IT. Tech. Rants. Books. Science. Old blinky beepy things. Howdy!
I have yet to find any AI generator that can successfully carry out a simple transcription generation.
Try this simple prompt:
Create an image with the phrase “Wherever you go, there you are!” as if it were carved in marble.
It’s always garbage. Never legible.
Local board member calls out the city of Mission for “holding” $3 million in tax revenue for 7 months instead of giving it to the org it was budgeted for. The city finally releases the money, but then fires the board member. Welcome to the Texas Valley!
Adobe CC users: "Starting January 17, we will begin enforcing generative credit limits on select plans.. since generating content with AI models requires significant computational resources, we have updated our plans to include a monthly allocation of generative credits.”
Generative credits will renew each month based on the CC plan’s original billing date. Using any generative function will generally cost 1 credit: Generative Fill, Generative Expand, Text to image, etc. Credits will not roll over monthly.
If you have a CC "all apps" plan, you get 1,000 credits per month. For individual CC app plans, the credit allowance varies. Adobe is not strictly enforcing limits on PAID CC plans until March 1.

Microsoft announced they’re adding a new key to all keyboards for AI integrations. I think they missed a huge opportunity to leverage decades of existing branding. Instead of a new key, why not make make the *existing* Windows key *also* mean AI access? Add it all in there. Easy pitch - show a wide range of consumers pressing the windows key and creating AI music, art, etc. The voiceover “it’s not just the windows key now. It’s the key to new windows. New worlds. New creations. It’s advanced AI. Windows.” End with the windows logo. Tie it in!
2/2 Try sitting back in the new McDonald’s chairs - you won’t reach the table. Try sitting in any of the bolted down chairs longer than 10 minutes - you can’t. By design.
Once upon a time, there were playgrounds here.
1/2 Been to a McDonalds recently? They’re switching to a “brutalist” design. No more customer soda access. Bare counters. Floor bolted chairs you have to sit on the very uncomfortable edge of just to reach the mini tables. Zero decorations.
Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom toys are already on clearance at WalMart. 12” and 4” figures are marked down from $9 to $3. Play sets from $20 to $7. Brutal.
