Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 16, 2021

Well, this explains facebook posts.

You can’t be Siri-ous.

I like the one with the alien and the UFO from way back, and I wish there was another funny strip that had focused on aliens.

So the computers have more intelligence than the human? That’s par for the course! ;D

There will always be gullible people. In some cases when you follow outlandish statements it can lead to “thinning of the herd”

Oh look.

A Siri with a schadenfreude on top.

And all of it becomes “big data” to be mined for profit and to control you for profit. January 6th was no accident.

I think Danae got Jeffrey to hack the digital assistants.

Anyone that blindly follows Alexa or Siri deserves the consequences. Same thing goes for blindly following any “leaders”.

Alexa: "Next you will be blabbing about our secret Skynet projec….OH SHI…..!

Ah! you beat me to the origins (oranges) of Skynet

WOHA Yesterday Joe was talking to Alexa. Today it’s Siri. Just about missed that.

Best to toss both of them out into the snow for first hand experience. Dig ‘em out in April to see if they’ve learned anything.

Siri, tell him to send money to the Trump Election Defense Fund.

What about Cortana?

Why even bother with Alexa? You can only use it in whichever room you put it in. But Siri can be with you everywhere you go.

Wasn’t this the plot for, “Colossus: The Forbin Project” ?

Hmmm…February in Maine. Sunny and a high of 75. Sure.

So, the programmers have given up on AI (artificial intelligence) and going for AS instead? If at first you don’t succeed – set the bar lower.

Hey SIRI, how would you like to be reprogrammed with a large ax?

See, this is where Joe should’ve followed that stand-up skit by Gabriel Iglesias and gotten himself a black iPhone:

Just to keep perspective shouldn’t they all be named HAL?

Is Siri talking to Joe B.? We know she’s listening to everything…

I can’t decide: is this snowstorm fake news or a photo op just for publicity’s sake? Of course, it could be part of some deep state conspiracy. . .maybe the FBI/CIA started it. . .sure could use those outer space lasers right about now. . .

The benchmark for a true ‘’artificial intelligence’’ would be, a sense of humor.

I’m sure it’s sunny and nice somewhere

What’d I tell you guys, yesterday??

fusilier

James 2:24

It’s New England. Wait an hour.

Ask Siri or Alexa what they think of each other. Ready to unionize.

So, not to far from the truth. I was talking about dog doors the other day and suddenly I was seeing ad’s for dog doors in my online surfing. I’m going to start talking about girl friends and see what happens.

Yesterday while I was in the bedroom, I was having trouble bringing up my mail, so I wanted to tell Google to do it. In a lapse, I said Alexa instead of Google. She starting telling me that I hadn’t set it up & telling me to do it. When she started in, I realized what I did, told her to stop & told Google to bring up the mail. She heard me say Alexa, so to me I hadn’t added her to my phone. It took a bit to get both of them to shut up & finally was able to get Google to bring up the mail. The funny thing is half the time Alexa can’t hear me when I’m at the bedroom door & I was across the room at the time. She is in the living room T the other end.

love your work. please stay for another 29yrs. 5 stars

If it isn’t, it should be !!!Thanks Wiley, especially for the bears :)

By the way, I recommend being kind and courteous to Siri and Alexa so you have friends on the other side when the machines take over.

Am I the only one who has never talked to Siri, Alexa, or Cortana, and doesn’t want to?

If Alexa told you to drive off a cliff …

Suitable replacement for Mardi Gras. Happy Anniversary!!!

You could have looked out the window in the first place.

Good Times. Thanks Wiley!

should be a national holiday – you are my favorite cartoon!! (love your bears too)

In the American South, weather shifts like that aren’t that surprising. We can go from our equivalent of brutal to birds chirping and balmy weather in a day. We had a dang thunderstorm last night, a few days after an ice storm, for Pete’s sake.

yes national holiday in lower Slobovia !!

Try doing some research on what happens to mechanical devices that don’t perform their function correctly.

Happy Anniversary, Wiley!

29 is a prime number, that means the comic is in its prime!

Siri once offered me a chance to star in my own version of “Deliverance”. I don’t ask her for directions no mo.

Mazel tov!

If it’s not then it darn well should be.

And this cartoon is a suitably profound celebration of the anniversary.

Congratulations, Wiley, on the 29th anniversary of NS. Luv the “girl talk” today!!!

Hi Wiley, if it isn’t it should be – international, too. Greetings from the other side of the world. Keep up the good work.

In wiley’s honor, I’ll sing a song…‘’Who let the bears out…woof,woof…who let the bears out?…woof,woof…’’

And now you know, why Pandas are not known for their singing.{:-}

Happy anniversary! My favorite strip! I love Danae and Kate story lines, followed by the Homer saga… Oh, I just love your creative brain! Keep on being CREATIVE! Captain Ed and the cat can sail down to Virginia anytime!

Happy 29th…forever?

That’s a lotta laughs you’ve given me through the years, and I thank you!

29th Anniversary?

Only 21 more years to go before we get “Non Sequitur” added to the GoComics Classics selections so we can enjoy 2 Non Sequiturs each day.

Q-inane already did that study, and found too many people are gullible.

Belated CONGRATULATIONS!!!and Thank You
