Today I received PR pitches from a Kayleigh and Kailee. I asked CoPilot to go through my emails and find other variations and it came up with the following: Kayleigh, Kailee, Kaylee, Kailey and Kailem. CoPilot also offered to set up a filter to group all these messages together. This was absolutely a productive use of my time and CoPilot resources.
"Please Use AI," by Shawn Smucker
Be sure to use AI when making
your next, I don’t know, meal plan,
for example. Definitely do not call
your friend who loves to cook and ask her
for her favorite recipes or tips or ways
to save time making meals,
because you will end
up talking for longer than you had hoped,
hearing, perhaps, about her father’s cancer
diagnosis or how lonely she’s been or even
what she’s planted in her spring
garden and then lost with the early frost.

Russell Davies is leaving Doctor Who
And there will be no Christmas special this year, but the show will return, presumably in 2027 or later.
I have mixed feelings. RTD was the man who brought the Doctor back to life more than 20 years ago. He and his team were brilliant. And that was my introduction to the Doctor; I never got into the series in the 20th Century.
But the previous two seasons, with Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, didn’t work for me. Nor did Jodi Whittaker’s seasons, nor Peter Capaldi’s overall, though he did have some excellent episodes and arcs. The last Doctor I loved was Matt Smith, and he left the show in 2014.
I’m ready to give the show a good long rest. But I’ll give it another try when it returns.
