  • My surprise is that this isn’t a common thing from the TV network. It would be fairly simple to do a “virtual” overlay of some average Joe running on the same track from previous years, and individual sports would be even easier to do featurettes.

    I’d lean toward two people being featured. An average Joe male and a decathlete female or some such. There are some events that even an average man would crush, but seeing the woman beat the guy consistently would also be kind of fun.










  • A ‘business’ contact that is on a social media that I have to use for work, posted essentially the opposite of this, claiming that none of these are abortions, and if your provider says that they are, that you just need to find another provider. Challenge here is that none of the providers are willing to take the risk…




  • I don’t want AI crammed into all the nooks and crannies either, but companies are using AI to advance productivity in very real ways, not just writing software. Just data analysis alone where you throw a bunch of sales data at an AI and have it spit out some less-intuitive trends that it’d take a team of people to suss out is an actual cost savings that can make-line-go-up.

    I do agree that it’s a bubble for sure but just like the housing bubble, there is still a lot of underlying value that will stick around after the burst.



  • That’s the old Slashdot model. It does change how echo-y the chambers become when you limit how things get amplified. Those with higher engagement get to push things a lot harder and I’d actually fear the opposite. An Ai model would certainly be able to echo the general feeling of a place and then slowly turn the dial toward a goal, and do it more effectively in that case as it can comment on everything anyway.
