Just loafing around with a brand new Panasonic UK breadmaker... let the carb diet begin! 😅😋

My first time hijacking the central message of a Hallmark card... my inner linguist couldn’t resist. Thank you Boris Johnson for the best birthday gift we could have asked for! I will be celebrating at The Hare & Hounds.

Meeting the CEO & founder of Kumospace in my Gather 🍇 speakeasy was the highlight of my week. <3 both platforms, but am now leaning more toward team Kumo! Brett Martin you are a legend. Until the next Chapter in Kumospace (or Whereby)!

The The Oxford Character Project Project transformed the way I think about leadership & communication. I've been reflecting deeply on vocation throughout lockdown, and had a breakthrough moment last week. I will share more on 8 May. bit.ly/purposeandvoca…

Got this in the post from Office for National Statistics (ONS). 👍: Harry Potter-esque hook; the fact that it’s a survey about a census. 👎: In person?! Only an ID badge for reassurance?! No live chat contact option?! Does the Office for National Statistics (ONS) not know we’re under lockdown???!

In 2019 I wrote a piece for WIRED UK about personalisation going too far. Yes, it was wishful thinking. But my prediction is finally coming true, a year later: bbc.co.uk/news/technolog… Especially where content is concerned, customisation will rise.

I went walking in a bluebell wonderland over the weekend: youtu.be/vIe2AAonR5Y 😍 Thank you National Trust!

I have been heels-over-head Obsessed with red hair since I was born. Red-haired heroines deeply resonate with me: Ariel, Pippi Longstocking, Anne of Green Gables, Princess Merida... And now, thanks to #WellaMagma & Emma from Define Hair & Beauty, my childhood wish has come true! 🥰

I have never before written a social media post about a #newjob... never mind an entire article. But this is Quite a Story, and like all good stories, it begs to be told. Goodbye, #fintech. Hello, #regtech. CUBE Ben Richmond RinghamHunter linkedin.com/pulse/my-journ…

I learned *so* much about communication from @JulesSciAni, Bertie, & Margot earlier this month. Talking to 👨 is one level. Talking to 🐴 is more next level than the most mature Pokémon. #horsingaround #cotswolds #communicationscience

Hiring for one of the most in-demand skillsets (data science/ML/NLP engineering) is the perfect use case for #communicationscience. Because recruitment is broken. Disempowering, disengaging. Square pegs, round holes. This is part 1 of my solution: tinyurl.com/JoinRegBrain

I'm excited to be delivering a keynote at Regtech Webinar Africa tomorrow: fintechsummit.co.za/regtech-webinar I'll be painting the landscape of AI in regtech today, with a glimpse of tomorrow (so both Impressionism & Cubism will be involved). Oh, and I've made a song for the occasion.

It's been just over a year since one of the most resonant conversations I've ever had with someone I'd never met: youtu.be/YBygUSggByU And it was not only recorded, but also transcribed & summarised by the inimitable Alistair Croll. Jamie Joyce ⚡, I'm glad we're still in touch!

I am deeply honoured to be representing CUBE in 2 keynotes at #GRTS21—the opening panel will be the perfect springboard into my talk on #AI in regtech. This is also my 1st in-person conference since the arrival of COVID!😮🙊 fintech.global/globalregtechs… FINTECH GLOBAL

I lived in Oxford for 7 years and never knew about OUWG @ Boundary Brook Nature Reserve despite walking past it about 598,324 times. From abandoned allotment to ecological haven... what a hidden gem! I've never before been so up close & personal with a comma butterfly. 😍

Just in time for #tbt, the recording of my opening address at #GRTS is now on CUBE's website: cube.global/resource/ai-in… This was at once my vision statement for #AI & #NLP in regtech & a literal definition of 'keynote'... as I begin & end with a Police-inspired song. 🎶😁

Have achieved a culinary & cultural milestone… my first homemade jam, featuring gooseberries from the loveliest Cotswold village (Chipping Campden). Definitely more science than art! Next up: 🍅 chutney.

Thrilled to be back in Riyadh to deliver the opening keynote at Saudi Arabia's first-ever #regtechsymposium, on the what, why, & how of regtech: citc.gov.sa/en/mediacenter… Amazingly, it is already a RegInsight on CUBE! 🙏 @CITC_SA for this magnificent opportunity.
