@8teAPi David Guetta was already pretty quick in turning this one into a track https://t.co/xZ2LqWhcPM

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@8teAPi Agree, think there's a number of bits where for a proportion of people, the current 'human' offerings are going to be revealed as deficient when there's an AI choice on offer https://t.co/rXOScboOFE

@jonkudelka Excellent, I do like surprises

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@jonkudelka But do the salmon run up the seating? And what happens if they get covered in chocolate?

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@jonkudelka Happy to wait until Monday to understand where the salmon runs fit in.

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@jonkudelka Thank you for clarifying. I was having trouble building the mental picture.

Say what you want about AI generated songs, but at least now the gap in the market for Nordic symphonic power metal ballads about working in the public service can finally be addressed https://t.co/K5TNdNJaYL

Some idle thoughts about how large language models might disintermediate the messaging and the voice of governments and public sectors. https://t.co/38DJ24Fk52

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@cameronwilson When do we have one that only allows you to communicate via images you've generated via AI apps?

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@purserj Yes. https://t.co/2CmtqMIDqU

@kirichman What is good?
I think I can safely say that it'll suffice

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

Why can't we go back to having one platform to rule them all? I'm at CaptainInnovate over at threads.

Our team at @IPAustralia has published some 'provocations' and observations about what generative AI might mean for the IP system https://t.co/yW7Ti2u7HE.

I blogged about how we'll need to start designing government content around the needs of Large Language Models and generative AI https://t.co/JweX0ASzEH

[Alex Roberts @CaptainInnovate]

@maltbyps Really liked your piece Paul, nice to see some parallel thinking.
