I’m extremely confused. Why is he checking the time every hour 14 times a day? I understand he’s trying to test AI out so he’s doing something trivial, but I feel like I’m having an aneurism reading this. This is still not an optimal way to do reminders. Am I just really dumb or is this nonsense?

He told it to remind him to get milk the next day. The artificial stupidity set up a cron job to check if it was “tomorrow” every so often before it reminded him. He’s a moron for paying for a completely wasteful stupid system that wasted his money.

A fool and his money are soon parted

Oh, I understand that, but then if you look at the table, he says he improved it and it’s still checking 14 hours a day.

If I were to take a drill to a leaky boat hull and claimed to have “improved it,” would it sink any slower?

Fair point. Thank you for the chuckle.
