The Royal Photographic Society, based in Bristol, is just one of the many organisations around the world that is trying to set guidelines and rules around the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). But there’s still a long way to go for everyone. Will we ever need guidance in relation to AI in the crown green bowling world? Rest assured, our Club photos are not AI generated, so what you see is what we’ve got!
The Craft Group is still beavering away in the Clubhouse (have they ever left?). No-one is hidden this time apart from Shan who took the photo.
take pART returns to Venue Cymru for 13th & 14th January 2024. A range of arts, literature and science events and workshops. If you’re a fan of the BBC TV Series “Casualty”, then one of these events is definitely for you. (Plus that one is FREE. What more could you ask for?). The Casualty event is a demonstration of “Special Effects and Prosthetics”. So you can see how they can turn an actor into a very damaged and/or poorly person.

Here it is – it’s Newsletter 61. It might seem like a long time since the last one but it was only 2-months ago. Although you might think that not much happens at a crown green bowling club during the winter, you’d be wrong, as Dave H proves in his latest newsletter for the Club. The usual warnings around Dave H’s humour apply.

As mentioned here earlier in the week, the ITV drama about the sub-postmasters versus the Post Office, that was followed by a documentary about the issue, has clarified for all how this has been construed as ““one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in British history“.
