If you’ve been following our blog posts (hopefully you have been or I may be out of the job soon!), you may remember me talking about those pesky trouble makers we all call Millennials when discussing how gamification can engage staff. Truth be told (and just between you and me), I actually like millennials.

Has anyone ever seen the movie Short Circuit? It was made in 1986 and I remember seeing it as a young kid. Long story short, there was a robot in that movie called ‘Number 5’, and that quirky little bloke seems to enter the front of my mind whenever I hear the words Artificial Intelligence. Weasel and The Russian are both Star Wars fans, so it’s no surprise that thoughts of C-3PO and R2-D2 enter their minds. But I’m not a Star Wars fan. A Princess Leia fan maybe, but let’s be honest, who isn’t? (sorry to our female audience but facts are facts).

455 Million! Now that’s a big number, huge in fact. But what does it represent? I suppose I could go down the ‘metaphorical road’ and tell you all it represents ‘opportunity’ or ‘missed opportunity’ for that matter. In fact, that would actually fit the purpose of this article quite nicely. But that’s not really my thing. I’ll leave that to The Russian and The Weasel, both self-anointed art critics who enjoy theorising about the use of abstract imagery in modern day surrealism (p.s. before the art lovers out there prepare a dossier on everything factually incorrect with that statement, no need, my art knowledge is about as sophisticated as Homer Simpson, so I simply googled ‘art terms’ and put them into one jumbled sentence!).
