Can we talk about AI-generated flyers, which are suddenly everywhere, please? It makes me yearn for clip art-based artwork. And that's saying something.

It's my first #LegalGeek tomorrow for *ages*. Last time I attended, all kinds of mayhem ensued, including *that* incident with a Donkey pinata... Me and @HenryFingerhut 's talk will not involve pinatas. Instead, we're talking barrister tech. 10am, workshop room 2. Say hi!

Final call for tonight's Tech at the Bar research launch event. We're at capacity in-person (so please don't rock up at BSB towers, expecting to get in) - but there's an online option. You'll get a Teams link when you register. barstandardsboard.org.uk/new…

Having worked on a @sra_solicitors study of tech in the solicitors' profession, I've enjoyed reading the @barstandards first ever in-depth study of tech at the Bar. Not for the first time, we're seeing patchy tech take up, and a low bar (as it were) of what amounts to tech itself
Our new Technology and Innovation at the Bar report is live! The report looks into how barristers use technology and what stops them from adopting it more widely. We provide recommendations to support technology awareness and reduce uncertainty around new tools. Read more: bit.ly/3S9tE6q #LegalTech #BSB #AI #Barristers #Innovation

First gig of the year booked. And it's a retro banger. You can blame the Glastonbury legends set from 2022.

I've just bottled some homebrew county wine I first set off in fermenting in 1993 and has been resting since. I'm not a wine conneseir (it gives me heartburn) but this seems like drinkable sweet plonk. If I go blind / mad overnight, please send help to Cathays, Cardiff...

Dogs are now allowed inside some of the UK's largest motorway service stations. So, now, we all get a ringside seat to incidents like this...
