Appetizer Hollywood Writers Replaced?
by AI
Film and television companies in Hollywood now have writers on strike due to disagreements over contract arrangements. After failing to achieve a suitable deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) before May 11, 2023, the Writers Guild of America (WGA), which represents more than 12,000 writers in the entertainment industry, decided to go on strike on April 18, 2023. The residuals that authors earn for their work (2) are at the heart of the debate around the pay and equity structures for writers in the streaming age.
They have also expressed concern about AI taking their jobs, (And I don't really blame them) I have to wonder if going on strike might not just shorten the time frame? Will they just be replaced?
While AI writing assistants are still in their early stages of development, they have the potential to revolutionize the way that writing is done. In the future, it is possible that AI could replace writers in a number of different industries.
There are a number of ways in which AI could replace writers in the future. For example, AI could be used to:
Generate content on demand: AI writers and assistants can be used to generate content quickly and easily, without the need for human input. This could be useful for businesses that need to produce a lot of content, such as news organizations or marketing agencies.
Personalize content: AI writing assistants can be used to personalize content for different audiences. This could be useful for businesses that want to target their content more effectively.
Improve the quality of content: AI writing assistants can be used to improve the quality of content by checking for grammar and spelling errors, as well as by making suggestions for improvement.
Generate creative content: AI writing assistants can be used to generate creative content, such as poems, stories, and scripts. This could be useful for businesses that want to produce more engaging content

The next question to look at – when will actors be replaced by Ai? That will need to be discussed over your next lunch break

Endless Batteries
Main course:
Could This Be The Next Gold Rush?
California Lithium
Rechargeable batteries, rely heavily on the element lithium. Rechargeable batteries are in short supply; they're used in everything from cars to robots. Some of the challenges with these batteries are that the water supply, soil, ecosystems, and climate are all negatively impacted by lithium batteries. The extraction of lithium requires a significant amount of energy and water, and it has the potential to pollute local water supplies and destroy natural habitats. Rare earth metals, such as nickel and cobalt, are found in lithium batteries and are a considered to contribute to climate change, environmental damage. In addition, improper disposal of lithium batteries can result in environmental catastrophes due to the release of harmful compounds into the ground and water (2). Add to this that at this time most of the lithium comes from other countries Meaning the United States has no control over it.
California may save the day! California's Lithium Valley, located near the Salton Sea, may soon be the world's premier site for lithium mining and battery manufacture. Lithium can be efficiently and cleanly recovered from geothermal brine in the Salton Sea region. The state of California is on board with this idea, having set up the Lithium Valley Commission to assess the business and provide policy and incentive recommendations for the lithium sector.

Dessert Not appetizing and not technological.
This is not dinner conversation but……
I ran into this a couple of days ago and found it interesting on a personal level because, 25 years ago, I had to have my colon removed (ulcerative colitis). And had this option been available, I might not have had to live without my colon. At any rate, now people can, in fact, be compensated to defecate. This is due to the fact that fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) utilize the feces of healthy individuals for therapeutic purposes. In FMT, a healthy donor's feces are given to a patient suffering from a digestive problem like a Clostridium difficile infection. FMT has been shown to relieve symptoms by reestablishing a healthy bacterial balance in the patient's stomach of 2).
However, not everybody can provide a stool. To make sure the stool is safe and of high quality, there are stringent screening standards. Donors must be in excellent health and follow a healthy diet.
Several groups actively seek and compensate for stool donations. (not listed here)
You can apply to one of these businesses to check whether you meet the requirements to poop for money. If you donate your feces once a month, you might receive up to $2,800. Plus, you could end up being the one who saves someone else's life.
