Okay, I will slightly venture there. If you have a dataset, it used to be the case that you needed to hire people to interpret that data. Now you don't need to. You can prompt an AI to do the work. AI programs such as Perplexity - for research, Chat GPT - for realtime image recognition, and Claude - for creating bespoke AI agents, means that things are rapidly changing. With a bit of thought you could have an architectural company on your telephone. No staff, no offices, just tech doing whatever you tell it to.

I won't go into detail here, but the implications and adoption of AI in the world of civil engineering are mind boggling.

I shouted at a traffic warden who gave me a ticket next to the hospital, yesterday. I reckon his surname was "20 goto 10". AI is a seemingly a useful tool. I was a little on the fence as I had thought it mostly useful for admin based jobs. Caught up with some old friends over the weekend and one of them is now making a living advising construction/architectural sector on AI.

Grow up.

Having worked with trees for the best part of 20 years, I think I'm good. Thanks for the concern.

Two cheeks of the same arse.

Not at all. If anything you have grassed yourself up by spewing the bile you do. I'm not a grass, and I take it as an insult. I'm reasonably confident that you and I would have polite discourse in real life, but your online persona suggests otherwise. You are pulling the wool over the eyes of nobody. And you're making a mug of yourself by doing so.

Meetings with remarkable trees, the Arbtalk version
Mark J replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Picture Forum
I have a friend with a forest in Wales and she's been planting coastal redwoods. The idea is to coppice them. -
Your are transparent in your hatred. It is plain to see, and squirming around with half-truths just makes you look like a dick. I wouldn't want to meet you in real life, a 6'6" unit of snidey anger, with guns. But, I stand by what I said. I think you know exactly what you are doing.

Nice tree, where's that? -

Lime tree in the local park. I can only assume it's fasciation on steroids. Clipper lighter for scale.

Yup, it's a bit disconcerting.

Ha ha, Dave, you have shown your true colours on here. You can't expect to be able to claim that you have no agenda.You stir the racial pot at any given opportunity. That is no coincidence. That's a coward's way to do business.

"In the UK, an estimated five to six people per year are killed by tree-related injuries from falling trees or branches. This results in an estimated total of approximately 100 to 120 deaths from the general public over the last 20 years. " So, by your logic, terrorists are no more of a threat to us than trees are. Perhaps you're overreacting.

Ha ha. No, that's clearly not what I mean.

Indeed. Christian Nationalism is one to watch. Have you heard of "The King's Army"? Trump was, after all, saved by God: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/20/president-trump-speech-inauguration Lambs to the slaughter... The King's Army | Training Soldiers with the Weapon of the Gospel THEKINGSARMY.COM We believe the day we surrendered our lives to Christ, pledging allegiance to the King, was the day we were enlisted to fight in His army.

I'm glad that nobody showed their cards by jumping to the conclusion that it was a preventable, terror-related, attack. It does show that we probably need more funding in the NHS to treat people with mental disorders.

Jog on, mug.

I disagree. You don't seem to even know what your point is. We both agree that you can't tell who might get stabby by the colour of their skin. When that car mounted the pavement on London Bridge - or whichever bridge it was, were the people who survived the ones with their eyes open, walking towards oncoming traffic, or were they the people with their eyes glued to the screen of their phones?

When you are driving a car do you look around before navigating a roundabout? If so, welcome to what I am talking about. You can't tell a wrongun by the colour of their skin, I have never and would never suggest that. You can anticipate a kick off if you have your wits about you. Unless it's the IRA and bombs, then it matters not how vigilant you are. If you know any women, ask them how they view the world when they are out and about. I guarantee you that they are vigilant, as the problem is violent men of any colour.

Keep your eyes open and expect the unexpected. I don't understand why you would find this a strange concept. Perhaps you live in a rural environment, I don't know. But if you move around the inner-city, you will be preyed upon if you're not aware of what's going on. I'm way more more wary of white kids in balaclavas on e-bikes, than I am of wandering throught the Asian community in the West End.

Agreed, but it is imperative to include white nationalism in the mix too.
