The Friday Thing #778

Hello Friday. Phew….

The Friday Thing #778 was almost written by AI. I’ve been playing with ChatGPT a lot this week and thinking a lot about the implications of this technology – but I need a bit more time to dwell on it and collate the thoughts in my head, so maybe next week. In the meantime, just a little fun for this week – a link out to something else on the Internet that caught my eye. This global map of notable people is strangely addictive. It shows birthplaces of the most "notable people" around the world using data from Wikipedia and Wikidata to show only one person for each unique geographic location with the highest notability rank. John Lennon for Liverpool which I think Paul may take issue with….but good to see Robbie Fowler in there too ?? It’s fun and I learned some things…which is hopefully a good metaphor for The Friday Thing. Enjoy! (note: it works better on desktop than mobile).?

That’s all for this week. I plan to send the next issue on Dec 23rd – but we’ll see how the week goes ??

?‘til then, happy Friday and have a great weekend.

Addictive. I'm still in touch with one of these people and just sent to him.

    The Friday Thing 883 is a story. These last few weeks, more than many, I have really noticed myself collecting stories.
