We made a little video thing to mark Alphaville’s debut on Substack. As you can probably guess after watching this, we’re not going to be pivoting to video any time soon.

A cool use of AI in newsgathering, this. US companies are talking more and more about the risks rather than the benefits of AI in their SEC filings (while still being super-optimistic in earnings calls).

I would very much like the studio to be doing more publication aligned work this year. We're bloody good at it.

We've got availability from June 2025 👀

I'm once again asking mutuals to write for @piccalil.li. We pay!

I will open up to submissions this year, I promise. We've got more work to do to snuff out AI slop first because I will never allow that crap on piccalilli.

Just DM or email me, moots :)

ECO Home

Seen this guy in my recommendations a few times who does a breakdown of the cost of his eco home setup ev-man.co.uk/ecohome/.

Looks like he has done a recent video on his heat pump!
