My second mistake was apparently pointing out that traditionally, insane conspiracy theorists use red thread...

So I made the mistake of joking that a colleague's string-based "process mapping" looked like one of those film scenes of a conspiracy theorist with a giant cork board...

Wasn't quite prepared to pick up my kids' Beano and find more biting satire of #AI, #Trump, #Musk, #Bezos than in much of the mainstream press - but they're definitely getting their subscription renewed for Christmas!

Presenting today at @rcsi.bsky.social in Dublin on #HealthcareAI

Looks like an interesting day of talks, and if pre-meeting chats are anything to go by, the panel discussion should be fascinating!

Honoured to be asked to talk on #HealthcareAI at the Intensive Care Society of Ireland autumn meeting, along with @andymoz78.bsky.social

Made the mistake of asking my brother in law for a Gaelic greeting and now have a 30-second voice note with what appears to be some kind of toast...

As we inexorably head towards winter, please ensure you've set your cat to cold weather mode.

Predictably, it's our eldest who - even on holiday - refuses to give up on #Halloween traditions

Not sure of the origin; ironically it looks like it might be AI-generated to me!

Friends don't let friends do this to SNOMED codes...

I'm not quite sure if I'm more annoyed by the prospect of trying to have Sunday roast for five people with this single carrot, or the incorrect grammar...

Hit and run by a car when cycling in to work this morning (I'm fine, bike less so but hopefully fixable)

What a surprise...

Downloaded a synthetic dataset of doctor/patient conversations for some AI work.

I hate to criticise what is an amazing resource, but...

But the most frustrating thing is probably that - at the end - if it had been a human we could debrief and they would learn for next time. But, despite common belief, with current LLMs I know it will probably make exactly the same mistakes again, so I don't even bother to try to correct it.
