This video was generated by Sora. That's the new model by OpenAI. The most advanced text-to-video tool created so far. I'll share the videos here. Absolutely insane. Prompt: This close-up shot of a Victoria crowned pigeon showcases its striking blue plumage and red chest. Its crest is made of delicate, lacy feathers, while its eye is a striking red color. The bird’s head is tilted slightly to the side, giving the impression of it looking regal and majestic. The background is blurred, drawing attention to the bird’s striking appearance.

Cold edit.

Interesting seeing the takes on here regarding @hazardeden10 so here’s mine! He was the best player in the Premier League for 4 years. Won PFA young player, PFA player & FWP of the year awards. He won every trophy at Chelsea except the CL. He was in my eyes the best performer at the 2018 World cup when Belgium finished third. An all time @premierleague great no doubt & would be in a lot of all time 11’s! In the past that alone would be enough to be lauded unquestionably but in this day & age people are still not happy with that, as he didn’t win a World Cup or do the business at Madrid 🤷‍♂️

Inflation is usually explained as the increase of prices (which is correct). Below is how inflation in SA has diminished your purchasing power. R5000 in January 2008 can only buy R2357 worth of goods today. Over the last 14 yrs the value of your money has more than halved.

Three good news SA stories in this mini thread below. All coming out the last 24 hours.

Reuters: The African Development Bank (AfDB) is committing $2.8 billion over the next five years to support private sector investment in South Africa. The support will target agriculture, renewable energy, transport, youth employment, health and vaccine manufacturing.

200 years of asset class returns, adjusted for inflation. Lessons: #1: don’t hold cash. #2: real rates go down over time, which benefit all assets. #3: stocks also produce cash flows, nice! #4: gold works mostly as an inflation-adjusted monetary policy reset hedge.

Not my area at all, but interesting SCA judgment today dealing with the great Polo versus Polo Ralph Lauren rift in South Africa (fun fact: Ralph Lauren's Polo horse faces left, South Africa's Polo horse faces right)...
