I dont know, tech companies have been pretty hamfisted about getting AI in everyone’s face
Edit: Ah wait, now that I think about this longer despite my migraine, I think you’re right. Should be like a wedge that transitions to a giant butt plug.
It’s off center, but still balanced because it hasn’t fallen. I think the point was a more accurate metaphor would be a wedge with a curve, so as it gets shoved in more (and clearly we’re not done shoving it in yet), things get far more tilted, until…
In the sense of the metaphor, I think any of those things would have knocked it down long ago. Which says something about the odd resilience of our real systems. Not to mean they’ll stay that way, it’s just surprising sometimes.
Ypu have no idea how much energy is spent maintaining these old shits running. Spent a week trying to update a 18 year old application. For now, we failed.
Eh - I kind of want to see something that isn’t a perfectly shaped wedge that easily slipped in.

You seem to be missing how the whole thing is now precariously off-balance.

Until a vibration hits, or someone blows gently on the blocks at the top right.

I have an idea how much energy is spent trying to replace older working systems with crap that doesn’t. We definitely are failing.
Yeah same though. Can’t have nice thing when you keep piling crap on crap
