AI bots were developed because some rich, lazy a-hole wanted normal people to be able to feel like rich, lazy a-holes, because at the end of the day, if we could choose to be rich, lazy a-holes, most of us would.
And that's why AI exists.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

This is why AI bots have always confounded me. I don't NEED a bot to write an email for me. I do it quite well myself. But some people don't have that skill, and that's why AI bots were developed.
I don't know why it took me this long to realize it.
So, I'm watching the scene in a TV show where this guy is talking to his assistant, asking her to send a gift with a card. "Something affectionate," he says. "No, something polite" and it hit me.
Writing is not hard - arguably it's easier for me, a writer, than some, but it's not hard.
Who wants to tell him?

I'm going to start carrying a flask with me to all of my press events (in person and virtual) so I can take a shot every time someone one stage says "work...AND play." I figure my liver will give out around mid-March.
suspected killer: here's a manifesto where i explain my motives. health insurance companies' modus operandi mutilates and kills people
media: the killer was radicalised through assassin sim among us and a firaxis internship where he was trained to kill 'bugs'
You know they weren't always dead, right?
It’s that special time of year when you get to see freshly cut Christmas trees tied to the top of EVs and can’t help but wonder where the compromise came in.
I'm so happy. I just scheduled a post to go live of 12/13 at 14:15!
I used to be one of those “chat with the ride share driver” guys but I have very much grown out of that.
I have had a FedEx package attempt to be delivered 3 times with nary a FedEx truck showing up. That's usually FedEx code for "We lost your package" but I need to wait another week to be sure.
Ohhh Adam, you silly boy. What are you up to now?
PSA: If you're looking for a movie to watch and flipping through all the streaming services, don't forget about YouTube. It has a ton of really good movies available for free. My latest pick, 12 Monkeys

I can't edit my first post. I had to separate them, but apparently Bluesky didn't care that I removed the second link 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Then there's this post by @danackerman.bsky.social where he created a digital clone of himself (and interviews himself) that's really, really good - www.microcenter.com/site/mc-news...
The hardest part to grasp about AI is the absolute disparity between the highs and lows. First, there's this post from @joannastern.bsky.social where Gemini just flat out makes things up: bsky.app/profile/joan...
I’m seeing that even before i put in the code, which is why i was super tempted
Seriously, I had to google it :) Didn't work tho.
Where do you put a code like that in Amazon?
My first appointment of CES is booked and I don't even have to leave my hotel. This is going to be a good year...
The longer you read Def Leppard lyrics, the less they sound like love ballads and more like stalker manifestos.

My dude, you are so good, but seriously, put down the camera and go pet that puppy!
Yep, that tracks.
You're a great writer, once I figure out how to translate all the British to American stuff, that is.
As a writer, I'm constantly amazed that my job is to write things down and people actually pay me to do it.
As an editor, I see how some other people write and yeah, ok that makes sense now...

Oh God, what a terrible photo, but a fun podcast! Tune in!
OK CES pitches. Starting early this year, are you? I see you.
