Today I look back at the decision of my mom, when I was 8, to not listen to the doctors when they wanted to put me on Ritalin. I was “disruptive” at school. My mom instead took me off sugar and forever changed the trajectory of my life. I was simply a highly extroverted boy that loved to talk. I remain that adult today that learned to focus through work and effort, and not drugs. I also am probably much taller than I would have been taking the drugs. Eternally grateful.

It is utterly galling to listen to democrats bleat on about democracy and misinformation when it was they who, through the FBI and the feckless media, promulgated torrents of misinformation in order to thwart the will of the electorate.

I must say looks like Tasmanian Devil, but AI prompts make pictures like how AI wants🤭

Twitter is still the place where all the allowable conversations are happening.

Is this even possible ?

I'm having technical difficulties. On different apps I seem to be "stuck" in the past and can't get any new content. Switching around to different apps- now I've lost everyone that I was following. If someone sends me something and I don't respond- it's likely I am not seeing it. 😑 I am trying to re-follow people. Eeek. Maybe I just need to quit for the night. GN! (if anyone can even see this!) wish me luck.

Some people think AI and AI chat bots are all hype. They couldn’t be more wrong.

Thousands of tasks can now be automated or at the very least done significantly faster with much less effort and by fewer people.

Unlike humans, AI systems don’t get tired, don’t take vacations, and don’t single task. They can access vast amounts of data quickly and find the parts that matter. Reporting, presenting, what used to take hours now takes seconds. Combined with other forms of data connected by plugins, it’s much easier to surface the right data.

Unlike humans, once trained, AI systems don’t require constant retraining. They scale much faster and cheaper beyond anything a traditional human workforce can accomplish.

Which fields are impacted? No, the better question is which fields AREN’T impacted. Data work, customer service, manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare, marketing, transportation, finance, HR, retail, design, development, are just the tip of the iceberg.

AI touches everything, and we are only in the early stages. My guess is there won’t be a single thing we do that is not somehow impacted by AI. At some point, anything you do, touch and experience will have had an AI play a role in making it happen.

We are in a major shift in the way things are done, on a much grander scale than the industrial revolution.

The next 2-3 years will be super interesting to say the least. If the smart phone could change the world in a fairly short period of time, it’s hard too imagine what AI will do for us in the same timeframe. The world may not be recognizable a decade from now, even though every fiber of your being may deny it.
