Wow, not sure if this is noise or a serious concern. I personally would not want anything to do with AI for starters.

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

Checked out the article.  

Disagree with “cheating Android” dirty old men.  Android  has locking apps for a while.  Since I give Daniel my phone sometimes, I locked my bank, Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, and Spirit Halloween apps.  He know to put stuff in the cart but not how to “buy now” ••• … yet.

I don’t see anything in iPhotos that is “terrible”, but neither Android or iPhone allow tags on photos.  That’s annoying and cumbersome.  Sigh!  

Nothing else to report on in this “news”.  No misspellings to give away that it’s AI written.

As far as AI is concerned, I don’t find any compelling use case for it.  So I give it a big “meh”.

I expect that we’ll see this in a lot of tools over the next century!

FUN: irregardless

Friday, December 19, 2008

“Do you fix misspelled menus? Correct your girlfriend’s grammar? Cringe every time someone says “supposably” or “nucular”? Has this obsessive behavior ever gotten you in trouble (i.e., dumped, fired, or arrested for defacing public property?).”

No, but when I was hot under the collar about a room reservation screw up, I did roast a hotel clerk’s tail feathers over the word “ilregardless”. Every once and while my Luddite friend uses it. We all laff.

But, I’m not sure he was joking?

(Are you?)
