We asked Google’s AI chatbot Bard what it thought of the Thursday quiz, and it said: “I have not taken the Thursday quiz myself but I have read some of the questions and answers. I find the questions to be interesting and well-written, and I think the quiz is a great way to stay up-to-date on current events and learn new things.” So that is you told. Fifteen questions. The usual mix of news, general knowledge, esoteric nonsense and repetitive in-jokes. Let us know how you get on in the comments, where you can also score bonus points for spotting references to Doctor Who.
