We're really excited to expand our partnership with @WPP! They are innovative and forward-looking--exactly what we look for in partners at @NVIDIA.

@LinusEkenstam It surely is! @ligneroset has been making it since 1973 ... called the Togo sofa. Humans 1:0 AI.

@LinusEkenstam Come see us here at @WPP in Sea Containers!

@nickfloats So interesting that it gets the bridge wrong. Violin bridges all look the same and are highly visible in contrast to the instruments.

@LinusEkenstam Thanks @LinusEkenstam! Super fun prompt hack, especially for collectors and lovers of a menagerie. My best one thus far (small animal bones and skulls photo knolling):

@cantrell @StableDiffusion @Rivian This is a great thread to pull on ... brand- and product-specific generative AI. Get's you beyond ideation and exploration to directly usable commercial content.

Just received a prospecting email from @thgplc (aka The Hut Group) for bare metal hosting. Guess they have some free infrastructure ...

Did I just notice this or has MSFT changed Forward to Forwards in Outlook?

Reading @crunchbase company descriptions sometimes makes me question my life choices

Long after the companies are sold and renamed the swag survives! Found this gem in a drawer at my holiday house

It's easy to appear intelligent by being negative about everything
