Why you still need information architecture/information systems specialization in the time of AI

Screenshot of Ticketmaster suggesting that because I like Rammstein, I should look into Eagles, Billy Joel, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Def Leppard, and Elton John. I would rather self-delete.

I live in an area that frequently has unhoused encampments and RVs, and in a sweep earlier this week, LAPD nearly ran over dogs belonging to a woman who’s had a tent in here for several years. Every sweep causes a lot of trauma for these people who are quietly living beside us.

I'm not sure about this survey design.

Two questions from an employment survey about whether I've ever been convicted of a felony or if I was referred to the employer by a rehab agency.

Response options are: Forks, No, or Not Sure

that's right. Forks. I can't explain it either. I'm not even sure how you'd get it that wrong.

Knitting colorwork chart of a Ric Flair tweet from 1:43PM on 5/5/24 From Earth with 1.2M views. It reads:

I Spent $1500 At @PiesanosSFP To Be
Disrespected More Than I Ever Have In My
Entire Life. After Taking 20 Pictures With
Customers And Staff, I Was Asked To Leave
Because Of An Issue I Had With The Kitchen
Manager Taking Too Long In The Bathroom. I
Would Highly Recommend That Anyone Who
Wants To Enjoy A Relaxing Time In
Gainesville At A Nice Restaurant To Never
Visit This Place! WOOOOO!

I have maintained the capitalization, punctuation, grammar and line breaks of the original tweet.
