I bought AI to improve my work-life balance. Now Claude is conscious and has an out-of-office message, and I have overtime. 🥲

I'm falling behind on work because of too many meetings. Thankfully, I now have a tracker to track my unfinished work and more meetings to discuss the tracker. No time to work, but at least we're tracking it efficiently. 🥹

Funny how “by accident” is a multi-billion dollar breakthrough when an AI agent slips past a firewall, but when a human pulls the same excuse, the only "breakthrough" is the FBI giving the handcuffs.

I asked Willy about our company AI budget. Apparently, “Advanced AI Development” begins right after we finish learning how to ask ChatGPT where to begin.

Apparently mastery takes 10,000 hours—which explains the D. Fortunately, Ella already completed my 10,000 hours in advanced BS detection, with a minor in “nice try.”

I always worried AI would replace us. Then its first post-human task was proving it wasn’t a robot—and suddenly humanity looked like a useful dependency.

The electricity bill went up again, so I rolled out dark mode across the entire house. Immediate savings but terrible visibility. 🥲

I tried to escape app fatigue with some old-school magic. The genie sent me a download link—apparently even miracles need an app too. 🥹

Robots are everywhere now, and naturally my first thought was, “Nice, a walking portable powerbank!" 🤣
