"We call her Carrie, because of the carriage return."

You can also try to give the child NULL as middle name for additional fun.

Our boss was freaking out over people sometimes doing some private calls during work hours and at a certain point absolutely forbade it. So yeah, people would just end the call at 17:00 sharp and switch off the work phone. It took one week before that rule was rescinded.

The first hour in the office was spent staring at the screen wiggling the mouse from time to time when the screen saver came on because too tired from commuting every day. But, it was at the office so it was productive staring I guess.

People asked the question before. It went something like:

"You do realize that he'll be a dictator, right?"

They didn't start it with rocks. The first calculators used gears. Those were hard to reprogram. So they started using relais. That worked but was very slow. Then they found out that lamps (vacuum tubes) could take the place of relais but these wore down too fast. Then someone figured out that rock stuff (silicium) could do the same as a vacuum tube. After that it became a race to make them as small as possible to cram more of them together.

Sometimes, the AI gets the little details wrong.

In school we always get an assignment to compare the same story in different newspapers. It was amazing to see them all have different details. And that was before the internet existed. So AI here isn't better, just cheaper.

Other times, the AI wholly fabricates events.

We call that Boris Johnson.

Meta tried to do the same. The EU response was to ask when they'd leave to plan the going away party. Meta was a lot less confrontational after that.

There are now three competing standards.

EU says it's not the EU fining Apple. It's actually 27 different countries. Now pay up.
