Things that happen in a home office that don’t occur on site. A neighbour’s cat, who’s normally outdoor, followed me inside because it was too cold out for her so I invited her in to warm up

All workplaces have their distractions, but remote work has the strangest ones. Consider this cat who huffs the radiator behind our living room couch

The core of my critical perspective on AI technology is that LLMs can't really produce artificial intelligence because they can only produce meaningful text & manipulate language tokens. But you'll believe they're artificial intelligence if you think that's all intelligent thought is at all.

“American Pie” by Don McLean. Mediocre poetry trying to sound profound but never escapes its pathetic nostalgia that goes on much too long & was played mercilessly on the oldies station my mom & I would listen to on the way to school every morning.
