Threads is littered with people roleplaying as AI generated hot women. Are these the electric sheep the androids dream about

The bizarre part of doing an AI generated revolutionary war documentary is you can already log onto YouTube and get plenty of slop versions that are probably sillier and funnier and already appeal to the lowest common denominator. This is now your competition: how do you plan on winning?

(But also, why not use AI to crank out Oak Island episodes, or slight variations on the Atlantis and Pharoah's treasure stories I assume still dominate on the "history" channels)







You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs) Good tech. Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales) Bad tech.

@channelnewsasia Videos on social media show shoppers in China rushing to Ikea stores after the furniture giant announced that seven of its stores will cease operations from Feb 2. The stores are located in Shanghai’s suburban Baoshan district, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Nantong and Xuzhou in eastern Jiangsu province, Ningbo in eastern Zhejiang province and Harbin in northeast Heilongjiang province. #ikea #china ♬ original sound - CNA

Its serpentine curves have entranced drivers for decades, and even lured some to their death. For motorcycle and car enthusiasts, riding the hair-raising turns of the 2.4-mile section of Mulholland Highway known as “the Snake” can feel akin to a religious experience. When the road reopened after a nearly seven-year closure in December, its devotees returned in droves. But locals who live at the base of this motorsports mecca have a very different view of the Snake. Read more at the link in bio.

@georgelovestreats Hi, it’s George. I am a small dog with a strong sense of justice. While it is true that I was licking my paws, and it is true that the bed became damp, these events are being irresponsibly linked without evidence. I reject these accusations and will be cooperating only through my legal team. #dogsoftiktok #funnydog #doghumor #doglife #dogmom ♬ It Wasn't Me - Shaggy
