Just found out that a theatre nearby is screening the original TMNT movie this week BUT when it gets to the part where Raphael goes to the movies to see Critters,
they're stopping TMNT, playing Critters in it's entirety,
and then resuming TMNT.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA CRITTERS
The first TMNT movie until Raph goes to see Critters, then Critters in its entirety, then back to TMNT when Raph walks out of the theatre.

Proven time and time and time and time again. When will the haters learn?
Let these exit polls be yet another reminder:
1. Can’t nobody say jack shit to -OR- about Black Women.
2. The ONLY group who has the right to say anything to -OR- about Black Men…are Black Women.
When you’re consistently #1 and #2 in the game, you’ve earned that right.

This. The rush to market GenAI has created a muddy understanding of AI in general. Distinguishing slop from usefulness ought to be the task of those who cover it, but alas.
They are also intentionally conflating machine-learning and generative AI slop to confuse and try to make GenAI seem necessary. Google Maps traffic stuff is machine learning, not GenAI, for example. Auto-correct is too. Don't let them make you lose the thread. GenAI slop is slop.
the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever
