It's hardly the worst aspect of AI, but seeing so much obviously (and badly-written) ChatGPT content full of this kind of thing is infuriating. You'd think people would generate the text and then try to make it *not* sound like AI...

There's been a lot of discussion recently about positive male role models, and having stumbled upon some of the big (British) YouTubers recently I was really surprised that most of them seem...really nice.
Positive, supportive, open & thoughtful as well as daft/entertaining/watchable.

we're all (rightly) worried about the impact of GenAI on jobs, culture etc. But this is predicting some much bigger storms, and within the next 5 years too. ai-2027.com #AI

Happy #PianoDay (yesterday). So happy Piano Boxing Day I suppose. I hope Father Piano treated you well, and there's enough Piano Cake left for today...
Some more noodling purely for the joy of it. As a perfectionist it's a challenge to *not* over-prepare and practice!

Well, as expected #Adolescence was great. Going through some of the BTS stuff while I emotionally recover! Hugely impressive from a technical point of view - the amount of effort required from the crew and actors, let alone doing some of the shots and camera moves they accomplished. Top-tier stuff.

Send good vibes if you can. Just sent off a pitch for a videogame soundtrack. Great project.
Not sure if having detailed metrics on Reelcrafter for how/where people listened, skipped through etc is helpful or not at this point!

We managed to convince Google to open source PebbleOS. Took a while, but they just did it today! github.com/google/pebble
With that, we're bringing Pebble back! I blogged about it - ericmigi.com/blog/why-wer...

I'm sporadically having a completely unproductive argument with an AI evangelist on LinkedIn, which could probably just be summed up with the sentence, 'Curation is not creation'

Some cues from this new series of Lucy Worsley Investigates, now up on my site. I will do a video at some point, once there's a window of time - probably talking about the overarching theme/motif that spans the four episodes, why it's used and how it's implemented...
