[1 of 10 - AI for the Policy Guy?] Spent yesterday applying @OpenAI's ChatGPT to bits of my previous policy work in the charity sector, Government, and Parliament. Output highlighted blue. Thread with (impressive looking) examples and initial thoughts. openai.com/blog/chatgpt/

People often mock Fife (Kingdom of) but I ask you, where else could you buy Thunderpants on DVD for £1 from a wool shop on a deer farm so close to Christmas? #Fife4Life

Pleasure to speak at this event and to fly the policy flag! Superb initiative by the @BiochemSoc. Struck by attendees' engagement, insightful questions, and ability to look up from their Western blots (also learned a lot from the other speakers!)

Last week we successfully hosted our Careers Beyond Academia: Roundtable event for early career researchers. Representatives from various scientific sectors shared their inspiring non-academic career journeys and experiences. Attendees made connections helpful to their careers.

There has been lots of discussion about resignation honours lately. But what exactly are the different routes into the House of Lords? Check out our graphic below and read our explainer to find out more about joining and leaving the House of Lords instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/join…

@Oliver_BM_ Nice piece, well set out. Did a similar (but lazier!) bit of exploration a few weeks ago, applying ChatGPT to real-world Government / Parliamentary work: twitter.com/Ross_Coron/sta… Agree with your final point re. public affairs adoption due to incentivisation.

@travelling_wolf @LordNortonLouth ...I have never been tempted to purchase Twitter Blue (with its edit functionality)... until this moment! Let's pretend I'm talking about a far more exclusive *1912* Committee!

@16Sunsets @Kevin_Fong Looking forward to this. Massive fan of 13 Minutes (recommended it to several non-Brits during a recent tour of @NASA_Johnson!) - the narration, sound design, et al. Have come to love the Shuttle in recent years. Seeing it in person - in all its bricky glory - certainly helped!

The worst thing about Elon Musk taking over twitter is half of what I see is people discussing twitter. It’s becoming as self referential as the BBC.

I hear Dixie and Cranky are in the Mario movie. Seeing as I made the first versions of these back in the mid 90's I'm claiming this as my characters in a mainstream movie and you can't stop me

I made a thing! 💻 'Parlio' provides the real-time status of Parliament and allows users to search, view, bookmark, and set PQ alerts. Submitted as my @CS50 final project; written in Python, JavaScript, etc; utilises @ParliDigital / @UKParliament's API. youtu.be/p1dJaElP5GQ

@carolvorders Neutral on this - feels multi-factorial. Approach however not very robust.. Lists of MPs’ handles exist. Perhaps better to feed into a simple script, strip bio text, then search for mentions (and absences) of political affiliation. Could compare with other parties.

I WANT YOUR HELP I've noticed a number of Tory MP & councillors removing mention of them being Tories from their social media profiles. I'd like to collate them and do some statistical work on this (you know I like numbers!) CAN YOU SCREENSHOT ANY YOU FIND AND POST HERE? 🙏🏼
