@ToddRobertAnderson Was just thinking, “I liked the first series but I’m not sure the second is panning out. I don’t know if I’m gonna keep watching every week.” And then this just popped up on my screen. I take it all back. #CoopersBar
Went to my eye doctor this morning and halfway though the appointment she said, "I'd like to check your contacts. Did you bring any with you?" and I said, "Yes", and reached into the side pocket of my bag and pulled this out and she said, "I think I've found the source of your blurry vision."
@ToddRobertAnderson Sunday night just playing random songs from a songbook and after giving the first two verses my best Dr. Hook rendition noticed the composer (yer old Uncle Shelby!)... Apparently he also wrote The Cover of the "Rolling Stone"... As Papa Schimmelhorn said, "Ve get too soon old, und too late schmart"

To protect human artistry from AI, new safeguards might be essential

The problem is not just the immiseration of artists’ incomes. It's also the ingesting of artistic content and then reconstituting it as faux original work.

Just reviewed a client's pitch deck and said, "as the great Tom Petty warned,

'Don't bore us, get to the chorus'."

I love the way my brain works.

@ToddRobertAnderson Just wanted you to know that for now and forever -any- reference to The Babadook makes me think of you immediately. Thanks.
I found this taped to the door of the geography department at GWU today and it brought me so much joy. A guide to figuring out when a map was made based on features. Zoom in. It’s amazing.
Once again Bob nails it. #bobsburgers
I got tossed out of the Spitfire Audio group on FB (the one with 6k users not run by the company) after posting the attached. This comes after one of the cofounders of the company stepped down after repeatedly aligning themselves with some anti-trans celebrities & causes. This shit is complicated and no company is just one person, but the moderator of the FB group decided to rename the group the "Christian Henson Fan Club", which I guess was intended to 'own the libs'.
