    Gotta love how AI is calling the shots in so many sectors these days. It makes for the perfect scapegoat. “Well the AI said so” is not a valid response in my mind, but those in charge clearly disagree. I’ve also read of situations where an AI will be ‘in charge’ but there will be a human on site to help out (or likely more accurately–take the fall when the AI fucks up)

They managed to squeeze all the way down from Dunkin’ Donuts to Dunkin’ to DD… I’m convinced they’re going to be the first major company to be named a symbol and people will call it DD or maybe they’ll even come up with a new sound that will represent their symbol, and you’ll have to get their app to make the sound 🫠
