Others have said it before, but if 'AI' was any good, they'd be charging us for it and we'd be happy to pay. Shoehorning it into every single aspect of people's lives just reeks of desperation.

The "liver, fava beans and a nice chianti" line in Silence Of The Lambs is a little joke for psychiatrists in the audience - those foods cannot be consumed with the meds (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) that Lecter is supposed to be taking.

The Lutnicks, like the Trumps, are cashing in by mingling Washington access and power with their family businesses and wallets. Flagrant financial conflicts and self-dealing that would have drawn a firestorm of criticism and censure in pre-Trump Washington.
