Fabulous post by @randomwalker.bsky.social & Sayash raising the same concern many of us have about whether we're on the right track with how we're using AI for science. Everyone should read it, take a deep breath & think through the implications. www.aisnakeoil.com/p/could-ai-s...

So pleased to announce I'm one of Activity Alliance's first four ambassadors Only 4 in 10 disabled people feel they have the chance to be as active as they want to be & I'm proud to be working towards sport being welcoming and accessible to everyone www.activityalliance.org.uk/news/9556-ne...

The over-reliance on one region in Canada, France and the United Kingdom to create more than a third of knowledge-intensive employment is striking:

What should we do when access frictions between disabled people emerge with new active travel infrastructure like bus stop bypasses? Is removing them really the best solution? I propose collective access making instead. Available open access here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Powerful point made by @caglarkoksal.com at today's @thetcpa.bsky.social conference: #planning is focussed on sustainable development, but in today's world that's not enough, we now need planning #policy that focuses on #health - in it's widest sense - health of #people and #planet.

As usual, an excellent line-up of speakers at the @thetcpa.bsky.social annual conference. Excited to share the stage as a panelist and dive into some big conversations about the future of planning & health #TCPA2024
