Fascinating #AI chat on @SOEPTech this week. We're discussing.... discussing... erm, well actually the excellent @sophiasgaler can put it much better than me :)
So why are people in #Ghana not keen on #AI - it's unlikely to replace #jobs + it can translate #languages the mainstream apps + platforms don't? @sophiasgaler has been to #Ghana to find out more + she's on @SOEPTech.

Great blog from @tfxz about our @digitalplanet reunion event in London. It was such a thrill to meet you @tfxz. A memorable evening all round :)
I have written a short blog with a few photo about the event: tfxz.wordpress.com/2024/03/2… @digitalplanet @SOEPTech @GarethM @GBoddington @aniatech @billt
I was really taken by what an important force YouTube is in India. The platform's actions in the run up to the Indian election matter. The outcome of the joint investigation is worrying to say the least.
4bn people can vote in >60 countries this year, many will lose access to the #internet. @ProtonVPN offer access to free VPN servers to those at risk of internet shutdowns during #elections. All with @GarethM and @PeterGuest

I've been loving this year's @CrystalPalaceFF film festival. It's one of the best things about living here. The haunting and brilliant Ill Fares the Land topped off the Mid Length Film evening. youtube.com/watch?v=DsRaN-Wp…
ALT The photo shows a page from the Crystal Palace International Film Festival programme. Film titles include Lo Sguardo (The Look) by Edoardo Ulivelli, Bandits by Nick Alexander, Sidney by Iris Breward, Frontier Grenzholz by Axel Schuldes and Ill Fares the Land by Patrick Ireland.
This is genuinely not self promotion, but do check out this and/or other @tldltoday podcasts. Senda is a thoughtful natural interviewer who makes it sound easy. linktr.ee/toolongdontlisten
I had such a great time speaking with @GarethM on his experience, from engineering to broadcasting and podcasting at the BBC. Tune in to the full episode here:

Excellent evening at @booksellercrow. In summary: a conversation about AI is not a proper conversation if it lacks the word "human". Currently merrily making my way through the book.
A book was launched. A shop was packed. More wine had to be sent for. Thanks all who came out to @booksellercrow this evening. So enjoyed discussing the history of AI, and the very human heart of our endeavours to build god-like machines. On sale everywhere tomorrow x
