@Peter_Fitz We have Portugal v Colombia on & the commentator said they’d never played each other before. My mate thought that was wild so he looked it up. AI summary gave a recap of the game we are watching saying it ended in a 1-1 draw. It was only 40 min in with 0-0. So not right. Unless?

@Peter_Fitz Excellent job & I gotta ask. Why didn’t you talk about AI knocking off people’s IP? For nothing? Music, novels, DIY manuals etc. EG If someone asks about the great Weary Dunlop AI will just access your book (and others) for nothing & answer the question. No $$ for you. Gulp.
At the Croatian Club watching Colombia V Portugal with an audience of wild fans! Pauline would hate this so much…. So very much ….
I am furious. No formal request to use our family name. No acknowledgements. Although I do hope they get a lot of votes. For more outrage visit strongs.biz/elect-peter-st…
Worth repeating - The communications around the budget have been plainly bad. Good communications shows respect while bad communications shows something else. Here are some thoughts on that. strongs.biz/budget-communi…
Is the fact that this computer exists a good thing or a terrifying thing? Asking for a fiend. (Not a spello). ‘Colossus’ was built by xAI in Memphis - it uses 200,000 NVIDIA GPUs specifically to train advanced AI models like Grok.

Should economic mismanagement be a crime? No it can’t be as democracy can’t let that happen - but we need better ways to protect future generations from debts such as we have in the ACT & Victoria. strongs.biz/should-economi… @SaulEslake @ChrisEconomist @SkyNewsAust @patrickdurkin

@VodafoneAU I cannot get my vodafone working and I can’t get through to a human. Very frustrating ………….
I want to put it out there that @ChrisEconomist is the Carl Sagan of economics. Explains it so it’s understandable and exciting! Excellent.
I don't mind talking to a robot if it's in a robot voice and clearly a robot. Talking to an AI generated cutesy pretend human voice is annoying.

Can't speak for others, but I've long called for higher rents and royalties. And I've never believed they should be profit-based. It should be a price-per-unit (ounce, barrel, etc), with a base price then a scaled increase as prices rise.
Peter Strong AM retweeted
Even if the oil and gas tax structure was well-designed (it's not), here's the key fault: Australia only gets paid for *our* resources, if the company makes a profit. If it doesn't, we've given the oil and gas away *free*? In what sane world does that make sense?
The public service is at its best when it reflects the society it serves. Today, that society is more unequal across generations. If the APS fails to manage that shift, it risks becoming disconnected from the problems it is meant to solve. @themandarinau themandarin.com.au/311882-a-gener…
Migrants fought for Australia & we are offspring of people who moved here except for the indigenous peoples who were here before. Then indigenous veterans were booed by a small minority at some Anzac Day events. Disrespect for all our veterans. #ANZAC
If Pauline Hansen becomes our leader (very unlikely but many thought that about Trump) then Greg Sheridan will be her version of Marco Rubio 😳.
A Jewish man charged with anti-semitism and the Pope being attacked for standing up for poor people. Seems in this current world the truth is not acceptable even if it is coming from a Jew or a Pope.
