Antic Ineptitude

 


Today's Tids Issue 5,367 

It knows what I wrote: 

 

 

My neighbor texted me, "I just made synonym buns!" I texted back, "You mean like grammar use to make?" AI would never have gotten that. I just read over 50 AI generated jokes and they are just not funny. AI failures are generally all about adaptability inability (ai), and that is especially true when trying to get beyond grammar rules, and especially in puns. A How adaptable is AI to changing situations at this point in time. I mean it is amazing what it can do, but can it exhibit reasonable rationality when faced with inconsistencies outside the box? Scientists are really trying hard to get AI to write jokes, but write now, comedians aren’t worried.  

 

You are never too old, really. At 97 years old, Dick Van Dyke appeared on the Masked Singer last night, did a little tap dance and sang supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. 

 

To some people, AI is just another way for people to ask google to search for something.  

 

To other people AI means Automotive Industry or American Independence.  

 

The two most important words in my gourmet cookbook are gravy and frosting.  

 

The Question: 

Which Nascar drivers have won the most Daytona 500 races? 

 

The Headlines: 

--Stocks Off Again; Economy Too Hot. 

--5 Memphis Police Officers Plead Not Guilty in Tyre Nichols Death. 

--After 10 days, Earthquake Survivors Still Found. 

--New Poll Shows US Pepel Losing Interest in Ukraine War 

--East Palestine Ohio Residents Feel Left Behind as They See Their Lives Evaporate   

--News Drying Up as Weekend Approaches. 

 

The hot dog that won an academy award was an Oscar wiener. 

 

Last night the weather people regaled us about the warmth of the day. But where I was walking near a roaring ocean, it was cold as hell.   

 

On writing Jokes, Department: 

AI is just too literal and makes bad assumptions when it comes to creating humor. Much less understand a good word play joke. Here’s one joke written by AI and its own analysis: AI-Generated Joke: "What Kind of Error is a Clothes?" "A Dress Up." (It gives an explanation for the Joke. So apparently it's a Joke because... mess and dress rhyme. mess-up is a kind of error. dress and clothes mean roughly the same.) Hey but never underestimate the American audience to laugh at anything. Comedians can bring down the house just by saying the F word. I got a bunch of AI generated jokes and you won’t be laughing. A favorite AI joke among comedians, “What is a blonde in a brunette wig? Artificial Intelligence.” 

 

And puns would drive AI to an oil change. If it had feelings. 

 

Maybe Joe B is refusing to declare East Palestine's chemical envelopment as a disaster area because he made a deal with Netanyahu. 

 

In 1981 I went to the first Robotics trade show ever in Detroit. Every Rube Goldberg was there with an imposing looking machine. But if ten percent of them actually worked, that was a lot. However they were all there because they all wanted their company names to be part of the promise of a robot explosion. And AI is a bit like that today. Press release after press release has some company jumping into the AI field just so they can get onboard a rocket to the financial moon. Yes, the stock market is looking for a new star to ride and AI appears to be it. But lately others are calling this perhaps the next big stock bubble and are preaching caution. Do you think anybody will listen as the hype machine believes its own predictions? 

 

How do you stop an AI robot invasion? Wear a red stoplight. 

 

There are suns we have yet to see racing towards us at untold speeds of light. That’s one reason why I am in awe of this galaxy of ours. That, of course, is in addition to so many great and wonderful people I have met who live in it.  

 

Did you hear about the archeologist whose career is in ruins? 

 

Some of those buildings so devastated appearing in photos from the Turkey Syria earthquake were considered “Luxury” apartment buildings.  

 

I'm pretty excited for Sunday when the Daytona 500 returns to kick off another great NASCAR season. Pole sitter is Alex Bowman who is joined on the front row by Kyle Larson and Joey Logano. One of my favorites Chase Elliot is way down at 8Ross Chastain after his amazing “Wall” finish in last year’s semis (The “wall” technique is now banned.) is down at #23. 

 

The NBA All-Star Game is on this weekend. I will probably not watch it because it is just a big exhibition not unlike the SB halftime show. 

 

But the end of the Genisis Open will be a good one, I'm sureThis is one of the new select tourneys with big money pots and is mandatory for all the top golfers. Definitely not an exhibition. 

 

From the Wiley Miller “Non-0Segutur” Comic: “I miss the days when I had some idea of what the hell was going one” 

 

The Answer: 

King Richard, Richard Petty, tops them all with 7 Wins. Next at 4 wind is Cale Yarborough and he is followed by 3-time winners Bobby Allison, Dale Jarrett, Jeff Gorden and Danny Hamlin (In this year’s)/ There are a lot of 2-time winners like Bill Elliot, Sterling Martin, Dake Earnhardt Jr., Michael Waltrip Jimmie H Johnson, Matt Kenseth. The five best racers in Daytona history are considered to be Petty, Yarborough, Gordon, Hamlin and Allison. Will Hamlin get his fourth. Will he and Ross Chastain have a fight?  

 

Have a really happy, lively, dancing weekend, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
