Go my Bothriolepis... This year's fish pecan pie! Bothriolepis was a peculiar-looking placoderm from the Devonian period or the Paleozoic. It had two long pointed pectoral fins and silly little eyes on top of its head.

There is NO FUCKING EXCUSE for this to be happening.
I had a baby die in my arms of pertussis some fifty years ago. It was a HORRIBLE death. But my fellow nurses said to me, "It's almost stamped out now, they're all getting the shots, we won't be seeing this again."
HOW THE FUCK ARE WE HERE. 😡

A third infant has died in Kentucky, KYDPH adds:
“These are Kentucky’s first pertussis deaths since 2018. None of the infants nor their mothers received the recommended pertussis vaccinations during pregnancy or early infancy.”

My dad worked for WorldCom. He'd lived the American Dream, and was the kind of a company man in the way that made sense back then, the son of a steelworker who came out of the Air Force and did repair work at MCI, did well, and ended up promoted and promoted until he was a senior VP.

I've seen people accepting "AI" when it doesn't affect them. Writers using it for art, artists using it for voiceover, etc.
There is no "good use" of "AI". I compared it to a Nazi bar the other day for a reason. If there's a Nazi in a bar not getting kicked out, it's a Nazi bar. Same with "AI".

“But it’s not voiceover, it’s just text.”
Yes and writers shouldn’t be getting replaced by this sort of thing.
“They couldn’t generate responses to every possible thing asked”
Yeah and expecting any NPC to be able to has clear downsides and trying to will result in bland, unimpressive dialogue.
