The sky was looking ominous so I asked my phone "surely it can't rain today?" To which Siri responded "yes it is going to rain, and don't call me Shirley" it was at this point I knew my phone was on airplane mode.

Apparently, AI really has no idea what a croissant is supposed to look like.
Be that as it may, I'm still craving a croissant this morning. The real kind, not the AI kind.
