I thought the same thing. About a year ago I saw an ad recruiting VO talent to help train AI. Maybe no one wanted to train our replacements.

No. I do voice-overs and recently turned down a spot in support of data centers in Wisconsin, despite really needing the money. I knew I'd say no but played along to see what they'd pay, which, not even considering the grotesque wealth of big tech, was a laughable pittance.

The wealthiest among us do more to shit on rural people than anyone. I'm a professional voice-over and was laughably low-balled to do a very high profile tv, radio and digital spot. Such mother fuckers.

Interesting. I adopted two kittens a few years ago. They brought FIP into the house and it killed our two healthy, middle-aged cats, but the two old lady cats (both 17 y/o) were completely unaffected.

Yeah. Like your friend's asshole older brother who never grew up.

Hatred and racism, even in your best Mr Rogers voice, is still hatred and racism.

I was 10 when I saw the 1978 Invasion of the Body Snatchers with my two brothers, 8 and 11. Our unwitting parents were watching The Deer Hunter in another theater. We were so terrified, we had to repeatedly to catch our sanity in the lobby. Good times.

And blaming AI for your punctuation makes me laugh even louder.

Lol!! Having a PhD doesn't make you a decent human being. Go punch down somewhere else, strawman.

I'm heartbroken for her wife and family. May she rest in peace.

The failsafe's what? If you mean plural and not possessive, it's failsafes. No apostrophe. DUH.
