His advisor came from an investment background, which is already, to me, a huge red flags as the AI hype peak has passed according to a lot of people in tech. (Its not useless at all a catch all term, no magic wand and gen ai has many accuracy and testability issues)
Now this, very clearly a conflict of interest...

That's the one!
Bye bye White abbey house....there's an apartment block near us that nearly got taken out by a tree last storm.
-
Bye bye roof :(
Hope power comes back soon for them.
-
No but wowsa, didn't expect to see more that one!
And that's not an old building either, the one I saw a photo of is 1930 or older.

Can't post images cos on mobile but one house a few miles down the road had lost the walls under the triangular section of the roof! Just blown away.

Hope everyone is ok! Eowyn hit Belfast and winds are mad, 80-100 mph.

Wolf man: not revolutionary but actually not bad at all, a family travels to claim the estranged dad's estate but they get attacked by a strange animal in the woods, and have to barricade themselves in.

Aw, you can't find a job as a doctor? :(
Dress up as a robot and learn techbro waffle with the docai rebrand :)
Some machinelearning/ai healthcare research is pretty useful, such as protein folding and medication research. There are also some diabetes and blood pressure AI tools that I believe are somewhat useful?
But you can't fix lack of GPs with data analytics...

On the NHS... The government in England wants to sell the health data to palantir (a scumbag company probably started with USA secret service funding, implied in Cambridge analytics and Brexit, CEO is Peter Thiel yes that guy) with inadequate protection.
Billions of £ which can go into social care. Job generation in the uk...a little. We know why people are unhealthy, its mostly basic stupid stuff like diet, smoking and lack of exercise / community networks and deprivation.
The idea throwing more IT at government to fix problems caused by lack of staffing and inadequate process overview / bad process flows, well not sure that works.
Can't fix people & process issues with computers. And I say that as an IT worker...
Useful ai applications: wildlife monitoring and recording, basic translation between languages.

Some AI applications are very useful, but everything hyped ATM ain't it.
As generative AI is a statistical approach, not a correct Vs false approach, answers can and will be wrong unless you tack all sorts of additional checks on top, which means it's a lot of work to get it right.
And even then you get wrong results. There are some applications like helping with legal documents, there are customer service chatbot which suck half the time, and diary planners.
Chatgpt, copilot etc. are useful as a search machine with autocomplete you can't trust completely, handy for starting stupid tasks and creating notes, tidying up your CV, small coding tasks.
But Starmer got his 50 points plan from some hype guy and cynical me thinks it's all a way to build water and power slurping data centers ..
Over the water in Norn Ire, serious cycle commuter, and a bit of a bike geek.
Also draw, studying for IT/Maths degree on OU and I keep chickens.
