This is the best Pride moment I'll ever have. A little gay boy (when you know you know), maybe 7, ran up to me today and said, "What's your style?!" "What's...my style?" "Yes! What STYLE do you have?" "I'm too old to have a style!" He beamed at me. "I change MY style EVERY DAY." And he skipped away.
A dozen phone calls later, one of which was an extended horror-movie loop during which a bot tried to sell us MedicAlert necklaces and we could not leave, we finally got through to an antiquated device known as a "human." "Oh," she said. "Don't worry. The AI often reads reflections as scratches." x
Here's an AI horror story from our household today: We lease a car. It had a little tech problem. We took it in today and an hour later, we got a message saying, you know you're gonna have to pay [redacted absurd sum of $$] for those two big scratches. Us: What scratches? There are no scratches! >
I agree with all of that, but I still found the archives to be incredibly valuable when I was working on the Mike Nichols book. I would have killed to see even the worst possible taping of his original production of Streamers (which sadly, was never shot).
This would be a fantastic innovation with national impact on theater, and all it would take to make it happen is some institutional will and planning, and probably one deep-pocketed donor who loves the art form. playbill.com/article/alde...
Anyway, I'm putting this one right next to "Who's a real man?" "Who's a real Jew?" and "Who's authentically queer?" in a big file of discussions I never need to have again.
This whole "Who's a real New Yorker?" discussion is hilarious to me. I was born in NYC and have lived here all my life, so I'm definitely a real one. But I have always felt that the people who CHOOSE it are...maybe just a hair more real.
Followup: As I guessed it would, Masters of the Universe flopped, grossing just $29 million in the US. From the @thr.com story: "The biggest age demographic for the weekend was 45- to 54-year-olds." This kind of nostalgia is a niche business that Gen X male execs still think is a mass business.
