AI presents benefits, but with an arms race between tech giants, we must adopt a safety-first approach. Experts warn that so called ‘superintelligence’ could put human safety at risk - that is why an international strategy is needed to protect against unintended consequences.

Mae manteision i AI, ond gyda rhyw fath o ras arfau rhwng cwmnïau mawr, mae’n rhaid rhoi diogelwch yn gyntaf. Mae arbenigwyr yn rhybuddio y gallai'r hyn a elwir yn ‘superintelligence’ beryglu ein diogelwch. Dyna pam mae angen strategaeth ryngwladol i'n amddiffyn rhag goblygiadau anfwriadol.

Ahead of this Budget, @plaidcymru.bsky.social called for bold action to help households with the cost of living. Labour’s measures today fall short of what was needed. Welsh families won’t feel any difference in their pockets and will continue to be burdened with mounting costs.

Cyn y Gyllideb, galwodd @plaidcymru.bsky.social ar y Canghellor i weithredu go iawn i helpu cartrefi gyda chostau byw. Mae’r mesurau a gyhoeddwyd gan Lafur heddiw yn bell o fod yn ddigon. Fydd teuluoedd ledled Cymru ddim yn teimlo gwahaniaeth yn eu pocedi wrth iddynt barhau i wynebu costau uchel.

The extent to which the news media cycle is focusing on Reform rather than the wider strategic goals of Plaid Cymru as the party that actually won is a sign that much of the media and political establishment is going to again end up blindsided by trends that were visible long before

Pob lwc i Lindsay Whittle 🙌🏼 Lindsay has worked hard for the people of Caerphilly throughout his life. If you live in Caerphilly and want a strong, local champion representing you in the Senedd then vote for Plaid Cymru’s Lindsay Whittle. Amdani 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Thirty years ago, horses died and a girl’s gums turned green in West Wales. The cause? Lead poisoning. Now, it’s happening again. Episode 1 of Untold: Toxic Legacy is out now. 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

It is shocking that over a third of children in Wales are living in poverty and this number is projected to rise. Scrapping the two-child benefit cap has been reported to be the most effective way of lifting children out of poverty but Labour has refused to reverse this damaging Tory policy.

Mae'n warthus bod dros draean o blant Cymru yn byw mewn tlodi ac mae disgwyl i'r nifer hwn godi. Mae adroddiadau yn dangos mai diddymu’r cap dau blentyn yw'r ffordd fwyaf effeithiol o godi plant allan o dlodi ond mae Llafur wedi gwrthod gwrthdroi'r polisi Torïaidd niweidiol hwn.

Last night the Global Sumud Flotilla was intercepted by Israeli Forces, blatantly violating international law once again. I have written to the UK Government urging them to ensure that all those, including my constituent Hannah Schafer, who have been detained, are safely released.

Neithiwr cafodd y Global Sumud Flotilla ei rhyng-gipio gan Luoedd Arfog Israel, gan dorri cyfraith ryngwladol unwaith eto. Rydw i wedi ysgrifennu at Lywodraeth y DU i’w hannog i sicrhau bod pawb, gan gynnwys fy etholwr Hannah Schafer, yn cael eu rhyddhau'n ddiogel ac ar unwaith.

Mae'r argyfwng dyngarol yn Gaza yn gwaethygu bob dydd. Mae gan y DU gyfrifoldeb moesol a chyfreithiol i sicrhau bod Israel yn cydymffurfio â chyfraith ryngwladol. Rhaid parhau i roi pwysau ar Lywodraeth y DU i wneud popeth o fewn ei gallu i roi diwedd ar yr erchyllterau a welwn yn Gaza.

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening by the day. The UK Government has a moral and legal responsibility to ensure Israel complies with international law. We must continue to put pressure on the UK Government to do everything in its power to put an end to the atrocities seen in Gaza.

Newyddion gwych i borthladd Abergwaun, sy’n chwarae rhan hanfodol yn economi gogledd Sir Benfro. Mae’r buddsoddiad yma’n sicr i’w groesawu!

Fantastic news for Fishguard port which is a critical part of the economy of north Pembrokeshire. The significant investment by @stenaline.bsky.social is most welcome!

“£445 million doesn’t scratch the surface” Labour once acknowledged that Wales is owed billions to address decades of chronic underinvestment in rail infrastructure. Now, they’re moving the goalposts, leaving Wales shortchanged once again.

