I thought the first book was pretty meh with big ideas but mid execution, but holy hell was the sequel exciting and leagues ahead in terms of quality. Really delivers on what the first novel sets up.
Amazing show. Paved the way for the better parts of Game of Thrones.
I was actually thinking just this morning that if there's ONE area where AI could really make a difference, it's in predictive text on keyboards. How many times do I have to type "Roman Empire," say, before the keyboard suggests "Empire" the next time I type "Roman"? The keyboard doesn't even recommend my own last name when I type my first name.
Except reading the article, this is anything BUT that. It's some AI-generated art stuff so you can create custom stickers or some useless shit like that.
Still chasing the dream of mainstream Clippy acceptance.
The Far Side is remembered as a classic because when it's funny, it's really funny; but it was mostly confusing and incomprehensible 85% of the time.
Seriously. The world would be a better place if the media stopped reporting on every random shit idea that crosses Musk's addled brain. It's the kind of lazy journalism that got Trump elected.
So. I guess "operation" is what we're calling war these days? Disappointing to see even the BBC fall in line with the newspeak.
I'd love that, but the celebrities are very much signaling Bluesky.
They're doing this because they know the argument "China just builds cheap stuff" hasn't been true for two decades now.
