I heard they want to go back to the old material that was easier to roll up, because of coke.
It's amazing because the eyes seem to follow around the doom.
The front of the packaging. A pair of scissors are trapped inside hard plastic.
Oh.
Instructions on the back of some plastic packaging, the first line reads "User scissors to carefully open the packaging".
Sounds like a plan.
Having to fix AI/machine translation is more work than just translating from scratch.
the british government not only hates me because I'm foreign, but also it wants to give away my stuff for free to billionaires
And the people "checking" AI slop are paid less than for translating, while it is usually just as much work, and often a lot more work, to "check" and rewrite slop than to translate from scratch.
Oh I wasn't particularly casting shade on Crichton's books (!) it was more a reference to the Michael Crichton Effect (aka Gell-Mann Amnesia but I always have to look that up).
They've made a Michael Crichton Machine.
"If I was to use ChatGPT for my designs rather than our designer Sean, that's taking money out of the local area into the hands of a multibillionaire ... removing value from the local community and local artists [and] into the hands of some of the richest people in the world."

The 13-year-old who lives with us came home from school saying it's not that the guy who runs the gym needs all the weights moved across the room.

Nobody who has said "don't worry, we have a human check everything the AI puts out" has ever been telling the truth. If you paid humans to check it rigorously enough to match the previous human quality you would immediately lose all the money you saved and defeat the purpose
What a finish that second one is
Was that the same as at Juve? He joined until the end of last season, then signed a fresh contract in the summer.
Same story from same sources in June 2025 - he lasted til October. gianlucadimarzio.com/calciomercat...

That might work!

To translate is to leave something, almost everything, out.
Translation is a conscious process where the elements that are put aside are as important as those that we choose to keep. AI, thus, cannot translate because it is incapable of understanding the act of leaving behind.
The way he says that is like an impression of himself.

Impossible to find anything specific on this kind of thing with the new internet, but I did stumble on this doco of London life from late 60s, with Mason's voice-over. www.dailymotion.com/video/x5h8w0m
Also, is this the appeal of the sketch show? Thinking especially of that kind of two-handed Morecambe & Wise / Two Ronnies heyday.
The Goes Wrong Show sort of did that - given the excuse of the framing device. The "actors" had the same personalites coming through whatever role and genre they are in this week
See also: AI to write and summarise novels and make films. Robots to walk your dog, play with your kids, nurse your parents. We're taking away the things that make you human, imagination, joy, and connection, so you can GET BACK TO WORK. It's never a robot to cook dinner while I read a book, is it?
The Times, 30th January 2026: "All 2.4m of Britain’s creative workers are at risk — and we know why. A new report into the impact of AI on the creative sector makes for apocalyptic reading. The government must act now." Source: https://archive.is/hvRv2
"The UK creative industries — which contributed £125 billion to the economy in 2024 and supported 2.4 million jobs — are being destroyed by an AI sector that, whatever its long-term potential, contributed just £11 billion in the same year and supported only 85,000 jobs."

But it’s being used for so many crappy and evil things I am honestly against even using it for things it would be ostensibly useful for.
