Fosway Group's Lead Analyst for Digital Learning, @mylesrun.bsky.social reflects on another great visit to Learning Live and the growing debate about the purpose of L&D (echoes here from the Fosway Group Symposium last week). www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOHp...

How do you differentiate digital learning beyond AI? Ask @mylesrun.bsky.social. youtu.be/dRyqHXle1qU

Is Old Trafford sold out today? Looks like a quite a few empty seats on the highlights? Same as last year? #IndvsEng

Time to dive deeper - here's Fosway Group senior analyst for digital learning @mylesrun.bsky.social discussing the changing economics of digital content - one of many insights from this year's 9-Grid™ for Digital Learning report. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCZ4...

The champions trophy is demonstrating that a one sided 50 over match is more boring than in any other format? Four innings end quickly in 1st class and a T20 is, erm, shorter. #cricket

This is an interesting discussion about the trends and realities of working from home in 2025. The economics and evidence of benefits are pretty clear but adoption is patchy. And then there’s the culture war and old middle aged white guys in charge… youtu.be/eCRVoXbkHnw?...

Watch this. And then watch it again.

More AI hubris or just another journey up the learning curve? Was this engineer getting a useful set of performance reviews? www.theregister.com/2025/01/23/a...

NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...

New The coming battle between social media and the state Behind the alignment of X and Meta with Trump is a cold business logic — and a position of weakness rather than strength By me, in todays @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/917c...

I am furious that no one insisted I listen to the Bill Evans Trio before. What were you all doing? #jazzsky

Firstly, apologies for sharing a troll based clickbait but... Is synthetic data the answer? It makes me twitchy... techcrunch.com/2025/01/08/e...

Bubble deflating or actually bursting? www.youtube.com/watch?v=unrv...

This kind of hubris about AI makes me cross. (As cross as the deniers). The naivete of some #AI boosters is weird - the inevitability of scientific progress trumps any questions or concerns. Strong whiffs of arrogance as well. lifearchitect.ai/cheese/?utm_...

Read this and tell me why we shouldn't let these greedy bastards go bankrupt. westenglandbylines.co.uk/region/was-t...

Some statements of the obvious? How much of this is actually happening versus social media froth? www.forbes.com/councils/for...

This country needs to pull its finger out on many fronts.

I found this fascinating - the opportunities, risks and unknowns of AI generated video. Another leap - forwards? downwards? (We already believe whatever we like - now we can invent it?). H/T @mkbhd.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY2x...

Does Zak Crawley know? Does he really?

Add this to the revenue share from streaming platforms and it is hard to be optimistic for the music industry- or those who have been powering it anyway. www.theguardian.com/music/2024/d...

A little bit click baity in the title - some interesting findings in the report about productivity increases and the partial impact on roles rather than replacement. www.theregister.com/2024/12/03/a...

Some headlines are too good to miss.

UK consumer users seem unaware and unconvinced of the value of Gen AI. Also continuing to tire of X. www.theregister.com/2024/11/29/o...

Reddit has more users than X and LinkedIn in the UK. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Some great quotes in here amongst the great advice. "Think of your personal data as nude selfies" "Listen to women of colour. Everything bad that happened on the internet happened to them first." "Any man who feels the need to build a rocket is not overconfident about his masculinity. "

The Open AI windows are not quite as rose tinted as they were. Espionage or protest? techcrunch.com/2024/11/26/a...

In contrast to social media where anger and shitposting are hallmarks of success, AI responds better to polite enquiry. Surely emperor Elon can fix this for us? www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-yo...

Verbal assessment making a comeback to counter AI? I wonder … some biases will remain and blot suitable for all subjects? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Definitely a Sarah Vaughan kind of day. The best jazz vocalist…?

Regulating social media for the under 16s is popular now. Will there be help of for the rest of us self abusers?
