I think this speaks more to the usefulness of performance reports than the usefulness of GenAI

During the Iraq War, there was a brief moment where a camera crew just happened to be in the right place at the right time to show the world a live broadcast of a perfectly healthy Saddam Hussein out in the wild, being greeted by his troops as a hero. Except the guy really didn't look much like Saddam Hussein at all. It was the kind of cheap fake that you would think people could never fall for.

Since then, we've seen time and time again what people will fall for.

So, yes. Not only are you correct, you are probably more correct than people would want to admit.

FTA

Industry groups argued that those museums didn’t have “appropriate safeguards” to prevent users from distributing the games once they had them in hand. They also argued that there’s a “substantial market” for older or classic games, and a new, free library to access games would “jeopardize” this market. Perlmutter agreed with the industry groups.

So as long as someone, somewhere, might make a penny off of them, they can't be free. Insert your own metaphor here.

I guess these are those "the best people" that we've heard mentioned so many times.

yeah and my ex-boyfriend "intends" to pay me back the $3500 I loaned him to fix his car.

Right.

Even the news is in re-runs.

Funny how they use the phrase "with it's data" when it's our data.

Equally funny how there's no mention of how users who no longer have active accounts are supposed to tell Xitter that they don't want to share what they entered. Musk has openly flaunted law before (even to its own employees), so it's pretty silly for people to think that they would abide by what users choose in the first place.

it looks like there's a light-blue-on-white strip visualizer over the timeline at the bottom.
