w/Wiser! #102 - Friday 2nd December
Preamble
In this week's Wiser!:
- Elon continues to dominate the airwaves. Which partly explains why Trump hasn't returned to share the limelight on Twitter. But is there a more cynical reason for Musk driving Twitter into the ground...
- ...which is why I've reviewed 10+1 alternatives to Twitter,
- Meta get fined again making that almost a $1 billion to the EU in 2022,
- Meta also in the news for Galactica, the AI that was supposed to change the world of science, but...
- The UK's Online Safety Bill should be setting a high bar for protecting kids, reducing hate and preventing crime. Does it?
- Consumer brands are piling into emerging tech - Porsche and BMW have joined in this week,
- Disney have an AI time machine to change the age of actors in movies,
- And, meet Andi, the AI search engine that's much better than Google.
Plus, tons of links, headlines and my guest appearance on someone else's podcast.
