Given the way X is heading right now, I’m planning on reducing my time on here, and posting way less. Shame - as I used to love Twitter, and all the workshops and training I did on it. Let’s just say it’s no longer the place it once was and it’s time to take a step back...

A "bonus episode" of the Podcast today (since it's the holiday week for many of you). An "absolute banger" from a new musical artist you've never heard of before.. 100% AI generated. Catchy for sure... but is it music? Take a listen! open.spotify.com/episode/3cd…

Loved the #glasgowAIethics talk from @ElectricWeegie - insight into employers and what they want from AI skills and employees… “AI is not replacing tasks or people, it’s enhancing them. It’s Evolution, Not Revolution” Use the tools, and get stuff done. 👍

Great quote from @drgriffis at #glasgowAIethics : “the 1st step when considering implementing AI, is bringing everyone round the table, and asking for all opinions and views”. Ie: stakeholder involvement.

Today’s AI image generators are slowly (but surely) getting better at being more inclusive and representative. Bias will always be a problem, but progress is happening…. #glasgowAIethics

Rightly - some important chat on the environmental impact of AI at #glasgowAIethics - but disappointing to see old stats, not truly reflective of the latest advancements and current true impact. I’d encourage a wee read of this: nsdesign.co.uk/chatgpt-energ…

Great presentation from @chrisdburr who explained in simple terms how LLMs work, and gave brilliant examples of “word probability”. #glasgowAIethics
