It’s always good for the shareholders, as long as they can monetize it

I’m not sure why you haven’t gotten more upvotes.

To bring this full circle. “67” was used in a (semi?) popular song among Gen alpha, and unless they know this factoid, and that “67” is used as slang for the 10-67 police code in Philadelphia, then the placement of “67” in the lyrics of the song seems very odd at least, and completely random at best.

It seems that a nontrivial amount of Gen Alpha humor hinges on randomness, but as far as I’m concerned that’s not exclusive to their generation. My fellow millennials were ROFL-ing to some pretty random stuff in our glory days too, so that part I get. With Gen alpha one noticed that the less of a meaning something seems to have, the more they cling to it, and the funnier it becomes.

6-7 sits in such an obscure part of human knowledge that, until very recently, only a very small group even understood it, even now, I would say that number hasn’t really changed much. And because the meaning of 67 in the original lyric was unknown and presumed to not exist, making the lyric both random and meaningless, it’s become the funniest shit ever for the Gen alpha kids.

Look, anyone from Gen alpha, I love you. You guys keep doing what you’re doing. Let your freak flags fly. Do it while you can. As Baz Luhrmann said: “enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Nevermind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they’ve faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you’ll look back on photos of yourself and recall in a way that you can’t grasp now, how much possibility laid before you, and how fabulous you really looked.”

Cheers everyone.

Mine is off too. I’m usually too busy to bother with worrying too much about Google stealing my data. I’ve been using Google for so long that it’s too late for me.

Save yourselves.

“Should” is doing some serious work in your last statement.

As someone with ~72 TB of raw storage… Heh. Good luck.

Those words mean things. They might not make a lot of sense in the context we used them in, but they formed a thought.

6-7 isn’t even a semi complete concept on the surface of it. It’s literally devoid of any meaning at all.

I would agree that’s what people mean, but they’re completely overlooking that the problem has already been recognised, and addressed, with a solution that’s been around for decades.

It’s just that people take these modern amenities for granted, so they see them as part of the burden of doing the dishes or doing laundry, rather than relieving the burden of doing those things.

We can load up the dish washer and sit on our duff watching YouTube while a machine does the hard work. Then we just have to suffer through putting the dishes where we want them to go.

This is textbook “first world problems”. AI is only expected to solve these first world problems. By definition, these problems are less actually problems that need solving, and more inconveniences that we perceive as problems.

I’m just pointing this out, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who will…

We have machines to do the laundry and dishes for us already. We just have to set them up (put stuff in them) and they do the job for us.

When was the last time you saw someone get out the washing board?
