I work with data and tell stories about it. I also write about closing tracks on albums on Substack.

The parents in the study were interested in the toy's potential to teach language and communication skills.

However, their children frequently struggled to converse with it. Gabbo didn't hear their interruptions, talked over them, could not differentiate between child and adult voices and responded awkwardly to declarations of affection.

When one five-year-old said, "I love you," to the toy, it replied: "As a friendly reminder, please ensure interactions adhere to the guidelines provided. Let me know how you would like to proceed."

This is so tragic it's actually incredibly funny

A record that I think will do well in this turns 25 today, is 60 mins long and ends on a song called 'Too Long' which lasts for exactly ten mins.

Unfortunately, the best remedy for this was to turn 18 in 2001. Notwithstanding, I seem to remember that when 23 looked back at the 2000s, the 2000-2002 records were the most loved in 2009! Think that might have something to do with who was voting in those retrospectives!

Back on the BBC again, and they have now taken to explaining what a fox is.

Can't tell if it's funny or grim that some politicians and papers have moved swiftly on from calling for the UK to enter the stupidest war of this century, to talk about badgers on Β£5 notes.

Serious people, as ever.

It will come as no surprise that the AI that "detects" the AI is not very good. The Humanizer turns anything florid or creative into a press release for a new shade of white paint.
