~5 minutes. Eye contact. Auto-generated captions.

Summary: a self-described grumpy old man complains that the 14th of March is not Pi Day. Because only Americans write out their calendar days as Month, Day, Year. And the rest of the world writes it as either Day, Month, Year, or Year, Month, Day.

And 14.3 is not Pi.

But: the 22 of July is Pi Day. Because:

22/7 = 3.142857142857143

Calling strings of computer code "artificial intelligence," that you can train, and then give cute names....

Reminds me of the hobby of making elaborate marble tracks, and referring to the marbles as "athletes." Like this:

~8 minutes. Auto-generated captions. No eye contact.

Summary: a video of marbles rolling down an elaborate track, set up like a miniature "sports stadium," with many more marbles as "Spectators" in the "stands." Narrated in the fashion of a televised sports event, with graphics on screen, and recorded cheering crowd noises.

The Marbles are not athletes. They are not actually doing anything. They are inanimate objects rolling down a track designed and built by humans. Any difference in outcomes is due to infinitesimally small changes in surface friction on the track and manufacture of the marbles. All the rest is make-believe.

Amusing make-believe, and, in this case, a wonderful example of skill in building miniatures, script writing, and videography.

But I wouldn't trust a marble to evaluate a job application, or determine a jail sentence.
