So not only is AI stupid, but is a liar as well.  Looks like my job is safe.  I've had people tell me that my batch automation job will be replaced by AI one day.  Not a snowball's chance in hell will that happen.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

I asked one of my tennis partners to type in the first try for Wordle today.
He started it with CLOUD.
I finished in thirty seconds and was amazed.

Then I tried Wordley and finished in ...... thirty seconds.  Unbelievable.

Wordle and 247Wordley.com are excellent mind exercises.  I try to figure out the word of the day by the third entry.
In February, I got fifteen threes and one two on the last day.  I started out March 1, today, with four green letters on Wordle but due to the number of possibilities, it took me four tries.  Going to 247Wordley, I got that on the third try!  "So I got that goin' for me." - Groundskeeper played by Bill Murray in Caddyshack

I had to fold a map that one of the kids had been using.

THAT took a lot of brain power plus the patience necessary not to just toss it in the fireplace.  :cool:
