The company on the side of the floor is constantly moving boxes & furniture from one part of the office to another. I am not sure what they besides move office furniture.

Another reason I think Ai won’t be around too much longer is that there’s no humanity in it. It’s probably one of the furthest things from it.

Do you think Tony the Tiger was in a zoo repeating the phrase ”They’re Great!” Annoying visitors and fellow animals. Then a representative from Kellogg was amazed beyond belief and freed him. Once he was free they made sign a contract to a never ending breakfast cereal campaign?

Here’s the documentary I mentioned this morning.
If you want to celebrate the life of Rob Reiner tonight and you haven't seen it, the documentary about his best friend, ALBERT BROOKS: DEFENDING MY LIFE, is as much about Brooks as it is Reiner's love for his lifelong best friend. As fall down hilarious as it is sweet & touching. It's a must see.

Man. Not really liking these companies pushing Ai all the time for everything. Same thing happens when companies got involved on FB. Wouldn’t life be grand if everything wasn’t monetized?

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Another cool thing to watch is Defending My Life. The documentary about Albert Brooks. He and Rob Reiner were close friends. In fact it’s Rob’s doc about his best friend.
