One of my favourite use-cases for AI is to generate ALT-Text for images that I post on the web. Claude does an excellent job of analysing images. Check out the Alt-Text for the image below.

In Australia, Boxing Day is usually spent recovering from a food coma and watching either the Boxing Day Test (cricket) or the Start of the Sydney Hobart yacht race. If neither of these things appeal to you, why don't you listen to the latest episode of On The Reg podcast?

I just had one of those "Holy Crap" moments. I experimented with Google's Gemini AI to create a video from one of my documents. It took the content of the document, suggested scenes in the video, put in transition and other effects, suggested a script and narrated the script over the top. 90 seconds

I’ve been following Nick Bloom’s work for a few years. He’s always been a strong promoter of WFH benefits.
I can’t imagine ever going back to the soul-crushing commute.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working with the ECRs from the Monash Law School. We took a tactical look at what we can do in the day-to-day maelstrom of work to gain some control over our day.
Today, I've consciously decided to revisit my amount of Work in Progress and renegotiate. #calm

Woah. There’s some smart stuff being written about ai. Here’s a few of my take-always:
1. This stuff will be nuts when you begin to chain different ai models together.
2. Some of the 4.0 models are spookily good at mimicking human interaction.
3. Add robots for even more spooky.

Decided to run a full system scan with my anti-virus software to see if something has somehow slipped through despite my best efforts to keep the nasties at bay.
It's been running for 3.5 hours so far and isn't even half-way done...
Shoulda started it earlier.
