More stuff on detecting AI written text vs human written text.
First is from OpenAI, who are probably geniuses. They create a problem and then show up with the solution. Both available for a fee. Like the old Indian snake charmers, first they let the cobras out into the village, then they come by offering to catch any cobras that just might happen to be loose in the village.

A truly delightful thread!
We have one client which we manage an Azure tenant for. They require, and have specified, a zero-tolerance for device non-compliance.
In roughly two hours, 1647 devices are about to be locked out of access to organisation resources, wiped, and removed from Intune permanently.
4 meetings, 124 emails, and two phone calls a day for the last 14 days have warned them of this.
We’ve been *very* clear about what is about to happen for the last 13 months. Their internal management have *acknowledged* what is about to happen. But still, time marches on.
Death by middle-management.

so we're at the stage where we can trap self-driving cars in salt circles and we're detecting inhuman infiltrators by counting the fingers on their hands I think it's time we stop being judgemental about historical people being superstitious
