Parking is difficult to find at QUEH, Glasgow, but what makes it worse are non-working parking-spaces sensors not displaying status of filled/available spots in multistorey parking facilities. Causes unnecessary stress & increases risk of collisions. @NHSGGC plz look into this.

How do I contact @houseoffraser customer service team to return a faulty item. It says on their website to contact this team before returning item but I am unable to find how to get hold of them.

Just saw the documentary on Steve Fulcher catching Halliwell on Netflix. What is more imp- giving police adhoc powers outwith established guidelines to save a life/find a missing person/body OR risk police abuse if guidelines aren't enforced in all situations #Aconfession

This way you not only will have an independent grp of ppl recording things objectively without any influence of police authority, but also have a witness for the entire process who can protect the suspect and the police personnel equally from any abuse of the system #Aconfession

So bottom line- we should focus more on how to prevent anyone abusing the system, be it a suspect or a police personnel rather than choosing one over the other. #tocatchaserialkiller #Netflix #Aconfession #martinfreeman

What a story! Quite grey from an ethical perspective, but Karina's comments remind me of Dr. Erskine, the doc who gave Steve his powers as Captain America when he says that the serum (AI here) just enhances whatever a recipient has to offer, so gud=very gud & vice versa
Meet Aleksandr Zhadan. This 23-year-old developer from Russia used OpenAI to talk to 5,240 women on Tinder and automated dates with 100 of them. Now he is getting married to Karina, the best date found by his algorithm. Here's the wildest Valentine's story you'll ever hear:🧵
Community note
The thread contains misleading information. It claims that he eventually met the perfect girl in December 2022. However, there is a timestamp on a photo from 2019. It also claims that he used OpenAI's GPT-4, but it was not released until March 2023. openai.com/research/gpt-4

⚽️All #footballfans know losing is much more familiar than success 😭 So why keep going back? The view from a behavioural scientist (and fan) on this seemingly irrational behaviour as #WorldCup2022 is about to start ⚽️ bi.team/blogs/is-it-irration…
