I feel like the UK government will wake up to the risks of AI-generated content at about the same time a “deep-fake” of Rishi Sunak declaring war on Russia goes viral. These new technologies improve exponentially fast. We could be looking at “perfect” quality by the end of 2024.

Not convinced that our new GA4 property is:

Found this bit of nostalgia this morning. Some people remember the moon landing, I remember the introduction of live continuity presenters on the BBC. Surely a high point for the late, great Bill Turnbull too. Rest in peace, Bill.
