Which is it, Jensen? Paradigm shift, tech miracle, new era, going to change everything and everyone, save humanity and the earth? Or is it “nothing new,” “just software like we’ve been making fifty years,” nothing to see here, folks….? Which is it? Bag of shite!

Did Apple just auto-magically opt-in everyone to their AI b.s.? Has the world gone f-ing nuts? HTF do I turn this crap off?!?!

The influence on #Tekkon is very real. Screenwriter Anthony Weintraub was in Tokyo for Tekkonkinkreet meetings with me and Taiyo when the towers fell…

It's very interesting that @gkids.com chose Black (クロ), White (シロ), and Snake (ヘビ) for this info page thingy. gkids.com/films/tekkon... www.amazon.com/Tekkonkinkre... Seems like it will be on demand at Apple and Amazon too. Someone tell me the status...😬
