I will give a webinar "Demystifying AI" targeted at non-technical people, primarily working in the third sector or consultants working for the third sector.
It's scheduled for 18 Sept, at 11:00 UK time, on Zoom.
If you are interested, let me know, I can DM you a link to the registration.
To be clear: I will be explaining why it is bad.

I think the male Ruby-throated Hummingbirds left. It turned cold yesterday. It was already getting dark, and this lone bird was sitting in the rain for a long time, without being chased by others.
Taken through the window, at 12800 ISO no less. Surprised it worked.

👉 Gaza’s Ministry of Health has recorded four deaths “due to famine and malnutrition” over the past 24 hours, including two children, bringing the total number of hunger-related deaths in the enclave to 317, including 121 children.
👉 All members of the United Nations Security Council, except the United States, jointly backed the IPC’s declaration that famine in #Gaza is a “man-made crisis” on Wednesday, despite Israel and the #USA attacking the findings.
