Great illustration on the AUKUS affair. But maybe the elephant could be a little whiter ...

I couldn’t agree more. But you try telling an AI “Make that elephant a little whiter”. You’re just as likely to get an elephant with a white hat on it. They’re great at the first go, but getting them to change is hard. But glad you got the idea :)

I meant to add that I have bought the Quarterly essay for the High White essay - read a fifth of it - and found myself on a number of points in quite strong disagreement - and I feel as if defrauded. I will continue with my reading because who knows - there might yet be part of it which might redeem his thinking - to my mind at least!

For the piece on Ardern, the day labour rate for traffic fines - and the Leunig pieces plus the art of Dunera Lad Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack - thank-you!
