourinho as manager, Real are understood to also be targeting Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva and Inter Milan full-back Denzel Dumfries, while France defender Ibrahima Konate is set to join after leaving Liverpool . Cucurella, who joined Chelsea for £63m from Brighton in 2022, was understood to have been keen to return to Spain, having come through Barcelona's academy. He had been linked with Atletico Madrid and a move back to Barcelona . The Catalan also gave an interview during the March international break criticising Chelsea 's hierarchy following Enzo Maresca's mid-season departure. He was part of a core group of Spanish-speaking players who were frustrated by the situation and struggled to perform under Maresca's successor, Liam Rosenior. Rosenior was eventually sacked, with Chelsea finishing 10th and failing to qualify for Europe despite the temporary appointment of Calum McFarlane as caretaker manager. Former Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso has since been appointed as the club's permanent manager for the 2026-27 campaign.

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, New Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola will have been been fascinated by day four of the World Cup By Phil McNulty Chief football writer in Dallas Published 1 hour ago Liverpool's new head coach Andoni Iraola will use the World Cup as a fact-finding mission on the players he has inherited, as well as scouting those he could add to refresh a squad that suffered in a miserable defence of their Premier League title. As he settles in after succeeding sacked Arne Slot, Spaniard Iraola will have had an intriguing day gathering intelligence as he had an interest in all games on day four of the tournament. So what will have caught Iraola's eye as he formulates his plot to revive Liverpool after arriving from Bournemouth? Can Iraola release the real Wirtz? Florian Wirtz arrived at Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen last summer amid great fanfare in a then-British record £116m deal - but remained an enigma as he fell far short of expectations. Liverpool still have huge hopes for a gifted attacking player who has only just turned 23, which means one of Iraola's main tasks is to find a settled position for the German to release the talent he demonstrated before moving to Anfield. This is why Iraola will have been intrigued by what he saw from Wirtz in Germany's 7-1 win against Curacao in their opening World Cup game. The context must be that this was against a side ranked 82nd in the world, but in the colours of his country and in favourable conditions, Wirtz showed some golden touches. Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Florian Wirtz struggled at Liverpool last season but revelled in his freedom for Germany against Curacao In his first campaign at Anfield, Wirtz too often appeared a square peg in a round hole, playing in behind the strikers as well on the flanks, but never flourishing. In Houston, Wirtz played on the left, perhaps giving Iraola food for thought, especially as Cody Gakpo had a poor season in that position. He created Germany's opening goal for Felix Nmecha with the sort of delicate touch and quick thinking that eluded him for much of last term. Wirtz had 39 touches in the final third, instrumental as Germany ran riot. Former England striker Chris Sutton, in Houston for BBC Radio 5 Live, said: "The mitigation must be that this was Curacao, but the Liverpool fans who watched the game, especially in the first half, would be wondering if it was the same Florian Wirtz who played for them last season. "He looked happy in a German jersey, at ease and playing with freedom." Sutton added: "He was sharp off the left, drifting inside to play quick, incisive passes. He was creative and cunning. He looked unburdened. He was a real menace with Jamal Musiala." Iraola will hope to lift the weight off Wirtz's shoulders at Liverpool.

Roy Hattersley, former Labour deputy leader, dies aged 93 15 minutes ago Share Save Add as preferred on Google Maia Davies Getty Images Lord Hattersley pictured at the 1985 Labour Party Conference Roy Hattersley, who served as deputy leader of the Labour Party under Neil Kinnock, has died at the age of 93. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer paid tribute to Lord Hattersley as "a giant of the Labour movement". The Sheffield-born politician entered parliament in 1964 as the MP for Birmingham Sparkbrook, a post he held for more than three decades. He served as a cabinet minister under James Callaghan in the 1970s and became the party's deputy leader in opposition for nine years following its historic defeat to Margaret Thatcher's Conservatives in 1983. Sir Keir said: "Through decades of service, including as deputy leader and a minister, he never lost his belief in a more equal Britain. "My thoughts are with his wife Maggie and his family." Lord Hattersley entered the cabinet as secretary of state for prices and consumer protection in 1976, before Labour was thrust into opposition three years later - after which he vocally opposed the party's shift to the left. As deputy leader, he encouraged his party to embrace multilateral disarmament, the market economy and the European Union. He was made a life peer as Baron Hattersley of Sparkbrook after leaving the Commons in 1997. Roy Hattersley: Labour politician who helped start the party's modernisation Deputy Labour leader Lucy Powell said he had "shaped the Labour Party and British politics". "He was a giant of our movement and of that generation of politicians." She said he had been "kind, thoughtful and full of sound advice". Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle said Lord Hattersley had spent a "life devoted to politics, public duty and writing". New Labour strategist Alistair Campbell described Lord Hattersley as "Labour through and through" and "a loyal and hard working deputy to Neil at a vital time in Labour history".