“Dyw £445 miliwn ddim hyd yn oed yn crafu’r wyneb” Fe wnaeth Llafur gydnabod bod biliynau’n ddyledus i Gymru yn sgil degawdau o danfuddsoddi difrif yn ein seilwaith rheilffyrdd. Nawr, maen nhw’n newid y meini prawf gan adael Cymru ar ei cholled unwaith eto.

O HS2 i’r prosiect Rhydychen-Caergrawnt diweddaraf, mae Cymru ar ei cholled dan Lafur. Pam bod y Prif Weinidog mor barod i amddiffyn Starmer a Reeves pan ddylai hi fod yn sefyll cornel Cymru?

From HS2 to the most recent Oxford-Cambridge rail line, Wales is being ripped off by Labour. Why is the Labour First Minister scrambling to defend Starmer and Reeves when she should be standing up for Wales?

Someone get Labour a map. The UK Government claims an Oxford-Cambridge rail line benefits Wales - cutting us out of millions in funding. Scotland and Northern Ireland get their fair share. Why is Labour short-changing Wales?

Keir Starmer’s “island of strangers” rhetoric is reckless and divisive. In Wales, as across the UK, social care is in crisis. The solution is not to turn on migrant workers, but to invest in training, raise wages, and improve working conditions. 🗣️ @benlake.bsky.social

Dwi’n browd i gefnogi #DiwrnodRhyngwladolME Dewch i ni sicrhau fod y salwch yn cael ei drin o ddifrif. I’m proud to support #WorldMEDay Let’s ensure that the illness is treated with the urgency it deserves. #WorldMEDay

Pan roedd 2,800 o swyddi ar fin cael eu colli ym Mhort Talbot, dewisodd Llywodraeth y DU beidio ag ystyried gwladoli. Nawr yn Scunthorpe, maen nhw’n ystyried pob opsiwn. Rhaid i Lafur nawr esbonio i bobl de Cymru pam nad oedd eu swyddi nhw yn werth eu hachub.

When 2,800 jobs were being lost in Port Talbot, this UK Government chose not to consider nationalisation. Now in Scunthorpe, everything is on the table. Labour must now explain to the people of south Wales why their jobs weren’t worth saving.

Number crunching: Cuts to health and disability benefit, and reduction in financial support for carers v unpaid care carried out every year. From the new Private Eye, out now.

Mae’r cynnydd aruthrol mewn biliau dŵr er gwaethaf gwasanaeth gwael yn dangos methiant preifateiddio. Mae'n wasanaeth hanfodol - angen - sydd heb gystadleuaeth. Rhaid cael y sgwrs am ddod â dŵr yn ôl i ddwylo’r bobl. @benlake.bsky.social

Rocketing water bills despite poor service show a failure of privatisation. It is an essential amenity – a need – for which there is no competition. It’s time for a conversation about bringing water back into public hands. @benlake.bsky.social

Mae ymchwil yn dangos y bydd torri budd-daliadau anabledd yn gwthio 50,000 o blant i fyw mewn tlodi. Er hyn, mae'r Canghellor yn ystyried cael gwared ar dreth ar gwmnïau technoleg mawr fel rhai Elon Musk. Mae'n warthus bod Llafur yn blaenoriaethu biliwnyddion dros bobl mwyaf bregus cymdeithas.

The Government’s own impact assessment shows that its disability benefit cuts will push 50,000 children into poverty. Meanwhile, the Chancellor considers scrapping tax on tech giants such as Elon Musk. It's appalling that Labour is prioritising the ultra-rich over society’s most vulnerable.

