@DevanCosta This is a rollercoaster ride

Warner Bros. shelved a finished Looney Tunes movie for the tax write-off. Ketchup Entertainment bought it for a reported $50 million and opened it two weekends ago at number two, with a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Matt Charney on that, the 116 layoffs at Pixar, and the liquidation sale at Tippett Studio.

The one thing about the implications of AI on society, privacy and individualism that apparently upsets #Boomers is that @ChatGPT sends texts now?

Most of them still don’t know how to do it for crying out loud.

A quick thought on fake candidates: all those AI solutions are predicted on the assumption that HR systems are actually fully secure and stable. They’re not. You’d be better off spending that money on more social engineering training.

[Matt Charney @mattcharney]

@HungLee Like, that’s pretty smart social engineering to be fair
