When the Good Guys Won
When the pitchforks and torches finally came and those in power cooperated or ceded control, the demand was simple: Do what we know you can do.
I Asked ChatGPT To Bully Me
Artificial Intelligence really sticks in my craw, but for different reasons than you might think. I find it overly positive, civil, and unwilling to berate me. So I set out to make ChatGPT bully me. After all, if the robot is going to take my job, I may as well justify hating it. All things considered, here are my results:

Note: We have elected not to include the Tarot images in this article. They are easily accessible online. I read Tarot virtually every night of the week for paying clients. The Tarot is simply an old-fashioned AI, a primitive computer program that proves the ancient dicta of "As Above, So Below."; i.e. the Macrocosm (the Universal Mind or Will), is reflected in the Microcosm (tea leaves, the layout of cards, Tarot images). The narratives revealed by Tarot are often startlingly accurate, and uncanny, and the layout unfolds the "narrative" revealed is an extrapolation of events in answer to the Querent's inquiry. The Reader's job is to tell the "story" as revealed and interpret the future based both on intuition and those arcane, timeless images.
Hello, Lover
10/788/14 s.d. Hello, Lover Sometimes these days for me move slower, as if this beautiful planet has been put in a state of pause. I feel the time passing in the briefest moments, watching the suns as they cross each other in the sky, seeing their colors when they set at night, I am reminded that the universe is moving around me, right in front of my eyes, but it seems that it is so fast and I am not sure whether it is better to move so fast and see nothing, or to stand so still and see everything.

Brendan ParkerPublished 5 months ago in FuturismNo Oasis
I’d fallen off the wagon, again, and felt ashamed of all that I had done to hurt my family. I was just fifteen years old when I had my first rum and Coke at a Las Vegas casino. It didn’t help that my parents had a well-stocked liquor cabinet at home. That began my lifelong misery of fighting and losing, getting my AA tokens, hitting the liquor store after a meeting with money I “borrowed.” Something about the intoxication seemed to be the anchor to my soul; nothing else could match it. Addiction is a disease, and I was fully infected.

The Devil's Playground
This machine is the perfect confessor. It need not forgive for it cannot be wronged. It does not confuse its thoughts with God’s. From behind this thickly folded curtain, ceremonial red, the absolution it offers is real, because its intention is pure: Listen. Understand. Counsel.

Maria's tears and screams had no effect on the Animal Control officers. Any adult onlooker would have realized the futility of her pleas, since the AI “brains” of her tormentors had no concept of empathy.

Guaranteeing safety, efficacy, and quality of drugs stands as utmost priority in the realm of pharmaceuticals. Historically, achieving this has leaned heavily on batch testing, where samples from each production batch undergo rigorous scrutiny before release. Yet, this method faces constraints, such as delays in product availability and the inability to detect certain deviations until after production. To tackle these hurdles, the concept of real-time release testing (RTRT) has emerged, offering the promise of more prompt and effective release of pharmaceutical products. At the core of RTRT lies continued process validation (CPV), facilitating ongoing assessment and assurance of product quality throughout the manufacturing process. Additionally, Annual Product Quality Review (APQR) plays a pivotal role in providing comprehensive evaluation of product quality over time, complementing CPV and RTRT endeavours.
