@solalnathan Just curious, what does "IA" stand for in this context? It's coming up in sporadic hashtags...

@eep just a typo. In French we say "Intelligence Artificielle" (IA) and when I try to type too fast I mix up my French and my English.

I'll edit the original toot, thanks!

@solalnathan Ah lol, I actually wondered if it was the French spelling, thanks.
@eep lets go back check all of my toots one by one now 😅
