I will not consider AI “intelligent” until humans are proven to be. GIGO. #ai #programming #marketing #failure

“There are all sorts of noise. The noise of incessant attacks. The noise of ludicrous marketing. The noise in your head telling you to listen to the noise.” #writing #throwawayline

“She sat staring at her phone, as if doing so would make her life better. Messages trolled across the screen. Sighing, she got up and decided life would be better with a can of Spam.” #writing #throwawayline

It’s a stressful existence. Sometimes you just have to go with the flow. #tao

“Tell me you love me.” “I do.” “You’re lying.” “You didn’t pay me.” “But what about the kids?” “You don’t pay for them either.” #writing #throwawayline
