He used AI to Isolate John's voice from an old Demo. As long as a percentage of the proceeds of the song goes to John's estate, I don't think it's quite the same as AI ripping off artists.

Easter Island comes to mind. They showed up, took every tree on the island, then the vegetation went away and the island had nothing left to give.

I would even be happy with a small pickup like the old Datsuns or Mazdas. Instead my choices are Big-ass Toyota Truck or Ford Monster Truck or Dodge Monster Truck.

Nah, I can't say that about Star Link despite who the awful owner is. People rely too heavily on Star Link now and there's no competition. If you need a car you can buy a different EV, but they can't do the same for an Internet connection. However, this would be a great time for some other billionaire who sucks a little less to start a competitor.

Someone recently used that dumb phrase when telling me about not being able to get timely service at a restaurant. I said to them, "Well maybe they would want to if they were paid honest wages for honest work?" and we haven't talked since. I don't think we're going to be friends anymore.

Yup. As soon as I see a fancy toothpick in the picture, I know I should just leave.
