It was 1965 and Marshall McLuhan, decades before we would all be carrying electronic devices, before the transistor was widely available, spoke of our epoch.

We will hear much about emergent properties over this decade.
Some will discount it.
Others will believe it is consciousness.
I know this, the AI hallucinations I have seen, 100s of 1000s, some are astonishing and kept me up at night the last few years.

Chris Bowen on the gas-led bin fire.
"on the day that our old friend the Member for Hume announced a gas-led recovery the price of gas was $4.20 a gigajoule. The gas-led recovery went so well that by the time of the election the price was $34.75. Well Done Angus"

Feds understand this - private investment (with support from some State Governments) will keep momentum up - but we could do much more with better enabling settings from Canberra. Feds getting a free kick as they continue to pander to fossil fuel industry. reneweconomy.com.au/australi…

The inmates of the Canberra Asylum - previously known as the Australian Parliament - are acting out an elitist farce where silliness is matched only by irrelevance. We need a new playwright and a new script.
