Got Gemini to summarise a Google Meet call, and in the document it used two spaces after each full stop and brought back all my nightmare times in the civil service. AI must be stopped at all costs.

I read somewhere that we should maximise ChatGPT o1's thinking by ending a prompt with "use at least 1000 reasoning tokens", so I now have a 2,000-word opus expounding on what size uniforms I should buy for my primary school-entering kiddo based on some data points I sent in. AI is hilarious.

My Messages app on macOS has been giving me 3 unread messages all week, and I got the answer on how to clear them from Claude — ask Siri to "read me my messages". Now I'm just super annoyed at the spammers who sent messages that got filtered on my phone but not my Mac.
