Cuddly Educational AI!
Interesting & scary thread for those at BETT and other education events. Linked abstracts worth a peek.
Something about this "Education AI" cuddly cuboid mascot, apparently greeting visitors to the big UK edtech show BETT this weekend, really freaks me out. It's like a fuzzy friendly black box disguising exactly what AI in education entails. pic.twitter.com/ieaZfofye2

technology weirds the world
My big thesis about technology is that “technology weirds the world” — instead of ruining or fixing it, it typically changes it in a bunch of unexpected ways, twisting the contours of human life into shapes never seen before.
Lovely sunny day. Had a walk from the Braeval carpark, out towards Calendar, saw my first butterflies of the year, peacocks, quite a few this, one quite ragged. 
Bonus Coal Tit
Some more photos on flicker, celandine & primroses were out.
A mild gentle evening, broken only by the zooming of territorial coots.
Cherry Plum Blossom in Victoria Park this evening. Lovely mild spring day.
The Next War
It will take place,
it will take time
it will take life,
and waste them.

Black on Blue
Two years ago today was the last day before schools closed for lockdown. Seems longer than that:
Kilpatrick Muir
Blue skies
5 jays sidling off
Larks
The first primrose
A roe watching through the trees
No blackthorn yet, tiny buds
A weasel nipping across the road
