This is a hoot even if it’s about the Budget. Why ‘surprise announcements’ are leaked before they’re surprisingly announced, why PuFins are big in the City, politicians telling bad jokes and what happened when Beth Rigby shouted at Angela Merkel. #StrongMessageHere

Just been listening to #StrongMessageHere with @aiannucci.bsky.social Stewart Lee and @carolecadwalla.bsky.social where they concluded the tech bros identify with Bond baddies without realising they are baddies. Same shit, different genre.

I think the correct theological answer is that AI cannot sin because it is not created imago dei. Consciousness isn't the bar. Animals cannot murder. Well trained pets cannot burgle

There have been a lot of exceptional segments in #StrongMessageHere, but the part that begins with Daniel Thomas in this episode is, for me, the apogee. I should have played it to my fellow train passengers to explain why I was crying with laughter…:

Last week's #StrongMessageHere chuckles from @nataliehaynes.bsky.social give way to Stewart Lee's crackles - or should that be Krakles? But the high point is @aiannucci.bsky.social's genius chess game with AI, manoeuvring it to reveal its game and why it can't ever be trusted. Hope he publishes it.👇
Jump to 28'40" to hear 3 minutes on #ai explaining its own confabulation to #armandoianucci (and speculation as to whether that's just another fold of dishonesty:)

There’s a lot of talk about how Meta Glasses, and similar AI smart glasses, can increase independence for blind and partially sighted people.
So, it’s over to you: what’s your favourite accessibility feature of Meta Glasses as a blind or partially sighted person?
