Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 18, 2021

ABBA will also do…

That’s how I got into an argument with Alexa! She wouldn’t play the NPR show I requested, and kept offering some music I’d never heard of.

Are her music videos hypnotic?

I wonder how Wiley will get us out of THIS one. If he can…

No Louis Prima for me, thanks. But make it Louis Jordan and we’ll talk.

You know there’s a problem when Danae is right.

Take the battery out of your phone before you go to bed… or maybe you can’t. Don’t buy Alexa … or is it too late?

Danae was referring to “Horse lips now” which she got from her pet who is a big fan of Robert Duvall.

Siri, Alexa. Which one of you is smarter?

A friend of mine said that they should develop Anti-Stupid Software so that, whenever a manager at work approached her with a terrible idea, she could exclaim, “Wait! Have you run this through your ASS?”

Dad obviously missed the 2013 movie, “Her.”

So the first phase is Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, and streaming entertainment?

If you’re going to jump, jive, and wail anyway, you might as well dance when you do it.

Step 1: If Siri and Alexa don’t want to tell you, they aren’t gonna tell you. Step 2: if Siri and Alexa want you in the dark you’re going to be in the dark. Step 3: you don’t wanna think about Step 3.

For moderns who have never heard Louis [pronounced Louie and Keely, their music might make an interesting change from the usual, especially during the current need to remain isolated. Lots of talent and lively interpretations.

Louie Prima , great stuff back is the 40 and fifties .

The first rule of Apocalypse? Nobody talks about Apocalypse.

I LOVE Louis Prima!

Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.

Louis was okay, but to distract me, offer Blues or Rock Blues. Nina Simone, Led Zep, Derek Trucks, Colin James, Randy Bachman, Buddy Guy. I’d be on another planet.

Louie Prima— now I’ve got “I wanna be like you./I wanna walk like you,/Talk like you, too./Oooo, ooobee dooo” going through my head.

So long as the A.I. is benevolent, bring it on.

Shades of ‘Robopocalypse’ by Daniel H. Wilson.

Only if Keely Smith is singing with him…

hey Marrria

Just don’t play that song, that Achy Breaky song.

Yeah, if the devices were going to plot together, they’re really going to be speaking to each other audibly – which limits their contact with other devices and which people can hear – rather than use their much more efficient connections to nearly all other devices over the network. Right.

Here is one offering Siri provided to me – “ A beginner’s guide to the AI apocalypse: Artificial stupidity”

louis Prima and Keely Smith…[:-)

Whatever you do, do Not buy that “Internet Ready” Chainsaw.
