Looking forward with great excitement to see what Father's Day card I get from my son this year.
Last year's card:
@NormanDunbar Doctor to patient "please go over to the window and put your tongue out".
Patient to doctor "do you need to check it?"
Doctor "no, I just don't like the bloke who lives across the road"
@Spaceways I imagine that the thumb on the left belongs to your good self but we have yet to be introduced to the one on the right.
We often see another thumb, hand and even feet in your photos, so unless you were born in Norfolk (it's alright I was born in Norfolk), they can't be yours.
By the way, how do people in Norfolk greet each other? Yes you guest it, "High Sixes".
And so it begins:
In Derbyshire a policeman has been discovered using AI * associated technologies to 'create evidential material in a number of cases'....
And you can bet across the UK's numerous police forces there are more cases of evidence manipulation & generation by AI that have gone un-noticed or been quietly ignored.
This may not be new (Police have fabricated evidence in the past) but AI makes it much easier & more difficult to detect!
