In hot weather like this, remember to keep an eye on your freelancers. Move them to a shaded spot, indoors if possible, away from β€˜people’. Distract them with a computer or some unrealistic deadline. Do check on them, by email, but don’t forget to set yours to out of office in case they reply πŸ™

WHY is generative AI still so rubbish at text/captioning in images?
