In this, our second Summer edition of the Accent Magazine, we take a look at what some of the team have been up to outside of the (home) office, we say hello to Faith – the latest member of our .NET team, and we put the spotlight on two projects that have kept us busy over the past few months. In keeping with the summer vibe, I also share my limited experience of becoming a digital nomad.

The main focus of this edition is however artificial intelligence. Accent has been at the forefront of using the latest technology in creative design, web design, and software development for over 30 years. We have embraced new technologies, from floppy disks and laser printers, photo manipulation and 3D modelling, through ‘The Internet’, to API and mobile app development. That’s not to mention the plethora of programming languages en route. For Accent, artificial intelligence is the next (big) thing in a long line of technology to embrace. As you might expect, we take a look at the potential impact of AI in software development – both as a tool to aid development, and to add intelligence into our solutions. But Dave also talks about his work to date on using AI in the creation of original art, and Stuart even gets ChatGPT to interview Charles Darwin on the subject of AI!
