Introducing Gurpo
A drawing of a small blobby figure inside of an enclosure with string coming off it, with text saying "introducing Gurpo, the new wearable personal assistant. Gurpo is not a computer program, he's a real tiny guy who is trapped inside your medallion necklace. 
Gurpo hates you, but is incapable of doing anything about it, and he has to answer your questions or he gets electrocuted. It's non-lethal.
If you shake his enclosure hard enough, gurpo will throw up!"

Every chatbot prompt box says "check answers for accuracy." But increasingly, "humans in the loop" refuse to do that. Instead, they become complicit in the AI industry's project of destroying the provenance of information. But you are person, and it is an app. It can't take responsibility for you.

I drew a comic strip.
a comic strip. The first panel shows a goblin in a long coat approaching a guard. The second panel has the goblin saying "we're just normal men!". The third panel has the guard replying "what do you mean normal men?". The fourth panel shows both the goblin in the coat and the guard. The coat is beginning to open to show many goblins within. The guard looks suspicious and a goblin emerging from the coat is saying "We're just innocent men!"

Shameful: People implying using a machine makes you an artist. (Playboy, November 1978)
"She can't draw. I can't paint.
But no one can say we're not creative.
"We found there's no need to be able to paint or draw in order to make use of a lively imagination. That urge to be creative can be satisfied in any number of ways. But the one we find most exciting is photography.
"What we needed was a good camera. We spoke
to a couple of our friends who knew about cameras. They suggested we buy a Nikon. We thought they were kidding... after all, we were only beginners. So, we went to a camera store and spoke to the dealer. He showed us the new Nikon FM. It turned out to be a real eye-opener ...compact, lightweight, and easy to operate. And, while it didn't cost nearly as much as the professional Nikon F2, it offered that same Nikon quality. When we held it in our hands, we both felt as if it were made just for us! The other cameras we looked at just couldn't compare. Another thing we liked-there is a motor drive and nearly
60 Nikkor lenses available for the FM. So, as we get more involved in photography. we can try just about anything!
"Now we're having the time of our lives with our new Nikon FM. The pictures are sharp, the colors vivid, and the opportunity for expression and creativity unlimited."
For details on the Nikon FM, check the Nellow Pages for the Nikon dealer nearest you. Ask him also ahour the traveling Nikon School. Ot write to Nikon Inc.. Dept. N-37P, Garden Cary. NY 11530. Subsidiar of Ehrenich Photo Optical Industries. Inc. NE (In Canada Angloplote Lad.. PO.)

"when one party turns antidemocratic and illiberal, incivility and conflict are inevitable—but they are symptoms, not the root problem. Misdiagnosing them as the central issue leads to viewing civility and compromise as remedies, thereby risking the legitimation of authoritarian actors."

The job of management boils down to deciding where to invest company resources to maximize returns. But managers don't want to do their jobs. So instead they started agitating for "velocity" in a foolish belief that they would never have to prioritize one idea over another ever again.

No amount of velocity can shield your team from opportunity cost
