This is stunningly horrible.

I want one.

The thing most companies are missing is to design the AI experience. What happens when it fails? Are we making options available for those who want a standard experience? Do we even have an elegant feedback loop to mark when it fails? Are we accounting for different pitches and accents? How about speech impediments?

I’m a designer focusing on AI, but a lot of companies haven’t even realized they need a designer for this. It’s like we’re the conscience of tech, and listened to about as often.

We could always go back to html chats. Hotelchat, Webmaze…

Wilbur was the pig. Babe is a different movie.

As an actual woman, I’d MUCH rather be ignored. Sexual assault is not fun.

Computers have been beating humans at basic tasks since the beginning. Isn’t that kind of the point?

He only had 4 years, and at the end caused an insurrection. Life got a lot tougher here after him, because he gave the green light for all the nasties to worm out of the woodwork. He increased tensions so badly, a second civil war is no longer ludicrous. That’s not even counting how much worse it got for women BEFORE Roe v Wade was overturned. We haven’t yet finished reaping what he sowed.

I’m not sure the US could survive another 4 years.

As someone who has survived the last 15 years by throwing myself into various creative and offline things, I will say that there is a limit to how much it can help.

I liked the idea of Beehaw, but it ended up being rather like an HOA. You weren’t allowed to ever disagree, no matter how gently, because it “wasn’t nice.” They ironically tried to reduce bullying by bullying people.

Ended up with a bunch of Karens policing each other, so I think that’s a win for all.

What she’s referring to isn’t the same as having emotions. She means the people who expect everyone around them, especially their romantic partner, to manage their emotions for them. Plenty of women do it, too.

I’ve done it for years. They avoid the present hiding place like the plague. :) I suspect my oldest ruined her Christmsas once, but that’s all it took. My youngest is very good at delayed gratification.

I just told my kids where the presents are, and that they are more than welcome to ruin Christmas for themselves if they wanted to.

I use it exclusively. No Bluetooth headphones for me.

Yeah, this isn’t a thing for anyone worth dating.

He hates it when fine dining tries to pass off frozen as fresh. $6 freezer meals clearly don’t have the same bar to meet.

The risk is high in consequences, not frequency.

Besides, murder isn’t the only risk, you know.

^ how to say you don’t talk to many women without actually saying you don’t talk to many women.

Not true. It’s a risk analysis. The risk may be high, but some women still think the potential benefit is worth it.

It’s why so many people still play the lottery.

So much happiness in this little sound.
