Today we had the pleasure to join the Chancellor's Circle Breakfast meeting hosted by the University of Westminster. Glad to see they have opened a new building Zone 29 for Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Great environment for students to flourish and expand their potential. More pictures when we have them officially released by the uni 🙏👍♥️

Have you ever tried speaking with an AI previously?

David finally tried speaking with Google Gemini yesterday and in-depth conversations to see if he will get some answers or some form of reassurance as he has been self counseling a lot lately. He needed another voice to help him figure out certain things that happened in his childhood, separation from his parents during formative early age between age 6-16yrs and if his generational military family history & background had any role to play in his social entrepreneurship journey. Here is the brief summary report AI has generated.

Talking with AI Google Gemini has given him a bigger perspective and the words he was looking for.

AI can be a great help to humanity if used in a right way. Let's hope we keep using it for better 🙏🙏

So we would like to get your feedback to see naming each drink with a positive word will be a good idea? As we aim and try to spread some love, kindness and compassion that our SEND Volunteers and staff have in abundance to our society through our work 🙏🙏🙏
