Oh none of this is fun reading. But important to understand what’s going on and how we are being screwed by ghosts of governments past 😳 #auspol

ChatGPT ban in Australia’s public schools likely to be overturned. “This is the sort of thing that students are going to need to learn how to use properly. You can’t just put it away and assume that students won’t use it.”
I like that Jason Clare. #auspol theguardian.com/technology/2…

Hey @NetballAust it is super disappointing that the games on @kayosports for the Team girls cup are virtually inaccessible due to the ongoing technical issues of the Kayo platform (which are unresolved after contacting them for support).

With a much smaller population, it’s a mathematical tru-ism that independent schools have had a higher percentage growth, but to focus on that particular tidbit seems peculiar (at best) to me.
