Amazon has deployed it's 1 millionth service robot today. These robots have replaced people working at facilities for years, all powered by AI.

So why are we still shopping at Amazon?

Aren't they "stealing" jobs from actual workers?

Or are we just looking the other way when it's convenient?

Rubber duck Daesh. Now with exuberance.

Took this source picture at The Charleston at Bremerton, WA back in 2015. Totally worth saving it.

If you’re creating Super Mario or Doom culture isn’t important. But if you’re creating a playable interactive world it absolutely is. But AAA studios regularly get it wrong, taking shortcuts for quick profit and delivering hollow apologies afterward. Why? Because we still buy it.

Groks 6 second AI videos aren't perfect... but they can still be fun and with a little help from Premiere, you can get a nifty result.

This one is my wife and I. We took an American Gothic picture during lockdown. Grok provided the video conversion.

Who says AI isn’t useful?

The level of right wing spam Twitler sends its accounts by default is horrific. I have no interest in MAGA clowns or their politics, but that platform is force feeding it to me as a business owner and inspiring me to not log in. Horrible approach.

Trumps getting ready to be the Lyin King.

Wow typos coupled with me not wearing my glasses. I did not hear a “bear” there are no bears in NZ. I heard a beat. And apparently was autocorrected to bear just like what happened now, and didn’t see it.

Ahh, memories. This is just a normal day in our household.

Is LinkedIn the latest platform to become a right-wing activist shelter? After publishing an article on the rise of open racism on LinkedIn, this gem showed up. Holy smokes! 😱

Lots of artists are claiming AI has no place in art but is great at code and customer support.

What I’m hearing is NIMBY nonsense from folks who are trying to divert discussion instead of engage.

What’s your take?

Ironically, AI could not spell "Aotearoa" correctly no matter how many times I tried. It has trouble with Māori words too!

Ageism remains a persistent problem in the NZ workplace, despite laws prohibiting it. Workers over 40 begin to experience a slowdown in interviews, and after 50 many recruiters turn their backs entirely, aided by software.
