Snipped from the official response to my MP raising concerns about the AI bill. “The status quo cannot continue and addressing it is an urgent priority for the DCMS.” The status quo? As in: copyright. As in: you can’t steal my shit to train your plagiarism engine? Reckon that status quo is fine.

Today I visited Barnton Bunker, a disused 1950s nuclear bunker in Edinburgh, with a group of escape room and game designers. Our aim: explore whether it could be used for immersive experiences and larps. tldr: yes, but with some caveats...

I filled most of the middle questions of this consultation out with (paraphrasing) "I believe these questions are here to deliberately discourage me from responding. I have made my stance clear on AI at the start of this consultation." Do not let them discourage you from having your say.

Anas Sarwar chose to bang on about public sector inefficiency, aping the language of Trump and Musk, whilst Grangemouth workers were outside Scottish Labour Party protesting in defence of their jobs and their future. That was a political choice.

Got to add to the mountain of deserved plaudits for the magnificent Miss Austen on the BBC. Perfectly cast, brilliantly written and directed (shout out to @gibbzer.bsky.social and Aisling Walsh). Balances humour and heart-break with consumate skill. One of the best things I've watched for ages.
