Interesting, after having recently learned that German tanks and armored vehicles in the Bundeswehr run on Windows.
What! They don’t run on DOS with floppy disks anymore?
Probably Windows 3.1. Security through obscurity, like the banking system relying on COBOL 
Assume at least Windows XT is the industry standard.
Gives a whole new meaning to the Blue screen of DEATH.

Finally, I received today guidance from my employer that we can’t use AI for sensitive tasks (working with customer data). This covers 80% of invoiceable hours 
A slow one from the back asked if we could use the EPFL & ETH recently released AI because if it’s Swiss is good and the answer was a louder NO.

Amazing! $560 billion invested and by the end of the year $35 billion made. If that does not seem to be a bubble than.. But hey! We can lay off human resources.
But hey! No need to worry. Sign up now for AI training and you can land a job at Walmart.
Now one can have the perfect relationship that they always dreamed of.

Yikes…glad I don’t have much time left, and what I have I spend looking at the mountains.
First common language article I read about AI bubble. Outside finance and tech media, I haven’t seen someone raising questions before.
The best question raised: could there be an increase in unemployment without an increase in productivity? Just because managers BELIEVE either AI makes workers more productive, or AI is more productive than workers.

See 549…
I don’t know that it’s an “amazing” use…but I recently found a recipe I wanted to try. All the measurements were in American cups, teaspoons, etc. I prefer to work in metric. Of course I could go figure out the conversions myself, but why? I dumped the list of ingredients into ChatGPT and said to give it to me in metric and cut the amounts in half. That worked pretty well.

That’s cool.
I used to change the cups/teaspoon recipes into metric. Then I went out and got me a set of cups and spoons and I prefer to work with them ever since. So much so that if a metric recipe makes it into my collection I change it to cups.
