@o_guest @kerblooee @spookkachu@kleinherenbrink@histoftech Hi Olivia, just seeing your work for the first time. Will dive deeper. Curious - I think my ideas on the Pygmalion approach to AI in a talk I gave at the Australian Museum over six years ago were original - https://t.co/kIngMcBIkT. But maybe not? Precursors?
Some magic in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands yesterday. An enchanting week exploring the rich diversity of life forms @BarefootAtHL which now has its own nature realm - https://t.co/0KZkcUBs2Z - and a fast increasing bioscore. @GuardiansofE
🌟 New Top Sighting Alert! 🌟
An impressive 'Antheraea' has soared to the lead in this October's University BioQuest!
Kudos to Guardian 'Tharaka' from the University of Peradeniya team. It seems the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka, is on a roll with top sightings! 🦋
This excellent sighting of Leaf-nosed Lizard (Ceratophora tennentii) has taken an early lead as 'top sighting' in this October's University BioQuest. Well done to from Guardian 'YumethBandara' of 'University of Peradeniya - Team 1'. Plenty more #UniBioQuest to go! Good luck all.
A thought-piece on the #VoiceToParliament https://t.co/5qQefeLtr3 In the big picture, "the Voice to Parliament can seem both incredibly momentous and remarkably trivial at the same time." #biodiversity#Australia@GuardiansofE
How can tech enhance our nature connection? Engaging experiences can offer new perspectives + inspire deeper curiosity.
🦉 Watch as Lukeenright123 tests our Spirits of the Realms AR experience, encountering a majestic tawny frogmouth - a true embodiment of nature's spirit!
Pick-up in Hong Kong; still have a bit of game left in me. Hit a fluke of 4 treys in row, met with looks of disbelief from Curry, and from me, who then felt sting in arm & decided not to jeopardise multi-mil contract with GS @Warriors.
Setting up & testing a new Nature Realm in Hong Kong for new Spirits of the Realms game. (Best occupation ever?) The urban #biodiversity at #HongKong Park area is incredible, with 218 Guardians having mapped 699 species. @GuardiansofE#SpiritsoftheRealms https://t.co/e2MSbJk0Wn
Hang Mua Cave & Lotus Lake - best Nature Realm visited so. Through the main cave is a small clearing rioting with every species of butterfly we've recorded in the region. #SpiritsoftheRealms#Vietnam@GuardiansofE#NatureRealms
Found some super-intelligent spirits at Hanoi's Văn Miếu, the Temple of Literature, dating back 1000 years. Plus a gorgeous Lime Butterfly (Papilio demoleus) in the gardens. #SpiritsoftheRealms@GuardiansofE
Just posted a thought piece (learned my lesson, kept it very short!) - about the "illusion of Totality" - how even the smartest technologists (e.g. #MarcAndreessen) make a fundamentally wrong assumption about human knowledge. https://t.co/Vl2Y0CD1mq
Enjoying the #biodiversity at Hồ Hoàn Kiếm, a GoE Nature Realm in the heart of Hanoi. 114 species recorded by 84 people across multiple apps. A beloved urban oasis & home to the striated heron, tailorbird, figs, bulbuls, terrapins & more. https://t.co/t2XkYMAkYZ
@GuardiansofE
Captured some AR footage of Singapore's #biodiversity at Gardens by the Bay, part of the new Spirits of the Realm game from https://t.co/cDhN0GgZEw. In the Gardens, 379 people have helped track biodiversity, with 9% of all species known in Singapore recorded there.

Funny you should mention this, I started writing an article about these "fantasies" here - https://t.co/Vl2Y0CD1mq… - but of course we should be careful not to lump all techno-solutions together.
The widespread deployment of outdoor electric lighting means that the night is no longer dark for most people.
A new special issue of Science examines the effects of #LightPollution on the natural world, human health, and the night sky. https://t.co/nVNIAdtOYT
@teelareid What is this pull, Australia, toward mediocrity? Where does it come from? When someone excels, works harder, is more intelligent, is able to articulate deep and noble truths - as Stan has done - why this "crabs in a bucket" mentality? Celebrate brilliance. Celebrate greatness.
