If you’re shocked about the Michelle Mone story, wait till you find out that a firm owned by the finance manager of Michael Gove’s 2016 Tory leadership campaign won £170m in PPE deals. After being referred to the PPE VIP lane by the office of… Michael Gove.

The element of UK discussions of emigration (particularly to AUS) I find most interesting is the often-mentioned motivation of "lifestyle." It's rarer to hear the quiet part, which is that they're notably richer than us now. economist.com/britain/2022/1…

Something everybody who works in education needs to know ...
I have helped run an AI-based entrepreneurship program for years, written papers on the econ of AI, and follow the field quite closely. Nonetheless, I am *shocked* by how good OpenAI's new chat (chat.openai.com/chat) is. E.g., you can no longer give take-home exams/homework.
Good phrasing...