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Tennis' 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic waved the chequered flag as Hamilton crossed the line By Andrew Benson F1 Correspondent Published 32 minutes ago Lewis Hamilton's historic first victory for Ferrari in the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix was a statement to himself as well as to the rest of Formula 1, and the watching world. It answered doubts Hamilton admitted to having at times himself about whether he could still do the job at the pinnacle of the sport he once dominated. It justified his decision to leave Mercedes for Ferrari. And it proved Ferrari could get back to winning ways after a period that was as difficult for them as it was for the driver who has delivered their first win since Mexico in October 2024. The race turned on a virtual safety car that gifted Hamilton a cheap pit stop and ensured he would come out in the lead from Mercedes drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli. But Hamilton and Ferrari did not need the luck. Mercedes admitted after the race that the seven-time champion would have likely beaten them anyway. It would just have required him to pass their cars on track to do it. Such was his pace on fresher tyres, though, that there was little doubt he would have managed it. Hamilton says Barcelona win beyond wildest dreams Published 1 hour ago Hamilton wins first grand prix for Ferrari Published 4 hours ago 'I allowed it to get to me' For Hamilton it was a moment of redemption after a first season at Ferrari that left him questioning himself, and others questioning him. It was painful to watch him at points last year, as he wrestled with the confusion created by his lack of pace. He called the season a "nightmare". He called himself "just useless". He suggested Ferrari should get another driver. On Sunday, after soaking up the adulation of his team, fighting back tears on the podium, he revealed what he had gone through to get back to the place he belongs. "After a year like last year," he said, "there were definitely moments that I was like, 'Sheesh, maybe it is true that, you know, when you get to a certain point, you lose it.' But I've proven that you don't. You always have it and it just takes work." The criticism he had received had hurt him, he acknowledged. "I mean, I'm only human," he said. "So, there's moments where I see the stuff and for sure there's moments where I allowed it to get to me and penetrate deeply." He went away over the winter, turned off his social media, and set about resetting himself. "The training that I put in was harder than I've ever experienced, to keep myself in good shape," the 41-year-old said, "because I think at the beginning of last year I got injured here, actually, and carried that for months. "Just things that I know is to never second-guess yourself, never doubt yourself. You've got to continue to believe in yourself at the core. And those are the things that I've managed to reimplement into my mentality. I've rebuilt my mi

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Alvaro Arbeloa, Jose Mourinho and Marco Silva look set to be trading places in the space of just over a week Published 41 minutes ago By Nizaar Kinsella Football reporter Jose Mourinho to Real Madrid. Marco Silva to Benfica. Alvaro Arbeloa to Fulham ? It may be one of the more unlikely managerial triangles but it looks set to be completed with Arbeloa nearing a move to west London. But how did it come about? It began, as it so often does, at the top of the chain. Recently re-elected Real Madrid president Florentino Perez decided to bring Jose Mourinho back to the Santiago Bernabeu from Benfica. That left Benfica searching for a manager and interim boss Alvaro Arbeloa without a role. Marco Silva's future had already been in doubt after being shortlisted by Chelsea . As a host of managerial vacancies opened up across Europe, he subsequently emerged as the primary target for the Portuguese club. Benfica secured their man despite Fulham offering a record contract to keep their manager of five years, with super-agent Jorge Mendes brokering deals for both moves. That leaves Arbeloa. Represented by Best of You agent Oscar Ribot, it is understood Mendes recommended the former Liverpool and West Ham defender to the Cottagers, with a move now advanced and expected to go through. It highlights how Mendes, 60, has become a specialist in high-profile managerial appointments. The Portuguese has also been involved in Enzo Maresca's imminent move to Manchester City , while also working with Vitor Pereira, Unai Emery and Nuno Espirito Santo in the Premier League and Championship. This week another Mendes client was in the news. Cesar Peixoto, manager of Gil Vicente in Portugal, is set to take over from Rob Edwards as Wolves manager . Mendes' Gestifute agency has a close relationship with the Molineux club's owners Fosun. More broadly, 10 Premier League clubs will begin next season with new managers, or managers appointed towards the end of last season ( Bournemouth , Chelsea , Crystal Palace , Fulham , Ipswich, Liverpool , Manchester City , Manchester United , Nottingham Forest and Tottenham ) demonstrating a chaotic period in the top flight. Side plot: Arbeloa faces Alonso Arbeloa is best known in England for his impressive two-year spell at Liverpool as a player before returning to Real Madrid for a seven-year stint and ending his career with a single season at West Ham . He earned 56 caps for Spain and was part of arguably the greatest team in their history, which won two European Championships and the World Cup in consecutive tournaments between 2008 and 2012. Alonso and Arbeloa played together for seven consecutive years at club level and even longer with the national team. Mourinho signed the pair from Liverpool in the same summer both Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka joined Real to help them compete with a dominant Barcelona side managed by Pep Guardiola. Such was the closeness of the two that they went on holiday and sp
