A fantastic, and surprising optimistic lecture about journalism and AI.
John Micklethwait, Editor-in-chief @Bloomberg (@business) is here on campus at @CityUniLondon to deliver the James Cameron Memorial Lecture on "Journalism in the Age of AI". Thank you to City Journalism Head of Department @glendacooper for your welcome. #Cameronlecture24

Take your seats at the @RoyalAlbertHall for our concert at the @BBCProms tonight!
The programme will be kicking off shortly, but don’t worry if you didn’t manage to get a ticket – you can catch the whole concert on @BBCRadio3 or BBC Four this evening.
Thank you very much to everyone @Cityintpolitics for a brilliant 3 years!
Looking forward to returning to @CityUniLondon in September for a MA in Broadcast Journalism @cityjournalism!
Can't stop thinking about a remarkable stat that @Peston said during the first press conference with the new PM.
80% for the country didn't vote for Starmer, including those who didn't vote.
Somewhat bizarre.
A fascinating event. Thank you @USEmpire and co for organising it.
A great way to end my time with @Cityintpolitics.
I look forward to seeing what The Finsbury Institute does next.
“A thinktank for our times”: City launches Finsbury Institute - “With the conference ‘Polycrisis Interrogated’, we are seeking to interrogate relationship between knowledge and power. Knowledge is not neutral”- thanks to all our great team and speakers! city.ac.uk/news-and-events/n…

At Youth Sport Trust we know the only way to get more young people active is by empowering them to inform and shape the development of solutions. Here’s what the young people we accompanied to last week's roundtable discussion with @DCMS @StuartAndrew & @ugomonye had to say.
Thank you @YouthSportTrust!

A great opportunity to join a fantastic team.... xitter.cf/nfranklinpierce/status… – at Wimborne Minster, England
And in the blink of an eye my summer placement @nonclassical was over 😢. I can't thank @nfranklinpierce and the whole, incredible, team enough. They have been amazing colleagues and I sure that I'll be hearing their name pop up everywhere in the future.
Thank you very much! – at Islington, London
