Who remembers the Logitech feel mouse from early 2000’s? I had one and the haptic feedback was way ahead of its time. Buttons had different feedback. Drag and drop offered textures that felt like you were dragging something. It was highly configurable. Then suddenly dropped off the product line up.

I vibe-text my replies sometimes and let autocorrect choice my words for me. It can makes for some interest conversions. Sometimes it makes no senses at all. Other times autocowreck makes up storied that you can almost read, if you imagine your grandma typing the message.

When an AI futurist says something like” what would you do if you didn’t have to work?” it sounds like nails scraping down the chalkboard to me. I don’t think the companies controlling AI are interested in equal distribution of wealth so that WE don’t have to work.

Say what? The Ray-Ban Meta demo failed because it activated every pair of glasses in the building to run Live AI?
I don’t want to hear that from Meta.
Definitely sounds like that could be misused.

After seeing Eminem weigh in on free speech, this lyric felt right for @jimmykimmel.com

It’s hypocrisy fuelled by money
Now it feels empty without Jimmy

I have become so accustomed to using New Outlook that whn I run Copilot training for Outlook Classic, I forget where Copilot features are. Or that they aren’t in Classic.
Software is changing all the time. If someone like me who is conditioned to changing, can’t keep up, how does everyone else cope?

OK. Remarkable Paper Pro Move ordered.
Let’s see if I fall in love with this handwritten note taking device.
I am looking forward to distraction-free writing on a screen. To get that on an iPad I have to switch Focus Mode on and also write perfectly with the apps and tools.

Sometimes I use AI to help make things.
But when I do, I change it past the point where it doesn’t read or look AIe.
