Am in middle of my 17 hour movie about creativity in documentary.
Have filmed world.
Trying to rethink the genre.
More and more I ask myself "What would #AI not know about this, or see or say?"
The thought excites me.
A bit like how painters reacted to photography? What can I do that it can't?

This gorgeous little boy, Rio, is looking for a home. He’s gentle and apparently good with cats. I can pass on the details to anyone interested.

I don't agree with everything in this article, but here in the UK and around the world - America, Egypt, Iran, India, China, Scandinavia, Spain, Bosnia, etc - I meet or am in contact with passionate young film lovers.

Absofuckinglutely.
See this a lot in ads for writing jobs now: "looking for someone ... with a focus on humanizing AI-generated drafts to ensure they read naturally and score low on AI detection tools". Just hire a writer. Just hire a fucking writer.

On the Irish language revival, I wrote this piece a couple of years ago for the New York Times on some artists I felt were pushing the language forward in popular culture.

Truly remarkable to witness the journeys An Cailín Ciúin and Kneecap have been on since then.

An incredible era for Gaeilge.
