I'm in South Tahoe this week.  It is very nice here, lots of blooming wild flowers and still some snow in the shade of the mountains.

That's an amazing week Ergo.  I could see why you live up in the higher elevation.

4/4 gym sessions last week.  This week will be a bit different, doing a lot of hiking and will probably only hit the gym on the weekend.

That's pretty cool, but I am not about to knowingly give my voice over to faking software.

Along these lines Wired just put together a documentary on AI which features the tech for deep fakes.

I just spent 5 minutes on it -- very youth oriented, I can;t see anybody over 25 spending much time on it.

This is potentially a big deal.  Apparently they are investing $1 billion into the program and want to bite with FBA.  I'm going to explore it.

Too bad they had to kill it.  I wonder how many years it takes for an alligator to get 12 feet long?

That's the problem with nuanced opinions Ergo.

Side note: ZeroHedge seems to want to make every American hide in their basement with a shotgun.

You ever see the movie Looker from 1981 RC?  It basically predicted this idea, though it was a thriller, so they killed off the actors to get out of having to pay royalties.
