Working Daze by John Zakour and Scott Roberts for June 04, 2023

Never get anything computerized that is named Hal.

Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do,

I’m half crazy, All for the love of you,

It won’t be a stylish marriage,

I haven’t got a carriage,

But you’ll look sweet, up on the seat

Of a bicycle built for two!

(“Daisy Bell” is also a part of history in another major way. In 1961, it became the earliest song performed using computer speech synthesis by the IBM 704.)

Hope you don’t need your Pod Bay doors open.

Good morning everyone. Have a blessed Sunday.

Starts to worry you"? It started worrying me a VERY long time ago. lol

Be afraid, be deathly afraid…..

Technology does not worry me in the slightest. What so-called humans may do with it terrifies me.

I asked Siri if she would still be my friend when AI’s took over the world. After a pause she replied, “Of course.” I don’t know whether I’m good or dead.

No new batteries until taking it off the networks and doing a system reset and verify.

“I asked it to forget everything and start over.”

Unlike HAL, it’s easy to pull the plug on Alexa.

quite a timely commentary with the advent of AI. Sounds like someone is trying to put a stop to Hal’s progenies
