Just watched Ann Droid on BBC iPlayer. Heartwarming and hilarious, but rooted in something bigger: human emotion, dignity, and love. Intelligence isn't empathy, automation isn't care. #DianeMorgan and #SarahKendall get it spot on. Sue Johnston is genius casting. 🤖 www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Ann Droid - Series 1: Episode 1

Sue’s husband Dave has died, and her son is moving out to fix his marriage, so he decides to buy his mum a surprise – a care provider with a difference to help her live independently.

Such sad news. He brought joy to the screen and stellar performances. By far the most humble actor. My prayers are with your family Mr Neill. Rest well xx www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ju...

Sam Neill’s cause of death revealed to be pneumonia

Neill’s longtime representative says the actor’s family agreed to release the information due to ‘inaccuracies and outright falsehoods’ in media

A tough watch. Old BT Sport data instincts kicked back in fast. 91% pass accuracy, 53% possession. Felt like a difficult watch though, and the data backs that up - Norway had it close at points. Well done England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽. #England #WEuro2026 #DataAndFootball #FootballStats

A post...about a Postcard. 📮 Every one starts life as a hand-drawn sketch on a whiteboard. AI then helps transform it into my digital world—keeping the original idea, adding clarity and making it easier to share. #AgenticAI #MarketingOps #AI anthonyjmagee.substack.com/p/unlocking-...

Unlocking the HubSpot API in the era of agentic marketing

I've been thinking a lot about where the real value sits in marketing AI...but thinking isn't where I've spent my time. Doing is.

Long week. Delayed trains. Too much thinking time 🚆 Finished and published my latest newsletter tonight on wearable AI, privacy, trust, and why people deserve a voice in shaping what comes next. www.linkedin.com/pulse/ai-gla...

AI glasses, privacy, and the laws still catching up

Having spent my train journey this morning reading the latest reporting around AI glasses, privacy, surveillance, and wearable AI regulation, I wanted to put the finishing touches to my perspective he...

As someone who works in data and AI, I genuinely love and am impressed by what @spotifyuk.bsky.social is doing with Gen AI playlists. A really strong mix of contextual understanding, personalisation, and genuinely good recommendations 🎧

Spotify’s Gen AI playlists are a brilliant example of AI orchestration done well. Better context + intent modelling = fewer retries, less wasted compute, lower environmental impact, and higher adoption. AI efficiency is not just model size. It is smarter design. #AI #DataStrategy #LLM

Frank Skinner on. @miloedwards.bsky.social doing Roger Moore. I’m laughing… and my dog genuinely looks like she is too. Either elite comedy or elite emotional mirroring 😂. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... @frankskinner.bsky.social

Donald Trump and his inner circle are simply bullies. I seldom comment on politics, but the UK has a checkered past (who hasn't) but we learn from it and try to avoid history repeating itself. Strength in peace through cooperation not threatening friends with valid perspectives.

AI will change jobs. It always does. The question is whether we create better work, better skills and wider opportunity. That’s the focus of my latest edition of my newsletter. Use the tools. Keep people at the centre. 🔗 www.linkedin.com/posts/anthon...

My niece and I are autistic and completed our 5k for Autism Acceptance Month. Our Chipathon was slow, steady and joyful with star dog Chip 🐶 My sister and brother-in-law were brilliant allies. We smashed it. Still time to donate 💙 waam.autism.org.uk/fundraising/... @journalautism.bsky.social

I'm walking 5k this April for the National Autistic Society is fundraising for National Autistic Society

Autism awareness is not enough if systems still fail autistic people. Acceptance means redesigning schools, workplaces and society around autistic lives. Later this month I’ll walk 5k with my niece for waam.autism.org.uk/fundraising/... www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

In an increasingly AI-assisted world, how we communicate matters. If something feels automated or dehumanised, say so. I rarely respond to spray-and-pray InMails. But if there’s real context, segmentation, or effort then for sure I’ll engage. Respect people’s time. Respect the human.

Spoke to someone at the station today with family in Iran. Politics fades when someone says they’re worried about people they love. Whatever our views on governments, ordinary people carry the consequences. We are more alike than different. Solidarity with families living with uncertainty today.

AI literacy isn't about fear. It's about agency. When young people understand how AI works, they shift from passive consumers to critical, empowered users. @dajbelshaw @ictevangelist #AILiteracy #CriticalThinking

80% of secondary students use generative AI routinely. 40% trust outputs completely without verification. Not a reason to panic. A reason to be intentional. @danfitzpatrick #AIinEducation #DigitalLiteracy

Critical thinking. Prompt engineering. Questioning the machine. Core skills now. They belong in English Language and Computer Science, blended. In my opinion. @dajbelshaw @tombennett71 #CriticalThinking #FutureSkills #UKEducation

The goal isn't automation. It's augmentation. AI should amplify outcomes for students, not replace the tacit knowledge and skills we're trying to build. @ictevangelist #EdTech #AILiteracy

Looking forward: schools don’t need to be AI experts. They need to understand experience - how digital systems shape confidence, behaviour and emotional regulation. That’s where wellbeing, evidence and education genuinely meet. #EduTech #DfE #Education

I love AI. That's exactly why frameworks matter. Bias exists not because AI is bad, but because it learns from us. Without conscious choices, we bake in inequity by default. @leonfurze @danfitzpatrick #AIinEducation #ResponsibleAI.

People log on BlueSky and see thousands of posts. People log on Instagram and see thousands of pics. People log on Facebook and see thousands of posts. But people open an email to read just you. Most don't understand how big of an advantage this is.

Many UK teens say AI makes learning faster but sometimes shallower. Concerns about creativity and independent thinking highlight why AI literacy must sit alongside adoption. https://www.oup.com/education/secondary/ai-and-learning-research

National Literacy Trust shows around two-thirds of young people use generative AI, often for schoolwork. Guidance and literacy make the difference. https://literacytrust.org.uk/research-services/research-reports/young-people-and-teachers-use-of-generative-ai-to-support-literacy-in-2025/

UK datasets show no simple link between time online and later mental health outcomes. Context, purpose and interaction quality matter most - nuance beats panic. That doesn't mean there is not a link. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/sep/06/screen-time-mental-health-children-studies

Looking back; thinking forward: Young people don’t experience AI as neutral software. Research shows conversational AI is often perceived as relational, not transactional - trust forms quickly when systems feel human. https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.15117
