In 2016 Microsoft launched an AI bot on Twitter that learned from its interactions with other users. Within hours it was spewing racist, misogynistic tweets and MS had to close it down after 16 hours. And that was in 2016.

Great to see you here Jo. Hope all is well in NZ. We could do with your wise counsel back in the UK!

Gerry has enough joie de vivre for all of us!

Surely after 20 years working for Gerry and as someone who never had any Joie de Vivre to start with, I deserve a place on this esteemed list 🙂

As a reader, short and pithy is good. Suffering from Substack overload. Too many are the usual suspects writing about the usual subjects and saying nothing new. Surprise me. Make your argument and use the numbers to back it up. Having read some of your stuff I think you can nail this. Good luck.

Ha! First time I've had cash in my wallet for a while and it was for the barber! Just noticed it as I took it out of my wallet. No idea how common they are yet.
