Jon Stewart is masterful at satirising this self-satirising president. He's got the best despairing pause face since a freshly-shot Daffy Duck.

It's the 10th anniversary edition of Melbourne WebFest this weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing loads of great web series and I'm extra-chuffed that Bruce has been selected as one of the highlights of the decade for Sunday's Legacy Screenings. Tickets and full program at melbournewebfest.com

The difference between training an #AI model on original IP and the end use of that model is equivalent to the difference between mining ore and driving a car.

Pleased to see the Productivity Commission have now published my response to their deeply-flawed Interim Report.

Worth watching Senators Hanson-Young, Henderson and Pocock call the Productivity Commission out on the BS underpinning their Interim Report on AI and Data, based on estimates of productivity impacts for AI when they don't even know the productivity of the creative industry (2.5% of GDP). #auspol

We've got til Monday 5pm to submit to the Productivity Commission's inquiry into AI & Data. Their Interim Report recommended allowing #AI companies free rein to steal IP and exploit it. Thanks @drwaus.bsky.social for this submission template: digitalrightswatch.org.au/tools-guides...

I had such a fun weekend seeing two terrific contemporary Aussie comedies, Birthright and One More Shot, as a #MIFF double feature - then the next night celebrating my earliest Antipodean comedy hero with But Also John Clarke. Full cinemas cracking up, great stuff.

Just finished Until the Red Leaves Fall by the brilliant @alliparkerwriter.bsky.social, a moving story about storytelling, authenticity, secrets, of Australia's hideous WWII internment camps wrapped in a ripping yarn of the 1950s theatre scene. Bravo! #booksky #AussieAuthor
