Happy Friday!

Steve Nelson's "Twonks" https://www.twonks.co.uk/ cartoons often give me a chuckle. This one is no exception.

To me it points out one of the mistakes we seem to be making with AI - are we asking it to do the right tasks, or are we asking it to do a poor job at the things people are better at? When the dust settles, I hope we're getting AI to work for us, not the other way around.
