Such is the complexity of natural human language, it took the loveable eco-friendly but rusty droid character WALL-E more than 700 years on this planet to develop intelligible human language. That’s because there’s unstructured data to contend with as well as formal rules that have too many exceptions (I’m looking at you I before E expect before C). Ripe with nuances, real-world context, and sometimes unfortunate double meanings, natural human language has been near impossible for computers to understand and mimic in a way that truly makes sense.

As the end of the financial year draws closer, if you have unspent budget for 2022/23, it makes sense to take advantage of it while you still can. As it’s time to use it or lose it, a smart way to spend down those remaining dollars productively is to fuel next year’s activities upfront.

If you were around in 2002 to see Steven Spielberg’s Minority Report when it was released at the cinema, you were probably really impressed with and more than a little jealous of the technology Tom Cruise’s character uses.