NEWYDD: Mae Ben Lake AS wedi ysgrifennu at y Canghellor cyn Datganiad y Gwanwyn, yn annog dewisiadau eraill yn lle toriadau. Mae'n bryd codi trethi ar gorfforaethau mawr a chau bylchau treth - dim mwy o doriadau eto i'r rhai mwyaf bregus. Nid yw llymder Llafur yn anochel. @benlake.bsky.social

NEW: Ben Lake MP has written to the Chancellor ahead of the Spring Statement, urging alternatives to cuts. It’s time to raise taxes on big corporations and close tax loopholes - not yet more cuts to the most vulnerable. Labour austerity is not inevitable. @benlake.bsky.social

Tune into @benlake.bsky.social at Westminster Hall yesterday representing his client Brian Buckle - one of the many denied compensation following a miscarriage of justice. He explains how the brutal compensation test goes against our principles of justice. It is time to #PayUp4TimeSpent

Gofynnodd Ben Lake AS i’r gweinidog rheilffyrdd am ei help i egluro i’w etholwyr pam bod prosiect rheilffordd sy’n rhedeg drwy Loegr yn unig yn cael ei ddynodi fel un sydd o fudd i Gymru, gan amddifadu Cymru o £4 biliwn. (Spoiler alert – does neb yn gallu!)

Ben Lake MP asks the rail minister if he can help explain to his constituents why a railway project that doesn’t run through any part of Wales is classified as benefiting Wales, depriving Wales of £4 billion. (Spoiler alert – nobody can!)

The Israeli Government has violated international law by blocking all humanitarian aid into Gaza. Today, @benlake.bsky.social pressed the UK Government on what actions it is taking to prevent further denial of these essential provisions to the people of Gaza.

Mae Llywodraeth Israel wedi torri cyfraith ryngwladol trwy rwystro pob cymorth dyngarol i Gaza. Heddiw, pwysodd @benlake.bsky.social ar Lywodraeth y DU am eglurder o ran y camau maen nhw’n eu cymryd i sicrhau na fydd y cyflenwadau hanfodol yma’n cael eu rhwystro ymhellach rhag cyrraedd pobl Gaza.

Mae Ystâd y Goron yr Alban yn cynhyrchu dros £100 miliwn yn flynyddol sy’n cael ei ail-fuddsoddi yng nghymunedau’r Alban. Neithiwr, pleidleisiodd ASau Llafur yn erbyn cais Plaid Cymru i roi’r un pwerau i Gymru. #YstâdyGoron #GwelliGymru #CrownEstate

Scotland’s Crown Estate generates over £100 million annually which is reinvested into Scottish communities. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Last night, Labour MPs blocked Plaid Cymru’s bid to give Wales the same powers. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #Walesdeservesbetter #Crownestate #YstâdyGoron

Am ymweliad gwych â Needle Rock gyda Ben Lake AS i weld sut mae'r sylfaenydd Ali Wright yn trawsnewid dodrefn bob dydd yn weithiau o gelf Buom yn trafod sgiliau, effaith newidiadau treth ddiweddar a chefnogi twf + creu swyddi

What a brilliant visit to Needle Rock with Ben Lake MP this week to see how the founder Ali Wright is transforming every day furniture into works of art We discussed skills, the impact of recent tax changes and supporting growth + job creation in Mid-Wales

It’s crucial that the UK Government’s ‘growth’ plan does not leave behind mid and west Wales. Promises have previously been made to Ceredigion Preseli that remain unfulfilled – I will be holding Ministers to account on behalf of constituents.

Mae’n hollbwysig nad yw cynllun ‘twf’ Llywodraeth y DU yn gadael canolbarth a gorllewin Cymru ar ôl. Mae addewidion a wnaed yn flaenorol i Geredigion Preseli sy’n parhau heb eu cyflawni – byddaf yn dwyn Gweinidogion i gyfrif ar ran etholwyr.

Mae’r penderfyniad hwn yn ergyd drom i'r dref ac i gymuned addysg uwch Llambed. Mae’r Brifysgol wedi bod wrth galon hunaniaeth Llambed ers dros 200 mlynedd, ac mae’r gymuned yn haeddu ymrwymiad clir gan PCYDDS ei bod yn bwriadu sicrhau dyfodol i’r campws.

This decision deals a heavy blow to the town and higher education community of Lampeter. The university has been at the heart of Lampeter's identity for over 200 years, and the community deserves a clear commitment from UWTSD that it intends to secure a future for the campus.

Prin wythnos ers i Lywodraeth y DU gydnabod bod rheilffyrdd Cymru wedi’u tanariannu, mae’r newyddion hwn yn peri cryn bryder. Os bydd cyfyngu ar gynlluniau, bydd Cymru unwaith eto yn colli allan ar fuddsoddiad allweddol mewn isadeiledd, ar ben y £4 biliwn sydd eisoes yn ddyledus i ni o HS2.
