  8. "I'm a scientist, but since this is *THE FUTURE™️ *, and I'm a woman, I work in what is essentially a skimpy black swimsuit."

  13. I'm so sick of hearing about the future. What is that? The future is just another crappy version of the present. It's some bribe people offer you to make you do what they want instead of what you want.

  20. "Why Is Everybody Lying About What AI and 'Agents' Can Actually Do?
