I think if Chris Fleming appeared on @Dropout.tv, it would solve a lot of our planetβs problems.
And this monthβs hyperfixation iiiiiiiiis *spins giant wheel* shipwrecks and maritime #history! Why not!
A New York bill would ban AI from answering questions related to several licensed professions like medicine, law, dentistry, nursing, psychology, social work, engineering, and more.

I was ready to hate-watch WUTHERING HEIGHTS when itβs streaming. Through gritted teeth.
But the more I learn about it, the more I donβt think Iβll even hate-watch it. It sounds too awful.
