Just had a staggering view of how the AI bubble has fucked up PC components - August *last year* I bought a 4tb SSD for £204.99. Today, the *exact same hard drive* on Amazon is selling for £469.99, *reduced from* £525.19

I've not been in England for 5 months. But, reading the news from afar, it's clear my fellow countrymen are ready to take their country back. So. When I return, I look forward to drinking tea (wait, that's Indian), eating battered fish (wait, that's Portuguese)...

England flags spark pride and concern amid anti-immigration protests
The red and white St George's Cross and the Union Jack flags have proliferated along streets across England in recent weeks in what supporters say is a campaign to show national pride, but others fear is part of growing anti-immigration sentiment.

I'm not going to name any film in particular, 'cos I am not in the biz of publicly bad mouthing the work of others, but I am convinced the reason so many people think Gen AI videos are good is because they've had their standards lowered by two decades of mainstream cinema being visually plain.
Rewatching Spielberg's War of the Worlds, it's just another example of how BAD movies look these days, that film is 20 years old and it still looks better than 95% of blockbusters being released today.
Why? Because talent, skill and style beats money and modern special effects.

This is actually very clever because like their human counterparts, AI MPs will be confidently wrong, a bit racist, unwilling to ever give an honest opinion of their own making and also probably destroy the planet.
Introducing the first AI prototype of a British MP🇬🇧🤖
When constituent and local business owner, Jeremy Smith, approached me with this idea, I was very excited to work with him. The AI revolution is happening and we must embrace it to see how it can be useful, in all sectors.

The biggest thing I cannot wrap my head around with “AI stans” is, why do you want to work alone?
“We can replace everyone with bots!”
Okay. But why don’t you want to collaborate and hang out with others? Isn’t that literally what life is?

ChatGPT is designed to make people lazier and stupider. It’s a feature not a bug
New research from MIT found that those who used ChatGPT can’t remember any of the content of their essays.
Key takeaway: the product doesn’t suffer, but the process does. And when it comes to essays, the process *is* how they learn.
