“Don’t like it, don’t use it”. I certainly don’t need to tell you that AI is one of the biggest talking points of modern tech – you’ll have picked up on that if you’re a regular reader of this very site. Generative AI has become a major source of contention across all walks of life,…

The concert was announced earlier today and will take place at the 1999-person venue,…
I have a couple of very vague memories of playing Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League back when it released a couple of years ago. Mostly, I remember thinking ‘meh’. Some of the action was quite fun—although it quickly lost its charm—I didn’t mesh with any of the characters and their hit-and-miss humour, but its…
