  1. Say what you will about Springsteen but this is among his better tunes as far as I’m concerned. For what that’s worth. 😉

    So you been broken and you been hurt
    Show me somebody who ain't
    Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain
    But hell a little touchup
    And a little paint

    You might need somethin' to hold on to
    When all the answers they don't amount to much
    Somebody that you can just talk to
    And a little of that Human Touch

  2. 🤖💻 In a world where #AI can churn out Pomeranian-level prose in milliseconds, Jacob Filipp laments the loss of human #connection over endless virtual drivel. Remember the good old days when changing a person's mind required more than a cyber squawk? If only we could teach AI to care... or to write concisely. 🐶💡

  3. The Old Fears, Faster

    The fears about artificial intelligence are the fears about the internet, rerun at twice the speed. When the public internet arrived in the mid-1990s, four anxieties traveled with it. One concerned human contact, a sense that conversation would erode as it migrated to screens. Another concerned regional culture, a worry that local identity would flatten under a single global signal. A third concerned the limits of knowing, the prospect that anyone, anywhere, could learn anything with no curator to vet the source. The last concerned gatekeeping, the dread that quality would dissolve once newspapers, publishers, and broadcasters lost their grip. […]

  4. 🚫🤖 #SDL gives #AI the boot, banning AI-written commits like they're contagious. Guess even bots can't escape the wrath of overzealous #gatekeepers. Humans, your code is safe... for now. 😂🔒

  5. Human Touch

    The Boss releases his first major work without The E Street Band on March 31, 1992. It's famously released with another album -- Lucky Town. Human Touch was nominated for Best Rock Vocal Performance at the '93 Grammys. That's Randy Jackson on bass and Jeff Porcaro on drums. #brucespringsteen #theboss #springsteen #humantouch #90srock #rockmusic #90smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #jeffpocaro #jonlandau

    A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
    Devils can be driven out of the heart by the touch of hand on hand, or mouth on mouth. -Tennessee Williams, dramatist (26 Mar 1911-1983)

  7. A nighty night jam from the Boss and lyrically, a masterpiece. Maria McKee of Lone Justice was a great choice for backing vocals.

  8. Just spent 45 minutes rewriting an email so it sounds less like it was written by a haunted toaster trained on LinkedIn posts. I’m fine. This is fine. ✉️🤖 #AIwriting #HumanTouch

  9. BREAKING NEWS 🚨: #AI can scribble some code but can't build a #LEGO house 🏠. Turns out, wannabe tech moguls still need a human to turn their "vibecoded" dream into reality. Who knew AI wouldn’t replace CTOs? 🙄

  10. Honestly, fuck generative AI. It is robbing the humanity of people. It is a net negative to society. Human touch is very important for human beings to move forward in society.

    Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI:

  11. UK customers prefer human support over AI despite automation push: UK consumers show 83% preference for human customer service agents, though 30% would accept AI automation for lower prices in 8x8 survey of 2,000 adults. ppc.land/uk-customers-prefer-h #CustomerService #HumanTouch #AI #Automation #UKBusiness

  12. "🤖 Meet the invisible army of 'AI whisperers' who sweat and toil so Google's algorithms can pretend to be smart. 🌟 Spoiler: It's humans, not Skynet, doing the heavy lifting! 💼💤"

  13. 🚀 Breaking news: A middle-aged man discovers ⚠️ AI is not the silver bullet for coding drudgery! The horror! 😱 After two decades of keyboard mashing, he’s shocked that machines haven't replaced his beloved toil. 💾 Give me the shovelware, or give me death! 🏆

  14. What if machines could feel? A new electronic skin brings us closer to touch-sensitive robots that understand our world like we do. #Robotics #ArtificialSkin #HumanTouch

  15. 🚀 AI: The art of automating idiocy! 🤖 Software engineers are now speed-running their own obsolescence by trusting LLMs to do the thinking, presumably because human brains are soooo 2022. 📉 Thankfully, this essay was handcrafted by a human, ensuring maximum #irony and minimal innovation. 🙃

    Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
    Ain't gonna find no miracles here
    Well you can wait on your blessings darlin'
    But I got a deal for you right here

    I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity
    I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch
    I just want someone to talk to
    And a little of that
    Human Touch

  17. Klarna's brilliant plan: 🤖✨ #AI for customer service... until they needed humans 🧑‍💻🙄 again because, surprise, robots can't handle "human" problems. Who knew that people might prefer talking to other people? 🤷‍♂️ #InnovationFail

  18. Ah, the modern marvel of AI: it's so advanced it can even pass the Turing test... as long as the test is conducted by humans in the #Philippines. 🤖➡️👨‍💻 Fraudulent #fintech founder takes the "human touch" in tech to a whole new level. 🌏💸

  19. The evening’s “live” selection here on deck is, as far as I’m concerned, one of the best tunes lyrically from Springsteen.
