Tools and news in the artificial intelligence world.

Morning y’all!

Today’s a bit light but that’s ok! I’m sure we’ve all got things to do. For instance, I’m considering a bunch of new projects and how to best spend my time. I’ve also got a very light Twitter experiment that I’m running but it’s too early to know if it’ll work.

I suppose that’s what an experiment is really about. 🤪
