Disappointed by yesterday’s Strands. Once again, Gen X is forgotten.

Every.

What actor, born in 1947, belongs in this group? Answer with a photo of him in his best-known role.

After nearly 35 years, the two highlights of my career are: (1) a request from a non-actuary coworker to help him put some actuarial concepts into β€œlame man’s” terms, and (2) an email I received with a typo in the word β€œtypo.”

@susannaclarke.bsky.social Apple told me that the prices are set by the authors, not by Apple. I think you have a typo here.

I once spent an hour debugging a function in my financial model, only to realize that I had been entering my interest rate as 7.05 instead of 0.705 the entire time.

Anyway, so far my conclusion is that AI sucks at anything that can be objectively evaluated.

Just to be clear, I’m experimenting with AI because I’m 95% sure that it will become part of my job in the next few years, and I want to get a handle on what it can/cannot do. If I ever need any actual creative work done, I will do it myself, unaided by AI, or I will hire a human.

Just putting this out there… what if each PB had a tshirt design, the way each MITMH does?

Why is AI so good at some things and so horrible at other things?

@danielprice.bsky.social I had ChatGPT cast the movie. I only made corrections for age appropriateness (e.g., Ryan Reynolds was its first pick for Zach). I don’t know who some of these people are, but I Googled them and based purely on looks it’s….not bad?
