This is Summit. He doesn't know why he would simply sit when he can boing instead. 13/10

There’s a great interview with Nick Park about Wallace And Gromit in last month’s Empire, and this bit in particular stood out. It sums up what artists have been trying to say about AI. The mistakes and the learning aren’t things to be bypassed, but a vital part of the process 🤟

This supports something I’ve suspected for a while

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

Punctuation matters. Way more than you think. Bad punctuation can be devastating. Don't believe me? Alright, then gather around, children, because I'm going to tell you a short true story about how not understanding ONE punctuation mark once cost a company millions of dollars in a lawsuit.

Interesting is the car flawed or is it that Tesla drivers are bad

It's genuinely mad how many people can be persuaded to go to bat for the interests of the wealthy & powerful but if people turn out to protest for the oppressed our press & the usual meatheads crucify them. We have an unsustainable serf mentality in this country that we urgently need to get over.

Roses are red I used to like Twitter Then Elon Musk bought it And made it much shitter
