I just found a work case use for AI and I hate it.
But the amount of prompts it needed to get to my results proves how complicated it would have been to do myself. It was over 17k+ items I had to manually handle.
I’ll still be over here hating AI (and excel, and fuzzy logic, and , and, and…)

I sat on the floor and successfully got up with no difficulty. A thing I haven’t been able to do in 5ish months.
I also found my missing earrings and located my lost pants.
It’s a red letter day around here. Also it’s the little joys that keep me going.

I curse a delivery driver who opts to put my package in front of the garage and not at the front door. This is the second one I’ve run over not knowing it was there.
Thankfully it was just a dent. The last one was a wash. Sorry furnace filters!

In a virtual conference where the in person attendees are encouraged to “talk amongst themselves” and the amount of noise in the stream is infuriating.
I’m already irritated in the keynote so this does not bode well for the entire conference.

While walking the dog yesterday, I had a tree branch hit me in the face. Almost impossibly, it missed my glasses and hit me in my eyeball. My eye has been irritated since.
