I used ChatGPT's o3 with search to see if it can forecast the box office for the 2nd weekend of Sinners.
I'm impressed with its reasoning, especially with such a short prompt.
We'll see how it does on Sunday.
Stay Tuned.

ChatGPT’s Super Bowl ad was too abstract, self-important, and lacked emotionality.
From a brand strategy perspective, it failed to answer the most critical question:
WHY should I care?
The most interesting thing about it?
It was designed to work as vertical video too. 👇

Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, asks candidates to confirm they haven’t sued AI in their job applications.
Basically, Claude can help you do the job—just not get the job.
I find this pretty hypocritical…

Generative AI already has the fastest adoption rate of any technology in history.
Faster than the internet.
Way faster than PCs.
It hit 40% adoption rate in under 18 months.
At this speed, businesses can’t afford gradual shifts—it’s time to rethink everything.
