You could make a game where you see who could roll the bar the farthestWatching the new season of Shark Tank and they managed to immediately become a parody of itself by having one of the pitches be Ball 2, the sequel to Ball, powered by AI. To really seal the deal, the ball 2's battery is not rechargeable or designed to be replaced.

The longer version of this clip is hilarious because of the Muse use cases they brag about. Mullet guy talks about sourcing “obscure teas” from random farms in Asia. Zuck talks about feeding Muse footage from the cameras he installed in his home MMA gym. Very relatable.

I have been getting increasingly generous offers from AI businesses wanting to buy my practice's "anonymized data." It's not going to happen for several reasons, but chief among them is that they propose I send them my client files and THEY would redact/anonymize them. I don't know how you could possibly square that with the law that requires lawyers to keep client confidentiality "at every peril" to themselves and the related Rule 1.6. Yet these businesses claim that many lawyers have taken them up on it. Seems crazy to me.

(Says they figured out how to run Fortnite in Steam)Hoy Fortnite lanzó su nuevo launcher creado con IA y algunos programadores aprovecharon esto para sacar el juego y meterlo en Steam 😭😭😭 Estás personas lograron integrar Fortnite directamente en Steam de forma avanzada. No se trata de un simple acceso directo al archivo ejecutable (EXE), sino de una modificación que solo activa las partes esenciales de Epic Games (como el sistema antitrampas y los procesos mínimos requeridos) para iniciar el juego sin tener que abrir la tienda completa. En pocas palabras, crearon un truco técnico para que puedas jugar Fortnite desde Steam y saltarte por completo la plataforma de Epic Games, haciendo que el juego ejecute únicamente lo necesario para funcionar. https://t.co/AepsMdyiIW

Cosmetic Quality & Recent Feedback Over the past week, we’ve seen conversation, memes, and candid feedback around a few of our latest skins and cosmetic items—specifically the standard issue McNeil skin with “SECUTY” typo. You called it out clearly, and we hear your concerns. First, let's dive into the "Secuty" typo patches on the McNeil character. A correction update has already been planned for the Season 5 Phase 2 release. However, we recognize that letting a known visual error go live without quick acknowledgement creates confusion and erodes trust. We are reviewing how we communicate known visual bugs so you aren’t left wondering whether something was intentional or overlooked. To be completely frank: Items that miss the mark like this do not reflect the quality standards you expect from us, or that we set for ourselves. We take pride in the craft of our world and our gear, and seeing visual oddities slip through is frustrating for everyone. We are currently examining our internal processes and workflows to pinpoint how these issues occurred and to see how we can tighten our quality control process going forward. Thank you for holding us to high standards. We also want to acknowledge the conversation around the Midnight Mirage skin design with 5-Pistols. This is an intentional creative concept—a nod to over-the-top action movie tropes where an operative inexplicably has another backup weapon strapped to every spare inch of gear. That said, we understand how this could look unintentional when released alongside other cosmetic anomalies. As we continue to try out new ideas to see what interests the community, you help us continue to evolve our cosmetics in Battlefield. Thank you for your continued feedback and support.

Says their elderly parents regained some of their language skills communicating with Alexa友人が実家の80代の両親にスマートスピーカー（AI）をプレゼントした結果、ご両親に「主語」と「述語」が劇的に戻ってきたらしい。なぜなら、AI（スマートスピーカー）相手だと、「アレ持ってきて」とか「おい、テレビ」だけじゃ、 「すみません、よく分かりません」 と容赦なく跳ね返されるから。 導入した当初（82歳のお父様）は「使えない機械だな！」って怒っていたそうだが、AIに意思を通すために必死で思考を整理し始めた結果、 お母様（83歳）「アレクサ、明日の【横浜の天気】を教えて」 お父様（86歳）「アレクサ、【昭和30年代の歌謡曲】を【流して】くれ」と、完璧な「5W1Hを含んだ主語・目的語・述語のある文章」をハキハキ喋るようになったとのこと。
