Was using Chat GPT this morning and I told it the use of emojis made me smile. It took at to AI heart and every response after was a bouquet of emoji goodness. I hate AI, but I'll admit that interaction did made me 😁.

Today I asked Google’s Gemini a ton of questions about yarn for commercial knitting. It was amazingly helpful. Next I “tried” to search the WordPress repository for Woo plugins and had to load a Chrome intention to block all the gifs so I could read. We are living in an upside down world right now.

Fun fact: My store is receiving sales from a lot more non-Google sources than it ever has in the past. DuckDuckGo, Bing, Yahoo, Reddit, Facebook, etc. are driving as many sales collectively as Google. Part of me feels like the 20+ years I've spent learning Google is wasted, part wants to celebrate.
