To unlock #AI’s full potential, the construction industry must focus on collaboration, training, ethical frameworks, cybersecurity, and sustainable innovation. #AI can revolutionize the sector, but only if we address these risks responsibly. What’s your take on AI in construction? Let’s chat! 3/3

Having been a school governor for 17 years @samerb.bsky.social he has learned a lot. Schools have supported children. there is a strong link between absence and attainment. Long journeys impact on absence. Families can choose school outside catchment. Dual school areas do not provide choice

It's unacceptable how some still call Georgia a "former Soviet state." By that logic, should we also refer to the United States as a "former British colony"? Georgia is one of the oldest countries in the world, with a history and identity that far transcend its time under Soviet rule.
