  1. We’ve already been “told” what some of the costs relate to our various AI tools. The tokens. I do worry though about it making things too easy. At least for some of us. Like GPS and knowing “where you are”. I’ve always had a good sense of direction so that doesn’t apply to me but I know peoole, younger ones, who can’t go further than 20 minutes with a GpS telling them where to go. But I have been using it for some kind of basic questions where I just didn’t want to bother figuring it out or remembering. Like something in Excel. So I just ask our tool. I could have had it myself in maybe a few minutes or farting around. But I got it instantly. Especially with the way you can be specific and it doesn’t forget. But is there value in me spending that few minutes figuring it out?
  2. There's going to be a backlash I think against AI. We cannot predict the future. Regarding the doom and gloom... if everybody's replaced by AI then who will the customers be? We were all given AI objectives this year and we laugh at it. Maybe off the cliff but we see the holes already in trying to implement it in our work. Then it becomes "Well, just call this AI to check the box". Using in place of something like google has been fantastic. It absolutely helps me do my job faster but it does not replace what I do. I'm not special. Just a hack grinding away. 7 years ago I spent 3 months on something because autonomous vehicles was the way forward.
  3. Me either. I can always tell too. There’s an aftertaste and my stomach will notice.
  4. **** them.
  5. Some of my favorites; The introduction of Larry, Daryl and Daryl on Newhart. Bob and Chucks magic trick on soap. from movies, the only times I sustained a laugh to where I had to fight to stop, in a theater happened 3 times Naked Gun when he had the mic on while urinating. Dumb and Dumber when they ate the burgers with all the peppers. Something about Mary, the “hair gel”
  6. I’m pretty sure that fans of participating teams are not considered at all in the equation for an NBA playoff game 7. It’s whatever the league and entity paying for the broadcast rights want. I went to a tiger playoff game on a Saturday night and came right back Sunday morning for a noon start time.
  7. Now we will hear a bunch of stuff. The only good Republican is a retired republican.
  8. Today is the 40 year anniversary of the Dallas episode where Bobby Ewing “came back” from the dead by appearing in the shower to close out the season. (He died the previous season in their cliff hanger. It all ended up being a dream). Patrick Duffy’s in town at comic con and someone shared these photos where he’s having fun with it
  9. Once again I switch from Heat to Cool.
  10. The cocky part is the key. Jays fans flooded tiger stadium but their team just won a title and seeing how close we were it made sense. Canadians from Ontario are harmless. Cavs fans got cocky in 88 and 89 thinking Mark Price and Daugherty were going to skip past the Pistons. Mahorn elbowed Price and he cried like a bitch. Then Jordan took care of them.
  11. I have a 30 year hatred of Cleveland fans. Goes back to when they flooded Tiger stadium. No other city fan base makes me angry. I can’t explain it. But F them.
  12. By “be normal” he means “don’t nominate a girl, especially a back girl”.
  13. Alternate uniforms and Apple TV and a Bullpen day... a lot to complain about.
  14. That's great. My wife used to work out at a place on Mack near you. Run by a very good person. Detroit Body Garage. She only left due to some scheduling issues.
  15. Thirteen Days is a great movie, pretty accurate, but nearly ruined by Kevin Costner trying to do a Boston accent.. then he kind of gave up at some point
