It must be paying the taxes that makes you happy. Works for the middle class, anyway.

Have you see the Thomas Paine clip? It goes from vaguely plastic to extremely wooden.

This feels like the gap between taste and talent that Ira Glass talks about. But the AI is widening that gap, not closing it. The uncanny valley has a rift.

I love myself, I want you to bamf me
When I feel down I want you above me
I search myself, I want you to find me
I forget myself, I want you to remind me

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you I bamf myself
Ah-ah-oh, I don't want anybody else
Oh-no, oh-no, oh-no

Trump plans to use Venezuela’s huge crude reserves β€˜to cut US oil price to $50 a barrel’ President reportedly hopes falling price will cut domestic consumer energy bills
