Agreed. There's so much FUD right now it's crazy. It is worse than the actual technology/topic at hand, in many cases.

Is there a "I have to use AI to fight AI because of my job" list?

I usually prefer watching women’s tennis over men’s, but that Tiafoe match was something to behold. JFC

That doesn’t sound like gen AI, it sounds more like agentic AI to streamline their processes.

New album. A few tracks are good but a little too much sparsity overall.

I'm in a field (cyber security) where I must learn and use AI to fight AI. From this perspective, the "it's not going away so get used to it" arguments hold a lot of truth. At the same time, I side with the anti-AI-slop brigade when it comes to things like Spotify, advertisements, memes, etc.

I just kept running through the pain. Then, four knee surgeries later, I quit running and took up tennis. Much better!

Skyline Co-op
SimTower rebuilt around democratic socialism. Manage the money, create the jobs, house the people — and answer to an assembly that can vote you out.

Got the new The Strokes album in the mail today. Sadly disappointed due to the auto-tune on most of the tracks. Do they think people like that? #vinyl #vinylcollectors #nowspinning #nowplaying #thestrokes

They ruined a perfectly good record with autotune. WTF. So disappointed.

Right, the whole “kill switch” thing was confusing me. I was picturing Dell laptops shutting off all at once, planes falling from the sky, etc. Hyperbole strikes again.

"Well, she's walking through the clowns" makes way more sense, given the next line is "with a circus mind, that's running round" It rhymes better and fits the context better. It also completely upends my reality. #LittleWing #JimiHendrix #misheardlyrics

As I recall, we started calling them red states and blue states because of the way they would appear on the political maps on election nights on CNN other news shows.

3rd best Hendrix album (in my opinion), but his first in release order. He was trying to find his sound, so it's quite varied in style, this has a lot of choice songs on it. #nowspinning #vinylcollectors #vinylcommunity #waxspinner
