Sobering read when you work in the content creation business: ”If your product doesn’t speak machine…” www.thepost.co.nz/business/360...
Modern life will be rubbish if generative AI leaves you behind
OPINION: AI agents don’t care about billboards, influencers or mid-tier radio jingles. They’re immune to branding fluff. They won’t feel loyalty—they’ll calculate it.

Remember during Covid when all those “unskilled” jobs were actually the ones deemed essential. While many with “important” jobs sat around baking bread.
Many of those essential roles are the ones being impacted by pay equity shafting.
Praised then, scoffed at now. Shame on this Government.

WTF!?
The Week That Was:
Under urgency, Govt rushed bills that kill kiwi, silence pay equity claims, & punish striking workers. A war on wāhine, workers, & wildlife all in one week. Meanwhile, developers laugh all the way to the bank
Hika mā!
