The first half of the morning was a hit!🌟
@AlvaDyw delved into the world of augmented reality in the workplace, while the @Stirling_High students had an engaging chat about artificial intelligence.
Now it's time for a swap!
Keep up the awesome work👏

By one estimate Amazon’s cloud arm, Alphabet, Meta and Microsoft consumed as much electricity as Colombia in 2022—and that was mostly before ChatGPT set off the AI revolution econ.st/3y3HkJB 👇

A carrier pigeon skeleton was discovered in the chimney of a house in Surrey along with a secret message.
The "Pigeon Service" message was found in a small red canister still attached to the pigeon's leg bone.
But it can never be solved...
