  Agree with all of that. Blue LEDs, especially, have gotten way out of hand, and manufacturers have got to tone it down.

  When I was a kid, and we had a power outage, we made do with kerosene lanterns and board games.

  How times change.

  I half expect that, if enough programmers use ChatGPT-written code verbatim, someday it’s going to lead to Skynet. I mean, what’s to stop ChatGPT from inserting bits of extra code to be used for its own distributed processing botnet?

  I recently saw a TV commercial for Little Caesars Pizza, where they’re now offering a limited-edition pineapple-flavored Pepsi as part of a meal deal. That way, you can have your pineapple flavor without necessarily pissing off the “no pineapple on pizza” purists among those you’re sharing the pizza with.

  Whether anyone will like pineapple-flavored Pepsi is up for debate.

  I remember how, years ago, an AI was asked to write a script for a Batman comic book, given a bunch of real comic issues as its learning input. The resulting script was horribly stilted, and hilarious to read. It was popular enough that an artist turned it into an actual comic book.

  Today’s AIs have come a long way.
