Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

Yes, I wanted to find that quote, but paraphrasing "Stocks crashed once it was clear the tools would replace legal, and marketing."

No no, think of the efficiency! It's going to get so bad.

As someone who receives marketing emails daily, it's not going to take very advanced AI to measure up to 99% of them.

Not at all, and standardized legal templates? Notary stuff? Code? First line customer support?

Going to be grim.

Do you really need AI to tell you to try unplugging it and plugging it back in?

As one who was that first line support.. you would be surprised.

No, but it's a lot more cost effective to buy an AI license than to pay salary and benefits for someone human to tell you to try unplugging it and plugging it back in

i paused an advert at the oddest moment I cut it off mid-word so instead of diagnosis it it made it sound like this "Many people die"

What are people’s thoughts on inclusivity coming at the expense of historical accuracy in period pieces?

I’m just watching the new Robin Hood, which is full of historical inaccuracies … but one that has got me thinking is when Rob is teaching Ralph how to shoot a bow, and it turns out Ralph is left-handed.

There's practically an entire genre (ok, small genre) that could essentially be called "sanitized historical period pieces". Westerns in particular have a history of cleaning up anything that would be considered negative, although the sensibility of what people would consider "inclusive" has changed a lot over time. High Noon and Johnny Guitar were both considered notably revisionist upon release. Wild Wild West, Shanghai Noon, and Jungle Cruise are more modern examples that are even more revisionist, and much more inclusive. Well, Jungle Cruise is modern, at least.

Its worth noting that revisionist history goes in the other direction, too. Gone With The Wind, for example, is very revisionist in the direction of pro-South, pro-slavery.

Some people are sore losers. If you're about to lose, just surrender or finish your turn instead of insisting on running the clock wasting both our times.
