Every time I have to write a new collector for an API, I am reassured that AI will not be able to do this job because of how universally bad API documentation is and how they're often more exceptions than rules. 
Got to love when OpenAI's own greedy policies end up killing proposals to integrate LLM solutions at my work because all the features people want are unavailable from the API. Makes my job as the AI cynic even easier. 🤷🚯
I find it kinda frustrating amongst all the push up here to "buy Canadian" that few people pay attention to the US tech giants who make billions off our personal data then donate that money to the US politicians causing this mess. 🤷
I just realized that all these "deep research" AI offerings are using an LLM to parse results from web searches, but the web searches are already getting flooded with AI slop... Sooooo, it's just LLMs all the way down?
Renewed my tickets for the next opera season. I am irrationally excited that they're putting on the Barber of Seville and I am going to drag out anyone willing to go to it. 😆
I have a really, really stupid request at work that has severe flaws in its methodology but they are adamant on getting it done quickly. I took a closer look at their proposal and it hit me: This was written by ChatGPT. 🤦

"We here at Breeve Inc. want you to know about the new Breva Retro-encabulator! Remember, Berve Inc. is the leader in all things Breeeeeeve!"

I will never stop laughing at how AI transcripts of work meetings constantly get our company name wrong in different ways.
By the way, if you want to hear Puccini's use of the Star Spangled Banner as a theme in this opera, the first 30 seconds of this track is a really beautiful example ❤️ https://open.spotify.com/track/2bQChrxq9UsCVs1wTGn629?si=2876f3a3109d4371

I'm starting to feel that increasing our privacy is going to be important for what's to come. First the tech giants profited off our data, but now they are using it against us.
