A great way to fight back against AI taking away work from creatives is to buy art by actual humans.

I saw this and immediately thought, this film has got me written all over it.

That’s weird. Just a pair of feet on the pavement outside this shop.

My prediction for Celebrity Traitors is that in episode 5 the entire cast is going to be replaced by their lookalikes.

Normally we drink ‘a cup of tea’. It only turns into ‘a nice cup of tea’ following some exertion eg shopping or mild contretemps/disappointing news/ etc.

Thing I just learned. “Lede” as in “bury the lede” is a deliberate misspelling of “lead”. It’s part of a lexicon of misspellings used for annotations by journalists and subs so that notes on copy are removed, rather than included in the body of the text by accident. Others include “dek” and “hed”.

I have a cartoon in the current Private Eye

Cartoon. Two people standing on a stage looking at a third person who is jumping down through a trap door. In the foreground we see the backs of the audience’s heads. One standing people observes “It’s just a stage he’s going through”

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.
