oh and uhh, we should stop calling it Ai. It's not artificial - nor intelligent. It's regurgitating what it thinks it wants you to hear based on language models. It's advanced predictive text lmfao

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

I just want to apologize to Ryan Lizza. It’s true I did send erotic texts to his wife Olivia Nuzzi, but it was an accident. They were intended for my longtime fwb, the late Ruth Buzzi. Siri is a flawed product.

Last week my "cyclist" co-worker told me he "still isn't OK with e-bikes" before launching into a tirade about a guy he clocked going 38 mph on a Lime e-scooter.
Today he told me how scared everyone he knows is of riding in certain areas because "homeless people." 🤔

2. This helps explain why so many people were focused on "back to the office" starting in 🧵
