Am I the only person who thinks the guitarist stole his outfit from Ace Frehley of #KISS? #ABBA #theseventies https://t.co/GXMplsaX3T

The AI/Art genie has been out of the bottle for some time (sorry if that's a surprise). This article looks at some ways that artist and AI can co-exist, the most obvious being as an idea generator.

250 Years... what do you call it? Semiquincentennial? Bisesquicentennial? or for some deep cuts, maybe Sestercentennial or Bicenquinquagenary? Well, you're all correct... https://t.co/NTwSm5dj1U

And here's why The Lego Group is so particular about using "Lego" as an adjective and not a noun (hence why the term 'Legos' is inaccurate)... it's all about #Genericide... https://t.co/kMKdG5VP6K #lego #trademark

Who's watching AI? In Spain, it's the newly formed AESIA. Providing oversight of public and private AI along with guidelines, Spain is positioning itself at the forefront of regulatory supervision. For more info, check out this page: https://t.co/qRiXPUJyCN

"Bricks and Minifigs" destroyed their name by using thug tactics to avoid paying or returning a collection on consignment. Online videos show in detail their practices. They did this because they thought they could roll over a guy for a bunch of plastic toys. #prnightmare #lego

One world, under Uber? Not only is it for rides and Eats, but soon you'll be able to book Hotels as well. Makes sense to keep their base in the same app to extend value and brand. Read more here: https://t.co/W3imMGASt6 #bookings

Another #mcd presio fail. WTH are "beef notes"? I'm more likely to believe this guy is full on AI than a real human being #prepfail https://t.co/vI5j66mt7b

Time for some word stuff... #Heteronyms - two words that are spelled the same, but have different pronunciations and different meanings. For example bass (voice) and bass (fish), or tear (cry) and tear (rip). Now you know, and knowing is half the battle! #words #language

... And this is why you do dry-runs before presentations! "can we call it 'burger', no one refers to their food as 'product'". Cannon fodder for EVERY competitor: "A BURGER you'll WANT to eat!" (don't claim to write ad copy) #mcd #presentationfail https://t.co/GslpzV93mV

Clean Lego. It seems their new factory in Vietnam will rely 100% on clean energy (in the form of solar). I wonder if the upcoming Virginia factory will have the same achievement? Here's the story: https://t.co/9GheGOQjYp #lego #sustainability

The LEGO Group introduces tires made with up 30% recycled material (and more to come). Why is this important? The Lego Group actually makes more tires per year than even Bridgestone or Michelin. https://t.co/F5NZtsPEeA

I have some thoughts on public speaking I'll be sharing over the next few weeks, but first a joke on the topic from Jerry Seinfeld: https://t.co/xeuCb0kv4I

Another story about a business turn around, this time, from Barnes and Noble. Compared to digital books and online shopping, how are they turning it around? Check out the report: https://t.co/QOm84IcgSK
