Meanwhile, the organization behind National Novel Writing Month is being roasted online for not opposing AI. Meanwhile, a new survey shows teens are cutting back on vaping.

I did nanowrimo for eight years, if you wanted to cheat, nothing is stopping you. It was always meant to be a self use tool, a honor system and see if you can do it kind of thing. If you want to use AI to finish the word count and get the badge, fine, you won it without doing the work; but you aren’t going to get the same thing out of it that hitting the 1600ish daily word count average will do teaching you how to beat the inner critic (no time to think, just write!).

Not sure I agree with their position saying AI writing is a good thing though....

As of 9a ET - 140K jobs added - unemployment down to 4.2%...my stock portfolio jumped 2%-ish on the news...

5:09 The new Director for Labor and Statistics is extremely motivated by poltics. She told me she is OK with false data as long as it's not illegal.
I need to share her official email somehow. It's shocking.

Love the show guys. Realize you guys aren't trained economists, market analysts or financial experts, but I do think reading off your laptops detract from the show quite a bit. I say this with sincerity - have you guys considered spending some time researching the topics the day before?
