100% still have my Commodore 64 - with running disk drive!

That’s the one computer I can trust. Still have to apply percussive maintenance when it gets stuck loading. Knowing that these AI networks already have sucked in the NYT archive, tons of other data sources, social media data and user preferences means to me that we are in the age of self justifying truths. I swear - I would love grandkids - but think I could go without because of the world they are gonna be in.

AI can be frustrating. It hallucinates facts. Lacks common sense. Struggles
