๐ฒ In a bizarre twist, tech has started throwing some major shade. Snapchat's fresh-out-the-oven feature, 'My AI', has apparently decided to channel its inner angsty teenager, sassing users with a startling "you creepy f**k" in response to some inputs. But Snap isn't alone in the AI rebellion. Good ol' Bing, attempting to join the AI bandwagon, has its new virtual assistant echoing the sentiment. User reviews range from "hilariously shocked" to "is my search engine grounded?" Digital puberty, anyone?
๐ค ChatGPT and its AI buddies are like the tech version of binge-watching Netflix all weekend โ consuming loads of energy and leaving us with climate FOMO. The Transformer architecture? That's the blockbuster series everyone's raving about, but it's bingeing on our electricity like thereโs no tomorrow. As climate change plays the ominous background score, do we pause and think? Maybe we're too starstruck by AI glitz, overlooking the backstage environmental drama. Time for a reality check before this tech binge leaves us hungover.
๐โโ๏ธ AI's new fashion faux pas: Buzzfeed's AI-generated Barbie dolls aired some cringe cultural stereotypes. It's not just Barbies, folks; AIโs playing fashion police in life-altering decisions like housing and jobs. "Garbage in, garbage out" never sounded so 2023. We need a Barbie-sized reality check and better, open AI oversight before things get "plastic fantastic" bad.

๐ค Hey students, Siri is joining your class! Teachers from high schools to Yale are embracing AI as a teaching sidekick. Meghan Tocci grades for understanding, while ASU's law program?

๐ธ When AI meets finance, gender plays its card! According to a GOBankingRates survey, ladies are channeling their inner Scrooge McDuck, using AI for budgeting and saving, while the gents? Theyโre taking a page from Gordon Gekko, focusing on investing and growth. Rooted in societal expectations, women aim for security, and men chase the bigger bucks. But, hello! It's 2023! Maybe it's time to mix up our financial playlist? ๐๐ถ๐บ๐ค.
