@campbellclaret I thought you challenged appropriately and agree with your point that the media have more responsibility to challenge the misinformation that is being promoted about Brexit. Certainly touched a sore nerve with the BBC though!

@FoxyLustyGrover Got my big hair energy right..

@DArcyWaldegrave I’m the same Darcy - we need a support group or something.

@jane_adim @CharlieJGardner Yes, the way i read it was that they are not mutually exclusive. That is, planting new trees is good, but shouldn’t be seen as a substitute for protecting existing forests..

@jacksonfall Hey Jackson - loving this experiment! Quick question, why couldn’t you start another instance of GPT to be your content writer Green_hustle_contentGPT?

Great event today at @Oracle Sydney, meeting new Australia and NZ MD Stephen Bovis, hearing from customers of Oracle and visiting their brilliant #innovation labs.

Thanks so much to @sancharini for the kind invitation!

@nzhammy @nzherald I thought it was 50% and they were integrating it into Bing, creating a search “war” with google. Bing powered by Chat GPT - providing an opinion on the ‘best’ answer to a search, vs google’s ad driven ‘Selection of possible answers’ approach.

@FlyAirNZ - care to comment on the debacle this morning at Akl Airport. 3 flights to Nelson cancelled - 1 x weather, 1 x crew and 1 x mechanical. Sounds like a lot of coincidences to me. Fares skyrocketing, profits recovered but service standards a disaster. Not a good look.

@benshapiro Kevin McCarthy has no control over his caucus. You all wanted chaos, that’s what you’ve got. No one speaks for the GOP any more, so you can’t rely on anything the leadership says apparently.

*Total number of investment rounds is up and up
*Decline in $ entirely from giant growth rounds https://t.co/skidJH0Z2U

@ahi_andy Cool, Stella is in Trinity, loving it. Happy to connect them if it helps.

[Gerald Mackenzie @gedsmack]

@AsherGoldman @Jasonwalls92 Yep, and a chain of supermarkets named ‘fairprice’ - that would be good too.
