That WSJ review is something special and I didn't have sound on or CC so I'm sure there's some weapons-grade stupid going on in dialog that I am missing. I stopped watching about when they put up a picture of Allen Turing (AI Pioneer!) and a picture of the "AI Pilot" who's first name is Turing and then highlighted that both have the word "Turing" in their names.
Also that overgrown Roomba with hip dysplasia took 5 minutes to put two glasses in a dishwasher poorly.
Oh God my brain is so used to turning typos into likely intended words that I missed "free-sprinted", which I'm going to guess in this context involves being athletic and horny and bottomless and possibly suffering from protein-powder-induced lead poisoning.
"remember 1-900 numbers? They're back! In AI form!"
Also I browsed other items on the site the phone came from and holy shit I have never seen a more cursed collection of products draped in Christmas shit.
Anybody else notice that the Ani responses seem to follow a formula, depending on the... sentiment I guess... of the input? All the defensive responses start with "hey", and end with crude rebukes. It all seems like xAI made an Eliza that will either flirt or swear.

At a recent job, I definitely saw malicious compliance/incompetence when it came to writing tests. My team and I would work hard to retrofit tests into older functionality and adjacent teams if they bothered to write tests would avoid testing anything of consequence.
Every email you don't delete is another dead fish, or another pasture unwatered. That promotional offer sent to your inbox that you ignored but did not dispose of means creeks will run dry. That evite for a party thrown by an acquaintance you don't particularly like that you did not drop into the trash means a marathon runner will go thirsty as the nectar of life so required is absent, consumed instead by the result of your inbox neglect.
Where are you getting "talented storyteller" from? The whole thing is some heavy-handed ham-fisted fever dream that I would expect from some liberal engagement farm. And "illustrated radio play?" What are you even on about.
The video looks like garbage and the rapid cuts are severely grating. The construction is lackluster and the content is garbage. It appears you have brought us a piece of the internet to throw into the garbage bin.
WTF I was doing all this in EMACS in 2008.
