Really enjoyed doing the #BookSky 💙📚 #Books #BookChallenge these past few weeks. Great way to reflect on books that have influenced me. So many to choose from and I didn't include any music books or bios, a particular favourite genre of mine... so... (drumroll 🥁)

Thoroughly dispiriting - 4/5 @theguardian.com #rugby writers have #Wales finishing last in this year's #6Nations and it's pretty hard to offer a decent argument against this. Sad state. Pob lwc in Paris tonight lads, but it's going to take a hell of shift... 🏉 www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/j...

A PSA that I really wish was unnecessary: Do not put personal or private data into *ANY* #genAI #AI system or #chatbot, irrespective of who owns it, because anything uploaded may be taken by said owners and used for training data (and a great many other things) www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

This is deeply problematic from @googlesearch.bsky.social AI Summary. Positioning #facilitatedcommunication on a par with other #AAC #AugComm approaches is factually wrong. Searched: "medicare aac". Reported. @bronwynhemsley.bsky.social @katharinebeals.bsky.social @fcisnotscience.bsky.social

An exciting day as we begin induction tutorials for the fifth cohort of our #MSc in #AssistiveTechnology @dundee.ac.uk - this is our largest group of students to date and we are looking forward to welcoming all of you to this year's run of the course! www.dundee.ac.uk/postgraduate...

Seldom been prouder of the fact that I have never had a #Facebook account. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Really excited to see this incredible, life-saving #medicaldevice in use, and proud to say I played a tiny (like, TINY) part in the testing and validation of it while working at @cuhnhs.bsky.social - huge congratulations to the @royalpapworth.bsky.social team! www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

This increasingly homogenous tone brought about by #AI is something we discuss a lot - consider how much greater the impact is for #AAC #AugComm users. Identity may be conveyed through text-to-speech, where AI might soon arrive to "improve" their output. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

@emscougal.bsky.social Oh hi there friend!!

Hard relate. Could not care less about anything stolen from the Crown Jewels, but tea has no place in / near a microwave! (Another masterstroke from @xkcd.com) imgs.xkcd.com/comics/makin...

Anyone interested in #AI in #healthcare #oncology #cancer: our paper "OSAIRIS: Lessons Learned from the Hospital-Based Implementation and Evaluation of an #OpenSource #DeepLearning Model for #Radiotherapy Image Segmentation" is #openaccess until 29/12: www.clinicaloncologyonline.net/article/S093...

Vital reading for any #bskyspeechies or those involved in #AAC #AugComm - this is a brilliant read, incredible resource & available entirely free, ahead of @bronwynhemsley.bsky.social and team's upcoming systematic review on #GestaltLanguageProcessing #GLP #NaturalLanguageAcquisition #NLA

Early risers at #ASHA2024 #ASHA24! Go see @sarahhayward.bsky.social present her incredible work on participatory action research for co-designing and developing #AAC #AugComm and education resources to promote collaboration between parents and professionals: plan.core-apps.com/asha2024/eve...

If you're attending #ASHA2024 #ASHA24, I urge you to go and listen to @bronwynhemsley.bsky.social present her team's work - I was lucky enough to see a version of this at Communication Matters Conference this year and it is a brilliantly constructed study with hugely important outcomes for practice!

Taking this opportunity (just because I can) to make my first ever @bsky.app post from inside the House of Commons! Hello #ATech friends - lovely to see you all here!
